Keto Egg Loaf
Description
This recipe combines six large eggs with cream cheese, melted butter, coconut flour, baking powder, and spices like cinnamon and nutmeg. The mixture is processed until frothy, then baked in a loaf pan lined with parchment paper. Baking for 40-45 minutes yields a golden top and set crumb, with the option to cover the loaf if browning too quickly.
The texture is light and airy due to thorough mixing, with gentle warmth from cinnamon and nutmeg complementing the mild sweetness. The coconut flour provides structure without grains, fitting ketogenic diet needs. The loaf can be sliced into ten servings and eaten fresh or after refrigeration.
This loaf stores well and reheats nicely; slices can be fried in butter to mimic French toast. Freezing pre-sliced portions with parchment paper between slices prevents sticking and allows convenient thawing. Adjusting egg preparation by whipping whites separately can improve loaf stability and reduce sinking.
Ingredients
- 6 egg large, room temperature
- 6 oz / 170g cream cheese
- 4 tbsp / 30g coconut flour
- ¼ cup / 50g butter melted
- 2 tbsp granulated sweetener or more, to taste
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
- ½ tsp cinnamon
- ¼ teaspoon nutmeg
Instructions
- Pre-heat the oven to 350 F / 175 C electric and line a loaf tin with parchment paper.
- Mix the eggs, cream cheese, melted butter and erythritol in a food processor or high speed blender until frothy. Alternatively, use a tall mixing jug and a handheld electric blender.
- Add the rest of the ingredients and blitz briefly until combined.
- Pour the mix into the prepared loaf tin and bake for 40-45 minutes or until a toothpick inserted comes out clean. Tip: Check the keto egg loaf after 25 minutes. Once it is golden on top, cover it loosely with a sheet of aluminium paper to prevent excessive browning.
Notes
- The loaf makes ten slices with about 1.3g net carbs each, suitable for keto diets.
- Store refrigerated for up to 5 days; freeze for up to 3 months with parchment paper between slices to avoid sticking.
- Frying slices in butter creates a texture similar to French toast.
- Using a smaller loaf pan yields a taller shape and less sinking; whipping egg whites separately can improve structure and prevent the center from sinking.
