Keto Vanilla Loaf with Cream Cheese Frosting
Servings: 12
Prep Time: 10 Minutes
Cook Time: 1 Hour
Ingredients:
Vanilla Loaf:
2 cups almond flour
1/4 cup coconut flour
1/2 cup butter
1/4 cups Truvia sweetener plus 2 tablespoons – Or sweetener of your choice. (Remember there are different conversions for your choice.)
8 eggs set out at room temperature
1 1/2 tablespoon vanilla extract
1 vanilla bean, seeds scraped
1/2 tsp Salt
8 oz cream cheese, softened
1.5 tsp Baking powder
Cream Cheese Frosting: Optional
8 Oz cream cheese, softened
1/4 cup Truvia sweetener
3 tbsp heavy whipping cream
1 tablespoon vanilla extract
Instructions:
Preheat the oven to 350 degrees.
In a large mixing bowl, cream together cream cheese, butter and truvia sweetener until a smooth consistency.
Add the eggs, vanilla extract and continue mixing it with the hand mixer until all ingredients are blended together.
Finally, add the almond flour, coconut flour, baking powder, and salt and mix until there are no clumps in the batter.
Make sure to spray the loaf pans with a non-stick cooking spray. Pour the batter into three mini bread pans or one regular size bread loaf pan.
Bake the three mini loaf pans for about 35 minutes or one loaf pan for about 60 minutes. You want to stick a toothpick (or knife) in the center of the vanilla loaf to test to make sure the middle is done. When you remove the toothpick, it should be clean. If there is any batter on it, it needs to bake for a bit longer.
While the loaf is baking, start making the vanilla frosting.
In a medium size bowl, combine the Truvia sweetener, cream cheese, extract and heavy whipping cream. Use a hand mixer and blend it on high until all the ingredients are smooth and creamy.
Wait until the vanilla loaf has completely cooled before you apply the frosting or else it will melt into the cake.
Notes:
Soften cream cheese to room temperature and cream well to a smooth consistancy. This will avoid lumps as seen on my loaf. There is nothing wrong with this and doesn't affect the taste. You may feel a creamy pocket of cream cheese on your palette.
