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 sugar free sweetener plus 2 tablespoons, your choice
8 eggs, set out at room temperature
1 1/2 Tablespoon vanilla extract
1 vanilla bean, seeds scraped - you can use an extra tablespoon on vanilla extract if you do no have access to vanilla beans
1/2 tsp Salt
8 oz cream cheese, softened
3/4 teaspoon baking powder

Cream Cheese Frosting: Optional

8 Oz cream cheese, softened
1/4 cup sugar free sweetener
2-3 tbsp heavy whipping cream, use one at a time for desired thickness
1 tablespoon vanilla extract

Instructions:

Preheat your oven to 350°F and get ready for your kitchen to smell amazing soon! 😍

In a large mixing bowl, beat together the cream cheese, butter, and sweetener until the mixture is smooth, fluffy, and creamy. A hand mixer works great here for that velvety texture! 💪

Add in the eggs and vanilla extract, then mix again until everything is fully combined and looking delicious.

Now add your dry ingredients — almond flour, coconut flour, baking powder, and salt — and continue mixing until the batter is nice and smooth with no clumps in sight. 🎯

Spray your loaf pan(s) with non-stick cooking spray. You can use three mini loaf pans or one regular-sized loaf pan— whatever you have on hand!

Pour in the batter and pop them in the oven!

For mini loaves, bake for about 35 minutes
For one large loaf, bake for about 60 minutes

To check for doneness, insert a toothpick or knife into the center. If it comes out clean, your loaf is good to go. If there’s any batter sticking, give it a bit more time. ⏱️

🍰 Time for the Vanilla Frosting!

While your loaf is baking, whip up this dreamy vanilla frosting! 💕

In a medium bowl, combine:

Truvia sweetener
Softened cream cheese
Vanilla extract
Heavy whipping cream

Blend it all up using a hand mixer on high speed until it’s smooth, fluffy, and irresistible. 😋

💡CWT Pro Tip: Wait until the loaf is completely cooled before frosting — or your beautiful icing will melt right off into the cake. (Still tasty, but not as pretty! 😉)

Notes:

Soften cream cheese to room temperature and cream well to a smooth consistency. 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. 😉
