Ingredients

8 large eggs room temperature
8 ounces cream cheese room temperature
4 tablespoons unsalted butter melted
1 pinch salt

Optional additions

1/3 cup coconut flour optional
2 teaspoons vanilla extract optional
1 teaspoon baking powder optional
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon optional

Instructions

Preheat your oven to 350ºF and grease a loaf pan.
Combine all ingredients in a blender and mix until smooth and well combined. You can add vanilla extract or cinnamon, or even sweetener. Set aside.
Pour the batter into the greased pan. Sprinkle the top of batter with additional cinnamon or other keto toppings of your choice (see Notes for ideas).
Transfer to the oven and bake for 30-40 minutes or until the top of the loaf is a golden brown color and it is not jiggly, but . The loaf will rise in the oven but deflate once it’s out of the oven and cooled down.
Allow egg loaf to cool for 10-15 minutes prior to slicing and serving.

Notes

Use room temperature ingredients. This step is very important, because you don’t want clumps of cream cheese throughout your loaf.

Feel free to change some things up! You could add a handful of sugar free chocolate chips or low carb berries to the batter. Another idea is to add runny peanut butter on top of the batter, then use a pointy knife to make swirls.

Serving suggestions: You can serve the keto egg loaf as it is or take it one step further and cut thick slices of loaf. Then melt a little butter in a pan and toast your slices. Sprinkle some cinnamon and serve as it is or with more butter, cinnamon, nutmeg or even sugar free syrup. If you are feeling fancy, add a few berries too!

Storing: Store the keto egg loaf in an airtight container in the fridge and use within 5 days.

To make into French toast, slice the egg loaf and fry in butter until golden brown.

You can also bake in an 8x8 baking pan, just watch your cook time.

Adding coconut flour helps give the eggloaf more of a bread like texture. But you can leave it out and have a fantastic egg loaf. Adding baking powder will help the egg loaf rise and give it a fluffiness to it.
