Equipment

  • - Loaf pan (8x4-inch recommended)
  • Mixing bowls
  • - Hand or stand mixer with dough hooks
  • Whisk
  • Spatula
  • Parchment paper

Ingredients
  

  • #### Dry ingredients:
  • - 2 1/2 cups almond flour
  • - 1/4 cup coconut flour
  • - 1 tablespoon baking powder
  • - 1/4 teaspoon xanthan gum
  • - 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • #### Wet ingredients:
  • - 4 large eggs room temperature
  • - 1/4 cup unsalted butter melted and slightly cooled
  • - 2 tablespoons cream cheese softened
  • - 2 tablespoons powdered erythritol or your preferred keto-friendly sweetener
  • - 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • #### Egg wash:
  • - 1 egg yolk
  • - 1 teaspoon water

Instructions
 

  • #### 1. Preheat the oven:
  • Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Line an 8x4-inch loaf pan with parchment paper, allowing some overhang for easy removal.
  • #### 2. Mix the dry ingredients:
  • In a medium bowl, whisk together the almond flour, coconut flour, baking powder, xanthan gum, and salt. Set aside.
  • #### 3. Prepare the wet ingredients:
  • In a large bowl, beat the eggs, melted butter, cream cheese, powdered erythritol, and vanilla extract until smooth and well combined.
  • #### 4. Combine the dough:
  • Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet mixture, stirring until a thick, slightly sticky dough forms. Allow the dough to rest for 5 minutes to let the flours absorb moisture.
  • #### 5. Shape the dough:
  • Transfer the dough to the prepared loaf pan. Smooth the top with a spatula or damp hands to create an even surface.
  • #### 6. Add the egg wash:
  • In a small bowl, whisk together the egg yolk and water. Brush the mixture evenly over the top of the dough for a golden crust.
  • #### 7. Bake:
  • Bake the bread in the preheated oven for 35–40 minutes, or until the top is golden brown and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
  • #### 8. Cool:
  • Let the bread cool in the pan for 10 minutes before transferring it to a wire rack to cool completely.
