This Egg Loaf Needs a Better Name...
My son loves the coconut flour pancakes that I make for him. Confession: I don’t like making them. It’s hard you guys! They stick to the pan, or I don’t pay attention and burn them, Sometimes I just don’t have the time to stand there.
I stumbled across a recipe for “Egg Loaf” and thought I’d give it a try.The only trouble was that every recipe I came across had coconut flour, or almond flour. I really didn’t want to use either for the coconut flavor, and the almond is a ‘no go’ because of my daughters allergy to almonds.
What’s a girl to do? I rifled through my pantry and found the flax meal that my husband uses for keto breads and bagels!! It worked beautifully!!
This is so yummy, it deserves a name better then “Egg Loaf”. I’m open to suggestions!
I cut it into 12, each serving being 2 slices.
Maybe I’ve been eating this way too long but these reminded me of BK French Toast Sticks from another lifetime.
To reheat just throw the slices into a frying pan on medium heat. No need to use additional fat to grease the pan since these are chock full of butter! These will toast up nice!
4 Eggs
4 oz softened cream cheese
4 TBS softened butter
3 TBS ground flax meal
1 TBS erythritol (I used Swerve confectioners)**
1 tsp pure vanilla extract
A sprinkle of cinnamon
Instructions:
Preheat the oven to 350*
Using coconut oil grease a glass loaf pan.
All all the ingredient to a bowl and combine using a hand mixer. This will take a few minutes to get the cream cheese good and smooth.
Pour you mixture into the loaf pan and bake at 350* for 30 minutes (
All ovens vary. I suggest checking at the 20 minute mark and in 5 minute increments from there.
Allow the loaf to cool a bit. Mine turned right out onto a plate.
Slice into 12, 2 slice servings.
Serve with berries, whipped cream, melted almond butter, sugar free maple syrup…

Pro Tip: If you only have granular swerve you can pulse it in a blender or food processor until fine like confectioners)
