Ingredients
- 5 large eggs
- 2 cups almond flour
- 2 tbsp coconut flour
- 1 cup cranberries fresh or frozen
- 2 tsp orange extract
- 1 tbsp orange zest
- 1/3 cup heavy whipping cream or coconut cream
- 3/4 cup sweetener
- 3 tbsp butter or coconut oil, softened
- 1 1/2 tsp baking powder
Sugar-Free Keto Orange Glaze
- 4 tbsp cream cheese softened
- 4 tbsp heavy cream
- 4 tbsp powdered sweetener
- 1 tsp orange extract
Instructions
- Preheat the oven. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a 9×5-inch loaf pan or line it with parchment paper, leaving some overhang on the sides.
- Mix the wet ingredients. In a large mixing bowl, add the eggs, granulated sweetener, heavy whipping cream, orange extract, and orange zest. Beat with an electric mixer for about 2 minutes, until slightly frothy and well combined.
- Add the dry ingredients. Add the almond flour, coconut flour, baking powder, and softened butter. Mix until everything is incorporated and a slightly thick batter forms.
- Fold in the cranberries. Using a spatula, gently fold the fresh or frozen cranberries into the batter until evenly distributed. If using frozen cranberries, there's no need to thaw them first.
- Transfer to the pan. Pour the batter into the prepared loaf pan and smooth the top with a spatula.
- Bake. Bake for 45–50 minutes, or until the top is golden and a skewer inserted into the center comes out clean or with a few moist crumbs. If the top browns too quickly, loosely cover it with aluminum foil.
- Cool. Let the bread cool in the pan for 10–15 minutes, then carefully transfer it to a wire rack and allow it to cool completely.
- Make the orange glaze. In a medium bowl, combine the softened cream cheese, heavy cream, powdered sweetener, and orange extract. Whisk until smooth and creamy. For a thinner glaze, add a little more heavy cream, one teaspoon at a time.
- Glaze and serve. Once the bread is completely cool, spread or drizzle the orange glaze over the top. Slice into 12 pieces and enjoy!
