Low Carb Soul Bread
1 2/3 cup unflavored isolate protein powder, zero carb (NOTE)
1/2 tsp salt
1/3 tsp baking soda
1 tsp xanthan gum
2 1/2 tsp baking powder
1/4 cup olive oil
1/4 cup melted butter
2 drops liquid sucralose (or stevia), optional
4 eggs
12 oz cream cheese, softened
1/4 cup heavy whipping cream (or half and half)
1/4 tsp cream of tartar
Preheat oven to 325 degrees F. Prepare a 9 x 5 inch loaf pan.
Soften cream cheese. (45 seconds to 1 minute in a microwave works well.)
Melt butter and add to cream cheese. Add in olive oil, heavy whipping
cream (or half and half) and eggs. Blend well using a stick blender or
hand mixer.
Add baking powder and xanthan gum to an empty salt shaker and shake over
the liquid mixture. Mix well after each shake to avoid lumps.
Add protein powder, baking soda, salt and cream of tartar to a flour
sifter. Sift over the wet ingredients. Stir by hand just until mixed.
(Do not use a mixer or blender.) Do not over stir or the bread will
become dense.
Pour into a greased pan or silicone mold and bake at 325 degrees F for
45 minutes, or until golden brown. The bread may be dry on top but
adding melted butter helps if you're eating it right away. Once cool,
wrap in plastic to store.
Makes: 16 slices
Notes: Not all isolate protein powders produce great results. Nature's
Best ISOPURE Whey Protein and Hoosier Hill Farm Whey Protein Powder are
2 brands that tested well.
