Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 cups Almond flour
- 2 tablespoons Coconut flour
- 1 teaspoon Baking powder
- 0.25 teaspoon Salt
- 1 teaspoon Xanthan gum
- 0.5 cup Unsalted butter, melted
- 4 ounces Cream cheese, softened
- 4 large Eggs
- 2 large Egg yolks
- 2 tablespoons Erythritol
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
- 1 teaspoon Instant yeast
- 2 tablespoons Warm water
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a loaf pan with parchment paper or lightly grease it.
In a small bowl, dissolve the instant yeast in warm water and let it sit for about 5 minutes until it looks foamy.
In a large bowl, combine the almond flour, coconut flour, baking powder, salt, and xanthan gum. Stir well to ensure all dry ingredients are mixed.
In another bowl, beat the eggs and egg yolks together. Add the melted butter, cream cheese, erythritol, and vanilla extract to the eggs, and mix until smooth and creamy.
Add the yeast mixture to the egg mixture and stir to combine.
Gradually add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients, mixing continuously until a smooth, albeit thick, batter forms. The batter will be denser than traditional brioche dough.
Pour the batter into the prepared loaf pan and smooth the top with a spatula.
Place the loaf pan in the preheated oven and bake for 25 to 30 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean and the brioche is golden brown on top.
Remove from the oven and allow to cool in the pan for about 10 minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely.
Slice and serve your low carb brioche generously with butter or your favorite low-carb spread.
