Low-Carb/Egg Fast Pumpkin Spice Loaf


What are you craving?? I seem to always be craving sweets, especially when I'm doing an Egg Fast. I need something sweet to go with all the eggs that get bland after five days of fasting... ya know what I mean?!?! You know you do if you've ever completed an Egg Fast! 

Here's a simple recipe that satisfied my sweet tooth and my desire for pumpkin spice!! 🎃

Ingredients 
- 6 eggs
- 6 oz cream cheese
- 6 tbsp coconut oil
- 3 tsp pumpkin spice, which I made by mixing the individual spices: 1.5 tsp cinnamon (I added an extra tsp to my mix= 2.5 total tsp), 3/4 tsp nutmeg, 3/4 tsp ginger, and 1/4 tsp cloves 
- 5 squirts liquid Stevia - I used this one: 

Instructions 
- preheat the oven to 350
- melt cream cheese and coconut oil in microwave 
- add spices to the bowl
- add eggs to the bowl
- mix all ingredients together using a hand mixer 

- spray bread pan with a spray oil 
- pour mixture into bread pan 

- bake in oven for 30 mins 

When the loaf is done baking, it will be "big" because it has risen, but it will quickly deflate. 


Because I forgot to spray my bread pan with a spray oil, it stuck, so make sure you spray your pan!! 

Slice your loaf into 6 slices so that each slice is 1 egg, 1 fat, 1 cheese. 


Fall flavor in the Spring time! Yummm!!

Enjoy!!

  4. This sounds wonderful and I can't wait to try it a little later today! I'm thinking about using cinnamon and vanilla instead of pumpkin pie spice. I'm also considering using cacao powder for a chocolate version. What do you think?

  5. Could I sub mayo for the cream cheese? I don’t do dairy.

  6. Could I make this recipe with just 3 oz of cream cheese instead of 6?

  7. I made this yesterday. It sunk while still in the oven. Ended up about an inch high. Doesn't taste bad but sure isn't bread-like. Heavy and dense. I'm going to put sugar free syrup over it!
