Carnivore Bread Recipe
Ingredients:
- 12 large eggs
- 1/2 cup (115g) butter, melted
- 1/2 cup (120g) cream cheese, softened
- 1/2 cup (120ml) heavy cream
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
- Optional: 1 tablespoon gelatin powder (for added structure)
Instructions:
- Preheat the Oven:
- Preheat your oven to 325°F (160°C).
- Grease a loaf pan or line it with parchment paper.
- Prepare the Wet Ingredients:
- In a large mixing bowl, whisk the eggs until well beaten.
- Add the melted butter, softened cream cheese, heavy cream, and salt. Mix until smooth and well combined.
- Add the Dry Ingredients:
- In a separate small bowl, mix the baking powder with the gelatin powder (if using).
- Gradually add the dry mixture to the wet ingredients, mixing thoroughly to combine.
- Mix the Batter:
- Use an electric mixer to blend the mixture for a few minutes until it becomes smooth and slightly frothy. This helps to incorporate air and give the bread a better texture.
- Bake the Bread:
- Pour the batter into the prepared loaf pan.
- Bake in the preheated oven for 45-55 minutes, or until the top is golden brown and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
- Cool and Slice:
- Let the bread cool in the pan for about 10 minutes.
- Transfer the bread to a wire rack to cool completely before slicing.
Tips:
- Texture: The gelatin powder is optional but helps to give the bread a slightly firmer texture. You can omit it if you prefer a softer bread.
- Storage: Store the bread in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to a week. It can also be frozen for longer storage; slice before freezing for convenience.
- Serving Suggestions: Use this bread as you would any other bread: for sandwiches, toast, or as a side to your meals. It’s especially good toasted with a bit of butter.
Enjoy your carnivore bread!
