INSTRUCTIONS
- Preheat your oven to 350°F /180°C. Grease a 9 x 5-inch loaf pan or line it with parchment paper.
- In a large mixing bowl, add the eggs, heavy cream, sweetener, vanilla extract, and molasses (if using). Use an electric mixer and blend for 2-3 minutes or until the mixture becomes frothy.
- In a separate bowl, combine the dry ingredients: almond flour, coconut flour, ginger, cinnamon, cloves, nutmeg, and baking powder.
- Gradually mix the dry ingredients into the wet mixture. Add the softened butter and mix until a smooth batter forms. Allow the batter to rest for 5 minutes.
- Transfer the batter to the prepared loaf pan and use a spatula to smooth the top.
- Bake in the preheated oven for 45-50 minutes or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
- While the loaf is baking, prepare the frosting: In a large mixing bowl, combine cream cheese, butter, powdered sweetener, and vanilla extract. Use an electric mixer to beat the mixture for about 2 minutes or until it becomes smooth and creamy.
- Once the loaf is baked, remove it from the oven and let it cool completely.
- Once cooled, evenly spread the frosting and sprinkle some cinnamon or keto candied pecans.
