1/2 teaspoon salt
4 oz (1/2 cup) cream cheese, softened
3 large eggs
1/4 cup unsalted butter, melted
1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
1/2 cup fresh or frozen cranberries
For the Icing (Optional):
1/2 cup powdered erythritol
1-2 tablespoons unsweetened almond milk
1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract


Instructions:

  1. Preheat Your Oven:
    Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a 9×5-inch (23×13 cm) loaf pan.
  2. Mix Dry Ingredients:
    In a mixing bowl, whisk together the almond flour, granulated erythritol, baking powder, and salt.
  3. Combine Wet Ingredients:
    In another bowl, beat the softened cream cheese until smooth. Add the eggs, melted butter, and vanilla extract. Mix until well combined.
  4. Mix Wet and Dry Ingredients:
    Pour the wet ingredients into the bowl with the dry ingredients. Stir until you have a smooth batter.
  5. Add Cranberries:
    Gently fold in the fresh or frozen cranberries. If using frozen cranberries, no need to thaw them.
  6. Transfer to Loaf Pan:
    Pour the batter into the greased loaf pan and smooth the top.
  7. Bake:
    Bake in the preheated oven for 40-50 minutes or until the top is golden brown and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean. The exact time may vary, so keep an eye on it.
  8. Cool:
    Allow the bread to cool in the pan for a few minutes before transferring it to a wire rack to cool completely.
  9. Make the Icing (Optional):
    In a small bowl, whisk together the powdered erythritol, unsweetened almond milk, and vanilla extract until you have a smooth icing. Adjust the milk amount for your desired consistency.
  10. Ice the Bread (Optional):
    Once the bread has cooled, drizzle the icing over the top.
