Ingredients

To make our keto egg loaf, we used the following seven ingredients.
- Cream cheese: To get that creamy cheesecake-like texture.
- Butter: We recommend unsalted butter. If possible, grass-fed butter is best.
- Eggs: Eight of them to be exact! The eggs make the loaf wonderfully soft, light and airy.
- Granular Erythritol: Our favorite is Swerve. It has the best taste without any aftertaste.
- Cocoa powder: For that rich chocolate taste. You can substitute with cacao powder.
- Vanilla extract: For flavor and sweetness.
For the topping, we sprinkle some confectioners erythritol on top. This ingredient is optional.

How to Make Keto Chocolate Egg Loaf
The full instructions are detailed in the recipe card at the end of this post.
But we wanted to give you step-by-step instructions, so you know exactly how to make this low-carb egg loaf.

- A) Make the Batter - Mix all the ingredients in a large mixing bowl for several minutes until totally smooth. You can whisk the mixture, use a blender, or you can use an electric hand mixer.
- B) Transfer to a Round Cake Pan - Line a 9-inch round cake pan with parchment paper and pour the batter into the lined pan.
- C) Bake the Loaf - Bake in the oven for 40-45 minutes at 350°F.
- D) Slice and Serve - Sprinkle some confectioner erythritol over top of the loaf, then cut into 8 pieces.

Recipe Notes and Tips
- Line your pan. Make sure to line your cake pan with parchment paper so that the egg loaf is easy to remove once baked.
- Combine the batter well. You want a smooth batter with no lumps. The easiest way to do this is with an electric mixer or high-speed blender. You can use a hand whisk but it will take longer.
- Let the egg loaf set up. The egg loaf will rise as it bakes and become dense. You will know it is done when the loaf is firm and it is set in the middle.
- Make a triple layer cake. This recipe is for a one-layer keto egg loaf. However, if you want to make a cake-style dessert, you can bake three separate keto egg loafs then stack them on top of one another once they're completely cooled. You can use a keto frosting recipe to keep them stacked together.
Frequently Asked Questions
The egg loaf will rise as it bakes and become dense. You will know its done when the loaf is firm and it is set in the middle.
Let the loaf cool to room temperature before placing in an air tight container. It will keep well in the fridge up to 7 days. But we doubt this egg loaf will last that long!
This keto egg loaf tastes incredible on its own, but you can serve it with a low-carb berry syrup.
Strawberries, blueberries, raspberries, and blackberries can be great on the keto diet in moderation - they are low-carb fruits that can (and should) be enjoyed every once in a while!
Just put a cup of berries in a saucepan over medium heat. Add in 2 tablespoons granular erythritol and still continuously until the berries have broken down.
Remove from heat and pour over the egg loaf!

I need to use up a lot eggs. Can this be frozen in slices?
Thank you.
Clean Keto Lifestyle
Hi Lynda! We haven't tried freezing it, but it should work out ok. Just bake it, let it cool, slice, and then store in the freezer. Let us know how it turns out!
Helen Call
Quick easy recipe and I had all the ingredients to hand! Mine was a bit eggy but maybe that was because I used large eggs.
Johanna
Made it with coconut sugar so not keto but still very good! Feels like it can be actually a good breakfast option!
Can the cream cheese be swapped by sour cream? For the same fat ratio.
I wonder if the cream cheese texture is a must in this recipe ?
Clean Keto Lifestyle
Hi Johanna! So glad you like it! We have never tried it with sour cream. It may be a little too watery. If you do try it make sure to use full-fat and let us know how it turns out!
