Used a 9x5 loaf pan and 55 mins was wayyyy too long. Going to have remake it. Inside tasted good though. I also used only 4 eggs, 1 tsp of cinnamon, and 1 tsp of vanilla extract.

I just use 300ml egg whites in my bread whisk them to stiff peaks with cream of tartar to stabilise then fold in other ingredients, I also add a bit of psyllium husks, no sweetener and oil oil to replace the fat of the yolks. It turned out great!

Easy to make, a bit eggy -I used 5 eggs but overall good/ I did add cinnamon and dark chocolate chips-

Way too eggy with only 4 eggs. I had to add cinnamon, vanilla to have any flavor.

I just started Keto and have a serious sweet tooth. This hit the spot! I looked at previous posts and went with the 4 eggs, I used Swerve granular, it's what I had. Might try next with Swerve brown sugar. But I did use all 3/4 cup of Swerve in there. I also added vanilla tsp and cinnamon tsp, as suggested in another post. Y'all I loved it! I promptly doubled the recipe and am now baking some big sized muffins for the week. The tips also mentioned using parchment paper to line the bottom of the bread pan and have it over flow a little on the sides so you can pop the bread right out. Tried that too, worked like a charm. Ibstill sprayed with pam olivenoil, then put in the parchment paper runner. All in all, that aforementioned sweet tooth was happy today, and I'm still keto. And...I got to use some of the zucchini growing so abundantly in my garden. Win win win!

Thank you for taking time to write this review. I'm tired of wasting my time making nasty food. Just because the picture looks good, doesn't mean it is. Thanks for the tips!

Just made this following all the advice of 4 eggs and no sugar. My loaf tin was a little large since it didn’t rise, so will try that next time and add some of the other suggestions. Cooked 50mins in a buttered silicone dish and it came out easily and tasted lovely 😊

Could I use Splenda brown sugar replacement or even monk fruit sugar instead? Swerve just doesn’t seem to taste good to me.
Sher Healthy 4 Life 2 years ago
I am sure that will work. I used Lankanto monk fruit and it was good!

Extremely eggy with no flavor. Will not make again.
SpectacularRadish632071 2 years ago
I wonder if adding a teaspoon of vanilla would help the flavor

Can this be frozen?
FortuitousCauliflower627072 9 months ago
Yes. It can be frozen. I make them weekly for a client. After loaf cools, slice them. I then wrap individually in cellophane wrap then place them all into a large Ziplock. This way, you can take out however many you want to at a time. You can freeze the whole loaf and muffins the same way. I hope this helps you.

Excellent! Hard to believe that it’s keto friendly. I used only 4 eggs and a half cup of swerve sugar and it was just fine.

I loved the texture of this. Did make some changes though. I only used 4 eggs and added a teaspoon of cinnamon and a teaspoon of vanilla. I make this all the time.
UnbelievableRadish332021 3 years ago
This turned out really good! I used only 4 eggs and only 1/3 cup of Swerve brown sugar. I had trouble getting it out of my loaf pan even though I greased it with butter. I am going to make it again since I have more zucchini to use up.
Just_Juju 2 years ago
I just learned a great way to get these breads out of pan. After greasing all sides of the pan, cut a sheet of parchment paper as long as the long side of the pan, but no longer, and wide enough that excess inches hang over both long sides. Then place the parchment in the pan and press down on bottom and sides so the grease holds it in place. The parchment should not hang over or go up the edges on the short ends. Make sure those were well greased. Then grease the bottom and sides of the parchment surfaces. When bread is done you simply lift the parchment by the overhang and set the bread on the cooling rack.

After you butter the pan, sprinkle a coating of almond flour over the butter.

This is delicious and moist yum the only thing I can say is it in no way needed that much sugar its way too sweet I’d only use a table spoon or even none. Definitely keen to make this savoury for breakfast yum!

I used 4 eggs only 35g sugar replacement I add some parmesam,Also I whisked the egg white separately and folded them in,I used a small loaf tin should have used the normal life tin. I had some mixture left over so I used a ramekin microwave for 3.5 minutes ate this while I was waiting yummy with a nob of butter.

I made a cheesey savoury loaf with some of the mentioned tweeks and it was absolutely 5*'s for texture, flavour and consistency! Only 4 eggs not 6 No sweetner/sugar Added 3 tablespoons of parmasean granules Topped w. 1/2 teaspoon of blue poppy seeds Baked at 180c for 40 mins in a buttered silicon loaf mould. It cut nicely into 16 slices & I split them into 3 slice portions as a breakfast or lunch base option. It looks exactly like the picture. Ate 1st portion warm from the oven with a slick of butter on top...OMG, OMG, OMG tasted like warm cheese straws x'd with a hot buttered toast feeling. Flippin' delicious. I could definitely see this working with lemon 🍋 like a lemon drizzle type cake!!
RemarkableRadish748946 2 years ago
Thankyou so much for your suggestions! I followed what you did (except added fresh Parmesan), added a few chopped semi-dried tomatoes and cooked it in a muffin tin (8 serves). Served them warm with sour cream and a little sugar reduced chutney. Delicious!!!

I want to make this and don’t have any Swerve. In comparing nutritional facts, Swerve has 4g carbs per tsp and regular brown sugar has 4.5g carbs per tsp. Considering this, there’s really no major benefit in using Swerve. Am I missing something?

Additionally erythritol (Swerve) is digested differently than all other sugar alcohols. It never makes it to the liver and leaves via our urine in under 24 hours. It’s the lowest sugar alcohol on the glycemic table with only a 1 index. The amount per serving definitely won’t impact blood sugar or spike insulin at all. That’s why it’s deducted the way fiber is.
MirthfulAvocado411231 2 years ago
Yes because the swerve won’t spline insulin and the carbs don’t count as bet carbs.
SpectacularRadish501958 3 years ago
Swerve is made with sugar alcohols and therefore net at 0 carbs, where as regular sugar counts all carbs. Sugar and sugar alcohols differ significantly in sweetness, calorie content, and digestion, as well as their effect on blood sugar levels.

I just made this with coconut flour. To adjust for that I added 1/2 cup of water and didn't squeeze the zucchini out. I also cooked it for 45 min at 375 degrees. Probably could have taken it out sooner. I cut the sugar down to 1/2cup but kept the 6 eggs. It definitely has an eggy taste but I don't mind it. I would probably add more zucchini next time and lower the coconut flour a bit. Otherwise it's really yummy and fluffy. I also think it might be better as muffins instead of bread.

Do I have to use swerve? I already have Eryrhritol.
jluna89 3 years ago
Used 4 eggs as others did but need to use 1/3 c sweetener next time. Also need to cook in less time since my loaf pan is big. Tasted good though!
