Note: Each slice of bread yields only 3.6 grams of carb.
Ingredients:
12 ounces cream cheese, soft
5 eggs
1 cup mashed bananas (about 3 medium-size bananas)
½ cup soy protein powder
1 Teasp baking powder
16 packets Splenda sugar substitute
2 Teasps vanilla extract
2 Teasps grated lemon peel (optional)
1 cup unprocessed wheat bran
1 cup whole almond meal
Preheat oven to 325ºF. Lightly butter three mini loaf pans (use
non-stick pans made of heavy0gauge metal). Optional: For easy
cleanup and removal, cut strips of waxed paper to fit in the bottoms of the
pans and allow them to hang over the edge by an inch or two.
Put cream cheese and two eggs in the bowl of an electric mixer and
beat with a flat beater until smooth, thick and fluffy. Be sure to
eliminate all cream cheese lumps. Add the remaining eggs, one at a
time, beating briefly after each addition. Add the remaining
ingredients and beat at slow speed. Add the wheat bran and nuts,
blending at low speed.
Spoon the batter into the pans and bake the banana bread for about 45
to 55 minutes or until done. Cool before slicing. Keep
refrigerated (keeps for about 3 to 4 days). Freeze bread that isn’t
going to be used soon.
