Best Low Fat And Sugar Fruit Loaf Recipes

THE BEST LOW CARB KETO POUND CAKE RECIPE

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (177 degrees C). Line an 8.5x4.5-inch loaf pan with parchment paper, so that the paper hangs over the 2 long sides.
• In a large, deep bowl, use a hand mixer at high speed to beat the butter and Besti together, until fluffy.
• Beat in the eggs, one at a time, beating for 30 seconds after each addition. Beat in the vanilla.
• Lower the mixer speed to medium-low. Beat in the almond flour, baking powder, and sea salt. If using xanthan gum, sprinkle (don't dump) it evenly over the batter and beat in at low speed until just combined.
• Scrape the sides of the bowl. The batter will be thick and creamy. Transfer the batter to the loaf pan and smooth the top, rounding slightly.
• Bake for 25-30 minutes, until the top is golden brown. Tent the top with foil, then continue baking for 20-30 minutes, until an inserted toothpick comes out clean. Allow the bread to cool in the pan before moving or slicing.

HEALTHY BANANA BREAD

Steps:

• Grease a standard 9x5'' loaf pan (I also like to line the bottom of the pan with parchment paper to make sure the loaf doesn't stick).
• Mash bananas in a mixing bowl. Add egg, vanilla, brown sugar, granulated sugar, and cinnamon and stir well to combine.
• In a separate small bowl stir together flour, baking powder, baking soda and salt. Add to banana mixture and stir to combine.
• Gently stir in melted butter. Bake at 350 degrees F. for 35-45 minutes or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
• Allow to cool in the pan for 5-10 few minutes before inverting onto a wire cooling rack.

FRUITY TEACAKE

Steps:

• Place the dried fruits in a bowl and pour over the hot tea, orange juice and zest. Cover with cling film, then leave for at least 4 hrs or better still overnight.
• Heat oven to 180C/160C fan/gas 4. Grease and line the base of a 2lb loaf tin. Beat together the butter and sugar until creamy, then beat in the egg followed by the flour. Carefully stir through the fruit mixture. Spoon the mixture into the tin, then smooth over the surface with the back of a spoon. Sprinkle all over with a thick layer of demerara sugar.
• Bake for 1 hr or until a skewer inserted into the centre comes out clean. Leave to cool in the tin, then turn out, cut into slices and serve.
