Step-by-Step Instructions
- 02
Prep the Oven: Preheat your oven to 325°F (160°C). Line a 9x5 inch loaf pan with parchment paper and coat it with cooking spray.
- 03
Melt the Cheeses: Add the mozzarella and cream cheese to a microwave-safe bowl. Microwave in 60-second intervals, stirring in between, until completely melted and smooth.
- 04
Pro Tip: Let the cheese mixture cool for 1-2 minutes before adding eggs to prevent them from scrambling!
- 05
Mix the Dough: In a food processor, combine the almond flour, protein powder, baking powder, baking soda, and salt. Add the melted cheese mixture, eggs, and sour cream. Pulse until a smooth dough forms.
- 06
Shape and Bake: Press the dough into your prepared loaf pan. Smooth the top with a wet spatula. Bake for 30-32 minutes until the top is golden brown and a toothpick comes out clean.
- 07
Cooling (Crucial Step): Let the bread cool in the pan for 10 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack. Wait at least 30-60 minutes before slicing to ensure the center isn't gummy.
