DIRECTIONS:
MONKEY BREAD
Step 1
Preheat oven to 350F and grease a loaf pan with non-stick cooking spray or butter.
Step 2
In a small bowl, combine 3 TBS Swerve, Granular and cinnamon. Whisk to blend, and set aside.
Step 3
Combine milk and vinegar in a small measuring cup or bowl; stir and set aside.
Step 4
For dough, combine almond flour, coconut flour, protein powder, Swerve, Granular, xanthan gum, baking powder and salt; whisk lightly to blend. Cut cold butter into cubes and add to the dry ingredients. Cut in with fork or food processor until flour looks like corn meal.
Step 5
Add vanilla and eggs, and mix in until well combined. Then add almond milk/vinegar mixture; stir until dough is uniform, and can be rolled into balls.
Step 6
Use a cookie scoop or with a tablespoon, roll gently into a ball shape, give each dough ball a good roll in the cinnamon sugar mixture, then place in the prepared pan, filling the pan evenly with dough balls. Sprinkle 2-3 tablespoons of leftover cinnamon/sugar coating over the top of the dough in the baking pan.
Step 7
Bake for 20-25 minutes. Allow Monkey Bread to sit in the baking pan for about 10 minutes before turning it out onto a serving dish or plate. To do this, place the plate upside down on top of the baking pan, and (while wearing oven mitts), quickly turn the plate and baking pan upside down. Your Monkey Bread should release from the pan without a problem.
CREAM CHEESE GLAZE
Step 1
Place cream cheese and butter in a bowl and beat until smooth. Using a sifter, add Swerve, Confectioners and whisk until creamy. Add milk and vanilla, and whisk until combined. Note: If glaze is lumpy, blend in a blender or food processor.
Step 2
Gently spread cream cheese icing onto Monkey Bread, then add Swerve sprinkles.
SPRINKLES
Step 1
Divide 1/3 cup granulated Swerve, Granular across three medium to small bowls.
Step 2
Add yellow food coloring to one bowl and mix with a fork until the Swerve is completely yellow.
Step 3
Repeat with green and purple (equal parts red + blue) coloring to the other bowls.
