    3. Transfer the batter to the prepared loaf pan. The batter will be thick.

    5. Cool for 10 minutes in the pan. Run a knife around the edges and then lift the parchment to remove it from the pan. Cool completely.

  1. If I don’t have the Trim Healthy Mama Gentle Sweet, can I substitute with another low calorie sweetener? Which would you recommend?
