Have you ever tried to make whipped cream

. . . and accidentally made butter instead? Or attempted to create a grain-free version of your favorite bread pudding recipe and made bread soup instead? Oh . . . well . . . I did both of those things this week.

I also typed a “I CAN SEE YOU” into a public webinar I was participating in. I meant to send it as a flirty Skype message to my husband, who was waiting for me outside a coffee shop, but instead I just creeped out a bunch of parents who wanted to learn about positive parenting techniques. So basically it was a normal week.

Fortunately, my husband patiently ate his way through several batches of this gluten-free bread pudding until I got it just right. It’s rich, chock full of raisins and cinnamon, and delicious both hot and cold. Though you can serve it with whipped cream or drizzled in vanilla sauce (recipe below), it’s moist enough to enjoy on its own.

To turn your coconut flour bread into bread pudding, you’ll need:

Instructions

For the coconut flour bread:

  • Preheat your oven to 350°F
  • In a small bowl, whisk together coconut flour salt and baking powder.
  • In a separate medium bowl, whisk eggs, coconut oil/butter and milk together
  • Slowly add the flour mixture to the liquid and mix until there are no lumps. Pour mixture into a lightly oiled 8×8 inch baking pan and bake for about 30 minutes. You’ll know it’s ready when you can insert a toothpick into the center and it comes out clean.

For the bread pudding:

  • Melt coconut oil/butter in a medium-sized pot over low heat. When fully melted, remove from heat and add cream, eggs, sucanat/coconut sugar, cinnamon, nutmeg and vanilla. Whisk until thoroughly combined.
  • Add coconut flour bread to your baking dish/Dutch oven. Sprinkle raisins over the top and mix them in a little, then pour the liquid in. If needed, dunk your bread cubes until they are fully coated in liquid.
  • Bake at 350°F for 1 hour – 1 hour 15 minutes, or until the pudding is set in the middle.

  1. For the cream could you use coconut milk or do you have a lactose free suggestion? Thank you for your time! This recipe looks great 🙂

    • Is there a spice that I could substitute for cinnamon? I’m extremely allergic to it.
      Thank you for your help.

      Sincerely,

    • I would like to know this too! Usually I just pour off some cream from the top of my (yummy) raw milk, but that is only about 1 cup or so.

  2. That bread looks very nice! The pudding part looks tempting, too. I just found your site and there is quite a lot of interesting stuff here.

  3. I laughed right out loud at the beginning of the article! Love it! Life is good. 🙂
    I’m on my second pregnancy and still avoiding grains with my 13 month old twins. I have been contemplating grains in our diet and have a lot of questions. (Coconut and Almond flour can get a bit pricey.) Are all grains bad? Does it depend how they are prepared? Does soaking them make them better/good for you? I would LOVE a long, comprehensive (sorry for the tall order) post on what you’ve learned.
    Looking forward to trying this! Thanks!!

  4. I love your humanness…thanks for the chuckle…and the recipe. ps…I listened in on that great parenting webinar, but didn’t click on the chat. I missed all the fun!

  5. Just took my loaf out of the oven. It barely cooks up. Not sure a 1 1/2 inch high could qualify as a loaf…also, with the 1/2 cup of oil, the loaf pretty much cooked in oil. I bet it will be very, very moist though!
