Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 6 cups Whole grain bread (slightly stale)
- 2 cups Unsweetened almond milk
- 2 large Eggs
- 2 tablespoons Unsweetened cocoa powder
- 1 teaspoon Ground cinnamon
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
- 0.25 cup Maple syrup
- 0.25 cup Dark chocolate chips
- 0.125 teaspoon Salt
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and lightly grease an 8x8-inch baking dish with non-stick spray or a thin layer of oil.
Cut the slightly stale whole-grain bread into 1-inch cubes. Place the bread cubes into the prepared baking dish in an even layer.
In a mixing bowl, whisk together the unsweetened almond milk, eggs, cocoa powder, ground cinnamon, vanilla extract, maple syrup, and salt until fully combined and smooth.
Pour the wet mixture evenly over the bread cubes, pressing down gently with a spatula to ensure all pieces are soaked. Let it sit for 10 minutes to allow the bread to absorb the liquid.
Sprinkle the dark chocolate chips evenly over the top of the soaked bread mixture.
Bake in the preheated oven for 30-35 minutes, or until the top is slightly puffed and the center is set but still moist.
Remove from the oven and let the bread pudding rest for 10 minutes before serving. Serve warm as is, or with a dollop of yogurt or a dusting of powdered cocoa for extra flavor.
