Rhubarb Plum Bread Pudding with Coconut Oil

Servings: 8–10
Preparation Time: 2 hours

Ingredients:

  • 10–15 slices of dry bread, broken into small pieces (can be gluten-free bread)
  • 2 eggs (large), beaten
  • 1 large stalk of rhubarb, diced
  • 1/4 cup dried plums (or raisins)
  • 2/3 cup coconut milk*
  • 1/4 cup raw honey
  • 1 tablespoon cinnamon
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla
  • coconut oil for greasing pan

Directions:

In a large bowl, combine bread pieces, eggs, rhubarb, plum, milk, honey, cinnamon, and vanilla. Gently mix together with your hands until bread starts to moisten. There should be enough milk mixture to cover the bread. If not, add more milk at a rate of 1/4 cup at a time.

Let the mixture set for about an hour in the refrigerator to ensure the bread has absorbed the ingredients.

Pour into a greased 9 x 9-inch baking dish. (Cover with foil before baking if you want a less brown crust). Bake at 350 degrees F for about 40 minutes. The pudding mixture should be set when cooking is complete.

*For the freshest coconut milk, make homemade coconut milk. (See video at this link.)

Flourless Chocolate Creme Tortes with Whipped Cream

Flourless Chocolate Creme Tortes with Whipped Cream

Servings: 14–18 servings
Preparation Time: 15–25 minutes

Ingredients:

Flourless Chocolate Torte:

Whipped Cream:

  • 1 cup heavy whipping cream
  • 1/8 cup whole sugar
  • 2 teaspoons vanilla extract

1 tablespoon cocoa powder for dusting

Directions:

Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.

Grease individual ceramic baking dishes or muffin tins.

Flourless Chocolate Tortes:

Combine the chocolate, coconut oil, and butter in a double boiler. (You may also use a heat-proof bowl over a pot with an inch of water in it as a makeshift double boiler). Stir gently over heat until just melted and combined. Remove from heat.

Combine eggs, sugar, and salt in a mixing bowl and mix on medium-high speed until fluffy, thick, and pale yellow. This should take about 5–8 minutes.

Gently fold half of the chocolate mixture into the egg mixture until combined, and then fold in the remainder of the chocolate.

Pour the batter into your prepared pans and bake until the top is shiny and smooth and a toothpick inserted in the middle comes out with some batter still clinging to it. This takes about 8-15 minutes depending on the size of your chosen serving dishes.

Remove from heat and allow to cool slightly.

Whipped Cream:

Pour heavy whipping cream, sugar, and vanilla into a mixing bowl and mix on medium-low until soft peaks form.

Finally, place a dollop of whipped cream onto each torte and garnish with a sprinkle of cocoa powder.  Enjoy this creamy, rich dessert full of protein and healthy fats!
