Servings: 6-8
Preparation Time: 20 minutes

Place the torn/cubed bread into a well-greased 8×8 baking dish.

In a bowl, whisk the eggs till well blended. Add remaining ingredients and whisk till all is combined very well.

Pour the pumpkin mixture evenly over the bread cubes. Use a spatula to gently press down any bread that was not covered in the pumpkin mixture. Let the pudding sit for 30-60 minutes before baking at 375 degrees for 40-45 minutes or till done.

Serve with a drizzle of pure maple syrup. Enjoy!

Notes: If you decide not to use the maple syrup drizzle, you may want to increase the sugar by 2 tablespoons.

Servings: 8
Preparation Time: 15 minutes

  • 1/2 cup pumpkin puree
  • 1/2 cup almond butter*
  • 2-3 tablespoons maple syrup
  • 1 tablespoon coconut oil
  • 1/4 cup vanilla protein powder (optional, add 1/4 cup more flour to replace)
  • 1/2 cup almond flour
  • 1 tablespoon lucuma powder (optional, adds maple flavor)
  • 3/4-1 teaspoon pumpkin spice
  • 1/4 teaspoon cinnamon
  • dash or two of salt (omit if using salted nut butter)

Chocolate:

Combine the pumpkin, almond butter, syrup and oil in a bowl.

In a different mixing bowl, combine the flour, protein powder, lucuma, spices and salt

Add the wet to the dry and mix well. Place the mixture in the freezer for a couple hours until it has hardened a bit and can be formed into balls.

Once mixture is hard enough to handle, form inch in diameter size balls and place them on a cookie sheet or plate lined with parchment and place back in the freezer for 30 minutes.

While those are in the freezer, add the chocolate chips and cacao butter/oil to a small mixing bowl that has been placed over a small pan of boiling water. This is to get the chocolate to melt without burning it. Once water is boiling, turn down to a simmer.

With a spoon or a toothpick, place each ball into the chocolate and coat. Return each truffle back to the parchment paper and put back in the freezer to let the chocolate set, about 15 minutes

Store in the refrigerator or freezer.

Quick notes:

*Any nut or seed butter would work here. Coconut Cream Concentrate would be an option as well.

Servings: 12
Preparation Time: 15 minutes

Grease a small pan. Place all ingredients (except chocolate chips) in the food processor (or if you don’t have one you could combine it all on low on the stove) and combine until smooth. Pour your mixture into the pan and stick it in the fridge for about 5 minutes. Pull it out, add some chocolate chips, and then throw it back in until it’s set!

Cut up into 12-16 squares. These should be kept in the fridge, they get a little melty.

Blueberry Pudding Cake

Servings: one 9×9 pan
Preparation Time: 20 minutes

  • 1 cup frozen blueberries
    or
  • 1 cup fresh blueberries & 1/4 cup juice of choice (I used mango)
  • 1/2 cup coconut cream concentrate
  • 1/2 cup full fat coconut milk*
  • 1 large egg, at room temperature
  • 2 tablespoons honey
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla
  • 1 cup almond or chestnut flour
  • 2 teaspoons baking powder
  • 1 teaspoon Himalayan pink salt

1. Make sure all ingredients are room temperature. The coconut cream concentrate should not be melted, but spreadable. If it is hard, immerse jar in very hot water or simmer gently on stovetop.

2. Whisk together coconut cream concentrate, coconut milk, egg, honey, and vanilla in a large mixing bowl.

3. In medium size bowl, mix together almond flour, baking powder, and salt.

4. Slowly add dry ingredients to wet, whisking until combined.

5. Preheat oven to 375 degrees F and grease a 9 x 9 baking pan. I used melted coconut oil. Pour batter into pan and spread with a small spatula. Top with blueberries.

If using fresh berries, bring berries and juice to a simmer over medium heat on the stovetop. Once it bubbles gently, reduce the heat to low and simmer for 4-5 minutes until the mixture thickens. Pour over the cake batter.

6. Bake in preheated oven for 20 – 25 minutes. 20 minutes will give you more of a pudding consistency, whereas 25 minutes will get you more on the cake side. I like to split it down the middle and go for 22, but every oven is different. Cool and serve at room temperature, topped with whipped coconut cream or ice cream.
