Ingredients
- Double Chocolate Black Cocoa Bread Pudding
- 8-10 slices Sprouted 7 Grain bread, cut into 1-inch cubes
- 1 1/2 cups vegan dark chocolate chips, divided (we used Enjoy Life Dark Chocolate Morsels)
- 1 cup cane sugar
- 3/4 cup black cocoa powder
- 3 cups oat milk (or unsweetened non-dairy milk of choice), divided
- 3 tbsp ground flaxseed or ground chia
- 7 1/2 tbsp water (to mix with ground flaxseed or ground chia for the equivalent of 3 flax or chia eggs)
- 2 tsp Vanilla
- 1/2 tsp Salt
- 1 tbsp non-dairy butter or olive oil (for the baking dish)
- to Serve
- 1/4 - 1/2 cup vegan dark chocolate chips, melted
- 1/2 cup frozen cherries (optional)
- 1/4 cup icing sugar (optional)
Instructions
- Pre-heat your oven to 325℉. Lightly grease a 9-inch square casserole or baking dish (or baking dish of similar capacity) with non-dairy buttery spread or brush with olive oil and set aside.
- In a small bowl, prepare your flax/chia eggs. Mix ground flaxseed or chia with water and set aside.
- In a large bowl, mix the bread cubes with 1 cup of chocolate morsels.
- In a small pot over medium-low heat, melt ½ cup of the chocolate morsels with 1 cup of cane sugar, ¾ cup of black cocoa, and 1 ½ cups of oat milk. Cook until chocolate is melted and mixture is smooth and slightly thickened.
- Remove from heat and add another 1 ½ cups of milk, prepared flax/chia egg, salt and vanilla. Mix well until mixture is smooth and ingredients are incorporated.
- Pour the batter over the bread and stir gently until batter is fully absorbed. Pour into a baking dish and bake 40 – 50 mins until set.
- Remove from oven and top with frozen cherries. The frozen fruit will come to temperature by the time this dessert is plated and adds a nice bit of texture!
- Drizzle extra melted chocolate over the top, and dust with powdered sugar right before serving.
- Enjoy!
