Instructions:
Step 1: Make the Keto Bread
- Preheat Oven: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a small loaf pan or baking dish.
- Mix Ingredients: In a bowl, mix almond flour, baking powder, erythritol, eggs, almond milk, melted butter, and vanilla extract until well combined.
- Bake the Bread: Pour the batter into the prepared pan and bake for 20-25 minutes or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean. Let the bread cool completely, then cut it into cubes.

Step 3: Assemble the Bread Pudding
- Layer the Bread: Place the bread cubes into a greased baking dish.
- Pour Custard Over Bread: Pour the custard mixture evenly over the bread cubes, pressing lightly to ensure the bread soaks up the liquid.
- Optional Add-Ins: Sprinkle chocolate chips or nuts on top if desired. Let the mixture sit for 10-15 minutes to absorb the custard.
Step 4: Bake
- Bake the Pudding: Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C). Bake for 30-35 minutes or until the custard is set and the top is golden brown.
- Cool and Serve: Let cool slightly before serving. Optionally, top with a dollop of sugar-free whipped cream or a drizzle of keto caramel sauce.
Tips:
- Bread Texture: Let the bread cubes dry out slightly before assembling (leave them uncovered for a few hours or lightly toast them in the oven) for better custard absorption.
- Sweetness Level: Adjust the sweetness to your preference by adding more or less sweetener.
- Add-Ins: Add berries, nuts, or sugar-free syrup for flavor variations.
- Make-Ahead: Assemble the bread pudding the night before and bake it fresh in the morning.
