This delicious keto eggnog bread pudding will become a staple holiday dessert! The classic eggnog flavors are in every single bite.
What Is Bread Pudding
Have you ever seen a bread pudding on the many at a restaurant and thought, “what actually is in bread pudding?” Before you start imagining chocolate pudding with bread crumbs, let me explain.
Bread pudding is a dessert made with stale bread that is soaked in a custard-like mixture and then baked. The sauce then caramelizes, and the bread remains soft.
I took the classic bread pudding recipe and made a low-carb version that tastes like eggnog. It’s basically the perfect holiday dessert – even for people who don’t normally think they like drinking eggnog!
Keto Bread Pudding
There are only 3 grams net carbs in each serving of keto bread pudding. And this deliciously sweet bread pudding makes ten servings!
It’s the perfect thing to make when you’re hosting a holiday dinner or if you signed up to bring a dessert. Kids won’t be able to tell that it’s low-carb either, So, make it for dinner.
What is the texture? It’s kinda like a cake, if a cake was made out of chopped up bread pieces.
It’s soft and sweet and has the best flavors! Don’t forget to use low-carb white bread.
If you can find a keto-friendly bread that doesn’t have seeds, use it. The seeds will distract from the soft texture of the baked bread pudding.
Eggnog Bread Pudding
Is this made with real eggnog? Yes, it is!
Don’t buy eggnog from the store. Store-bought eggnog is way too high in carbs! Instead, make it at home.
My Easy Low Carb Eggnog Recipe is really easy to make and keeps it low in carbs. In addition to the amazing flavors from the keto eggnog, I added more spices to the bread pudding, too.
You’ll use cinnamon, nutmeg, and cloves. Don’t forget about the real vanilla, too.
It rounds out all the flavors.
What To Eat With Bread Pudding
If you’re making the bread pudding for a family dinner, then I have a bunch of other low-carb desserts that you can make with it. Start out with Keto Cinnamon Brown Sugar Zucchini Cake.
If you have kids, then make a batch of pumpkin snickerdoodle cookies. You can also serve the eggnog bread pudding for breakfast.
Serve it with something savory like some keto sausage egg and cheese bites. The flavors in the bread pudding will also taste delicious with some keto brownie muffins and keto caramel pecans.
How To Make Bread Pudding Ahead
It’s best to store your bread pudding in an airtight container. Keep it in the refrigerator and eat it within three days.
You can freeze bread pudding, too. Keep it in the freezer for up to six months.
Then, let it thaw in the refrigerator overnight before heating it up.
