Skinny Piña Colada Bread Pudding
- FOR THE PUDDING:
- 8 slices Stale, White Bread Cut Into 3/4 Inch Cubes (8 Slices Should Yield About 6 Cups)
- 1 cup Light Coconut Milk
- 1/2 cups Half-and-half
- 3 Eggs, Lightly Beaten
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla Extract
- 1/2 cups Splenda
- 1 cup Crushed Pineapple, Drained
- 2 Tablespoons Brown Sugar
- FOR THE WHISKEY SAUCE:
- 1/2 cups Coconut Oil, Melted
- 1 cup Splenda
- 3 Eggs
- 3 Tablespoons Whiskey Of Choice. (I Used Crown Royal)
- 1. Day 1: Cut the bread cubes and put them into a large bowl.
- 2. In a medium bowl, whisk together the light coconut milk, half-and-half, lightly beaten eggs, vanilla, Splenda and crushed pineapple.
- 3. Pour the liquid mixture over top of the bread and really stir it around, making sure all the bread is soaking.
- 4. Cover the bowl with a piece of plastic wrap and let it sit in the fridge overnight (see note below, if you don't have time to soak overnight).
- 5. Day 2: Preheat oven to 350 F and spray a 6 cup baking dish with cooking spray.
- 6. Uncover the bread pudding, transfer to the baking dish, smooth the top and sprinkle with the brown sugar.
- 7. Bake until the center of the pudding feels set, and the edges begin to pull away from the sides (about 40 minutes.)
- 8. Then turn the oven to "high" broil, and broil an additional 2-3 minutes, until the top has turned nice and golden.
- 9. While the bread pudding cooks, you can get the whiskey sauce ready.
- 10. Whisk the melted coconut oil, Splenda and egg in a small saucepan over low heat. Stir it constantly until it just begins to thicken up (2-3 minutes). Watch it closely so it doesn't curdle!
- 11. Whisk in the whiskey and remove from heat.
- 12. Set it aside until the pudding is ready, giving it a good whisk just before serving.
- 13. Once the pudding is ready, serve it warm topped with whiskey sauce and devour!
- Note: If you don't have the time to let it soak overnight, let it soak for at least 2 hours.
