INGREDIENTS
- 1 cup + 1 to 3 tablespoons unsweetened, unflavored plant-based milk
- 1 cup + 1 tablespoon orange juice
- ½ cup Date Paste
- 2 tablespoons flaxseed meal
- 2 tablespoons white whole wheat flour
- 1½ teaspoons orange zest
- 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- ½ teaspoon ground ginger
- 8 oz. whole wheat bread, cut into ¾-inch cubes
- 1 cup fresh or frozen cranberries, coarsely chopped
- 6 oz. extra-firm light silken tofu
- 2 tablespoons pure maple syrup
- ½ teaspoon pure vanilla extract
- Sea salt, to taste
INSTRUCTIONS
- Preheat oven to 350°F. In a large bowl combine 1 cup plant-based milk, 1 cup orange juice, the date paste, flaxseed meal, flour, 1 teaspoon orange zest, the cinnamon, and ginger. Let rest for 5 minutes. Add bread cubes and cranberries; mix well. Pour into an 8-inch square nonstick or silicone baking pan. Bake 25 to 30 minutes or until the top is golden-brown and firm to the touch. Transfer finished bread pudding to a wire rack; cool for 10 minutes.
- For Orange Sauce, combine tofu, maple syrup, the remaining ½ teaspoon orange zest, the remaining 1 tablespoon orange juice, the pure vanilla extract, and salt in a blender. Cover and blend until smooth. Add plant-based milk 1 tablespoon at a time, until you reach drizzling consistency. Refrigerate until ready to serve.
- Cut pudding into squares and spoon Orange Sauce over warm pudding just before serving.
