Ingredients

• 1 loaf almond flour bread (sliced and cubed)
• 6 large eggs
• 1 cup unsweetened almond milk
• 0.25 cup pure maple syrup
• 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
• 2 teaspoons ground cinnamon
• 0.5 teaspoon ground nutmeg
• 0.25 teaspoon sea salt
• 1 tablespoon coconut oil (for greasing)
• 0.5 cup chopped pecans
• 1 cup fresh berries (as topping, optional)

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a medium-sized casserole dish with coconut oil.

Step 2

In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the eggs, almond milk, maple syrup, vanilla extract, cinnamon, nutmeg, and sea salt until well combined.

Step 3

Add the cubed almond flour bread into the egg mixture, stirring to thoroughly coat the bread pieces.

Step 4

Let the bread soak for about 10 minutes to ensure it absorbs as much of the egg mixture as possible.

Step 5

Pour the bread and egg mixture into the prepared casserole dish, spreading it evenly.

Step 6

Sprinkle the chopped pecans evenly over the top of the casserole.

Step 7

Bake in the preheated oven for 30-35 minutes, or until the top is golden brown and the casserole is set.

Step 8

Remove from the oven and let it cool for a few minutes before serving.

Step 9

Optionally, top with fresh berries before serving for added flavor and color.
