Easy Blackberry Bread Pudding Cake-
Grain-free, easy to prepare, Blackberry Bread Pudding Cake with a keto and paleo version.
Easy Blackberry Bread Pudding Cake is easy to make, grain-free, paleo and has a low carb option.
I had intended for this recipe to be a fruity upside-down cake, but it ended up having the texture and taste of bread pudding.
Sometimes a recipe will turn into something even better than what you had planned on, and other times it fails.
I'm glad this experiment turned out delicious, although it went in a different direction than I had planned.
This is not made like traditional bread pudding. I did not chop up stale bread, or bake it in a water bath. So, I was really surprised it turned out similar to bread pudding.
My Mom happens to make an amazing Dutch bread pudding, but it is not grain-free or low carb, and it is also tedious to make.
Although this recipe is different than hers, it is a great, grain-free, and healthy substitute.
My family loved this and agreed that it tastes like Grandma’s bread pudding with blackberries instead of raisins.
I served and this topped with homemade coconut whip cream or whipped cream, but this would also be amazing with paleo or low carb vanilla ice cream!
Another simple low-carb blackberry dessert recipe that we adore is this one: Easy Keto Creamy Blackberry Fool.

Easy Blackberry Bread Pudding Cake
Ingredients
- BOTTOM FRUIT LAYER:
- 2 tablespoon butter or coconut oil melted
- 2 tablespoon coconut sugar or for low carb use 2 tablespoon erythritol I used this brand
- ⅓ cup blackberries
- CAKE LAYER:
- 2 eggs beaten
- ¼ cup unsweetened almond milk or coconut milk
- ⅓ cup Sweetener of choice: ⅓ cup maple syrup or for low carb use ⅓ cup erythritol + ¼ cup warm water (mixed together)
- 1 teaspoon GF vanilla extract
- 1 teaspoon cinnamon
- ½ teaspoon baking soda
- 1 teaspoon apple cider vinegar
- ⅓ cup coconut flour like this one
- ¼ cup blackberries chopped
- *OPTIONAL GARNISHES
- ½ cup Homemade whipped cream or whipped coconut cream with sweetener of choice (I put the canned full fat coconut milk the freezer for 20 minutes to separate the cream from liquid. Then open can and remove ½ cup solid cream and whip a little with either a little honey or liquid stevia for low carb to taste. can also use ½ cup heavy cream whipped with a blender stick or magic bullet blender)
- Paleo or low carb ice cream of choice
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350 F, and lightly grease a 9 inch cake pan.
- Place 2 tbsps butter or coconut oil into cake pan, and put pan into preheating oven for a couple minutes to melt butter or oil. Once melted, make sure butter or oil is evenly distributed all over the bottom of the pan.
- Sprinkle 2 tbsps coconut sugar or granulated low carb sweetener all over the melted butter or oil.
- Place blackberries on top of butter- sweetener layer, as seen in photo above. Set aside.
- In a large mixing bowl combine all the “bread pudding cake layer” ingredients except for the coconut flour and chopped blackberries. Mix thoroughly, then add the coconut flour and mix well, scraping sides of bowl, and braking up any coconut flour clumps. Add the chopped blackberries and gently mix in.
- Spoon cake batter on top of fruit layer in pan. Spread cake batter evenly across entire pan.
- Bake for 30 minutes or until top of cake is browned and center is set.
- Remove from oven and let cool completely.
- Use a butter knife between cake and edge of pan and slide around to loosen cake from pan. Turn cake pan upside down onto a large plate or serving platter. Cake should fall onto plate, but if not, then use a turning spatula to lift gently under cake a little, and then turn upside down onto plate.
- Slice and serve.
- Should be stored in fridge, if serving later.
