FAQ

What is breadfruit flour? 

Breadfruit is a nutritious superfood fruit that’s naturally gluten-free and found in tropical areas such as Hawaii, Southeast Asia, South America, the Caribbean and Central America. It’s in the same family as the mulberry plant, and looks a bit like a green bumpy dinosaur egg on the outside. Inside, it’s starchy and smells a bit like a potato. 

When ground into flour, it’s highly absorbent and has a tropical flavor – with hints of banana and potato. It makes a great addition to paleo morning glory bread, by absorbing a lot of the moistness from the bananas, apples, and zucchini!    

What can I substitute with breadfruit flour? 

Coconut flour is a great nutritious substitute for breadfruit flour, as it’s similarly absorbent, and has a neutral flavor. 

What if I don’t have carrots or zucchini? 

You can easily leave out carrots if you prefer. Zucchini will lend a softer texture to the paleo morning glory bread bread, but you may leave it out if you don’t have any on hand, as the bananas and apples both lend moisture and sweetness.

Ingredients
  

Wet Ingredients

  • 3 bananas
  • 1 cup grated zucchini about 1.5 medium zucchini
  • 1/2 cup grated carrots about 2 small carrots
  • 1 cup apples, peeled, cored, and grated or chopped into 1.5” matchsticks about 1 large or 2 small apples
  • 3 large eggs (or 3 flax eggs)
  • 1/4 cup raisins
  • 1 tsp vanilla

Dry Ingredients

  • 1 cup almond flour
  • 1/2 cup breadfruit flour (or coconut flour)
  • 1 tsp baking powder
  • 1 tsp baking soda
  • 1 tsp apple cider vinegar
  • 1 tsp cinnamon
  • 1/2 tsp nutmeg
  • 1/4 tsp salt
  • Oats to sprinkle on top

Instructions
 

  • Combine all wet ingredients together in a large bowl.
  • Combine dry ingredients in another large bowl. Add apple cider vinegar as the last ingredient. Hold on adding oats until morning glory bread is in the loaf pan. Add wet to dry ingredients and mix well.
  • Bake at 350°F for about 1 hour 40 minutes to 1 hour 50 minutes in a loaf pan lined with parchment paper and sprayed with oil.
  • Paleo morning glory bread is ready when edges start to peel off the pan, isn’t too mushy when touching the middle, and an inserted toothpick comes out clean.
  • Wait for bread to cool and cut into slices. Enjoy!

Notes

  • For vegan version: To make flax eggs, simply combine 3T flax meal with 7.5T water, and let sit for 10 mins so it sets and becomes an egg "gel".
  • Using 3 bananas and 2 apples makes it plenty sweet, but if you prefer a sweeter bread you can add 1-2T maple syrup or honey.   
  • You may need to adjust your baking time depending on your oven. If you bake it for too little time, it will be overly mushy. It’s packed with bananas, zucchini, and apples which means it’s much higher in moisture than most breads and will indeed need a!
