| This recipe brings together bread (in the form of sliced bagels) and soft coconut custard to create a pudding-like mixture that is shaped into individual cakes to delight the senses. This recipe also happens to be dairy-free. |
 |
| Makes 6 |
 |
| 4 plain or fruit bagels, thinly sliced |
 |
| 1 cup blueberries (fresh or frozen) |
 |
| 3 eggs |
 |
| 1/2 cup flavourful honey |
 |
| 1 tsp vanilla extract |
 |
| 400ml can coconut milk or coconut cream |
 |
| Icing sugar, to dust |
 |
|
 |
|
 |
| 1. |
Preheat oven to 170°C. Lightly oil six individual 180ml-capacity cake or muffin tins. Pack the bagel slices into the prepared tins, interspersing some blueberries between the layers. Press down well. |
 |
| 2. |
In a bowl, lightly beat eggs. Add honey, vanilla and coconut milk and beat just to combine. Transfer this mixture to a jug and then pour evenly over the sliced bagel arrangements in the tins. Set aside for 15 minutes for the bagels to properly absorb the liquid. |
 |
| 3. |
Bake for 40-45 minutes. The cakes will inflate slightly when fully cooked, deflating again once cold. |
 |
| 4. |
Cool in the tins for 20 minutes before removing to a wire rack. Serve warm or cold, dusted with icing sugar. |
