The Inertia

Have a vegan valentine this year? Impress them with this decadent bread pudding. It’s free of any animal products, and it takes only a couple minutes prep time combined with a couple hours in the slow cooker. Not to mention it’s absolutely delicious. Your valentine will love it and you!

Ingredients

1 tbsp vegan butter

2 cups unsweetened almond milk, divided

2 cups vegan semisweet chocolate chips, divided

4 cups white bread cubes

3/4 cup granulated natural sugar

1/4 cup unsweetened cocoa powder

1/2 tsp salt

1 tsp pure vanilla extract

Method

-Oil the inside of the slow cooker with vegan butter or cooking spray.

-Heat 1 1/2 cups of almond milk in a saucepan until it’s almost about to boil. Remove pan from heat, and stir in 1 2/3 cups of chocolate chips. Stir until the chips are melted, then set aside.

-Place the bread cubes in the slow cooker, spreading them out. Sprinkle with the remaining 1/3 cup of chocolate chips.

-Heat the final 1/2 cup almond milk in a separate saucepan. Add in sugar, cocoa, salt, and vanilla. Stir the mixture until they all dissolve which should take about 2 minutes.

-Combine the cocoa mixture with the chocolate chip mixture and pour all over the bread in the slow cooker. Make sure the bread is submerged in the mixture. Slap on bits of vegan butter to the top of the bread pudding.

-Cover the cooker, and cook on low until a toothpick or knife comes out clean from the center. This should take about 2 1/2 hours.

-Remove the life, turn off the cooker, and let the pudding stand for 15 minutes before serving. Serve warm.
