The best bread pudding starts with high-quality bread, so my recipe starts with Wholesome Yum Keto Bread Mix. With super clean ingredients and just 2g net carbs per slice, this gluten-free mix makes a delicious fluffy and chewy base (not dense like many low carb breads are!) for this dessert.
Besti Monk Fruit Allulose Blend adds sweetness to the custard for a classic flavor with no gritty texture or aftertaste. If you missed bread pudding on keto, these ingredients will help bring it back better than ever!

Why You’ll Love This Keto Bread Pudding Recipe

- 5.5 net carbs per serving
- Perfect for a sweet keto-friendly dessert or brunch

Ingredients & Substitutions
This section explains how to choose the best ingredients for easy keto bread pudding, what each one does in the recipe, and substitution options. For measurements, see the recipe card below.
Bread:
- Wholesome Yum Keto Bread Mix – Makes the perfect chewy, airy keto bread base! You will not need the whole loaf — just 10 slices — so use leftovers for keto grilled cheese or keto peanut butter and jelly sandwich.
- Unsweetened Almond Milk – You can also make homemade almond milk or use your favorite keto milk substitute.
- Eggs – Use whole, large eggs. I haven’t tested egg substitutes, such as flax eggs, but let me know how it goes if you try that out.
- Butter – I use grass-fed butter, but any unsalted variety will work. Coconut oil should also work, but I prefer the flavor of butter.
Custard:
- Heavy Cream – Adds silky and rich texture to the custard mixture. Feel free to sub full-fat canned coconut milk instead.
- Eggs – These are needed for the bread above, plus help the finished pudding hold together.
- Besti Monk Fruit Allulose Blend – For 0g net carbs, this sweetener adds just-like-sugar taste to this iconic dish. In particular, it dissolves well, so the custard has no gritty texture. You can try a different sugar substitute if you must, but with other brands powdered might work best and the result may crystallize.
- Butter – Adds richness to the custard. Coconut oil may work as a substitute, but I haven’t tried it to confirm.
- Vanilla Extract – You could also try almond extract here.
- Cinnamon – For classic flavor!
- Sugar-Free Dried Cranberries – Optional, but if you like raisins in bread pudding, these make a good low carb alternative.
How To Make Sugar-Free Bread Pudding
This section shows how to make bread pudding sugar free, with step-by-step photos and details about the technique, to help you visualize it. For full instructions, including amounts and temperatures, see the recipe card below.
- Make keto bread. Cream butter until light and fluffy. Beat in eggs and milk. Gradually beat in Wholesome Yum Keto Bread Mix until a batter forms.


- Bake. Spoon the batter into a parchment lined loaf pan and smooth with a spatula. Bake until the bread rises and has a golden top.


- Dry. Slice bread into 1/2-inch slices and allow to dry for 1-2 days.
- Cut. After drying, cut bread slices into 1-inch cubes. and transfer to an 8×8 baking dish.

TIP: Bread not dry enough?
If bread is still too moist, toast in a warm oven for about 10 minutes.


- Make custard. In a medium bowl, whisk together heavy cream, eggs, Besti, melted butter, vanilla, and cinnamon.
- Pour. Pour egg mixture over the bread cubes. Stir to combine.


- Add berries. Fold in the dried cranberries, if using.
- Bake. Bake until low carb bread pudding is golden brown and the custard is cooked through.


Variations
- Use different breads – While the keto bread mix is the easiest option and has the BEST texture, you can also use other keto bread recipes like almond flour bread, white keto bread, or keto yeast bread.
- Add other mix-ins – Try sugar-free chocolate chips, blueberries, or chopped nuts instead of cranberries.
- Try other spices – Swap cinnamon for nutmeg, or add citrus zest to the custard mix.
- Top with sauces – Serve bread pudding with Keto Maple Syrup, sugar-free caramel syrup, or keto chocolate syrup… or even keto whipped cream.
Storage Instructions
- Store: Keep leftover sugar-free bread pudding in the refrigerator for 3-4 days.
- Reheat: Reheat in the microwave or 350 degree F oven, until warm.
- Freeze: You can freeze the low-carb bread pudding recipe for 2-3 months. Allow to thaw in the refrigerator overnight before reheating.

0Holy WOW!!!!!! This was so simple and sooooooo darn good!! I added some apples diced and covered with cinnamon….. hubby’s favorite by far and the kiddos even loved it….
Ebony Robinson
0I like to do taste comparisons of fat and carb laden dishes (I know, I know) with low carb sugar free recipes. Having this next to a brioche bread pudding, I just KNEW I was setting myself up for disappointment. I got a piece of each and tried this one first. Y’all! It was so tasty that I didn’t even want to try the one full of carbs and sugar. Total win!!! ChocZero white chocolate chips melted in the cream made this sheer perfection.
Artemis
0As we cannot get this bread mix in the UK do you have a homemade recipe for bread that would work just as well?
Do you have a Keto version of panettone which I love toasted for breakfast at Christmas?
Many thanks
Wholesome Yum D
0Hi Artemis, Here is a recipe for white keto bread that doesn’t use my bread mix. I don’t currently have a recipe for panettone.
Mary Ellen
0Can I use store bought sliced keto bread?
Maya | Wholesome Yum
0Hi Mary Ellen, I haven’t tried that. In theory it could work, but unfortunately most store bought keto breads are highly processed, and contain wheat and have artificial ingredients.
Jamie N
0Finally an option for keto bread pudding! So good and loved the addition of dried cranberries!
jess
0I’m not usually one for bread pudding, but this recipe is as tasty as it is easy to make! Thank you for sharing.
Julia
0I Love keto everything! This bread pudding is so so good! Super satisfying. Thanks for the awesome recipe!
Donna stancil
0Hi! Do you think I could replace the heavy cream for coconut milk or coconut cream?
Maya | Wholesome Yum
0Hi Donna, Yes, that should work!
Marsha
0This was wonderful! I had some keto bread in the fridge (made with coconut flour). I made 1/4 of this bread pudding recipe and ate it for breakfast! Thank you!
Roberta
0Thank you for the links remainding to your other bread recipes that don’t require your premixed bread flour for those who can’t have access to your products yet (we EU pepole are still waiting the launch…hoping just that the import fees don’t male them too expensive to try), a touch of care really appreciated as you already did with the recent post with video on the pancakes (pinned to try in the next days 🙂 )!
Natalie
0I can’t wait to make this for my hubs. He’s on keto
Swathi
0So yum!
Kristyn
0Sugar-free & low carb?! You can’t get better than that! You can’t even tell, this is delicious!!
Amy L Huntley
0I love that this is sugar free and low carb and doesn’t even taste like it! So yummy and the perfect texture!
Natalie
0I have recently started to really love bread pudding. It took me a while. I think it’s because I thought the bread was too soggy, but really it’s the perfect consistency!! Love the cinnamon-y flavor with the cranberries!
Krystle
0So rich and creamy! Thanks for fulfilling my ultimate craving.
April
0This felt like cheating! But OMG it was so good. Can’t wait to make it again for the holidays!
Glenda
0Yum! Gotta love when dessert is good for you AND absolutely delicious! We’ll make this one, again.
Allyson Zea
0This was so good, I can barely believe that it’s keto! Thank you for the easy recipe!
Paula
0Even being keto, this bread pudding didn’t lack anything in flavor and texture! 5 stars!!
Margaret
0Hi Maya! I adore bread pudding. If I want to bake the bread and make the bread pudding on the same day, could I cube the cooled bread slices and dry them out in a 200-degree oven? Approximately how long would you recommend? Thanks!
Wholesome Yum D
0Hi Margaret, I have never tried that, but if you do, please let me know the results.
Camille
0I love this! Thanks for sharing!
