Baked Breadfruit Recipes

BAKED BREADFRUIT

Steps:

• Melt your butter, taking care not to brown or burn it, mix in nutmeg and cinnamon.
• Place aside or better yet, place in a small bowl and place in the refrigerator to set up again.
• Once you have your ripe breadfruit pull on the stem, it should give way with a tug and when the step comes off, the innards should come with it as well.
• Sprinkle 1/2 cup of the brown sugar into the hollow breadfruit.
• Take your hardened butter mixture and with a knife or spatula, place into the breadfruit followed by the rest of the brown sugar.
• Cover the hole in the top of the breadfruit (I tried using about an inch of a plantain to stuff the hole and it worked pretty well).
• Place in a baking pan with 2 cups of water and bake at 350 degrees for 1 hours.
• Allow breadfruit to cool for 15 minutes.
• Cut into quarters and dig inches.
• Depending on the consistency of your breadfruit, it might not be a bad idea to prep up an extra 1/2 cup of butter to use once the breadfruit is quartered.

OVEN BAKED BREADFRUIT

Steps:

• 1. Preheat oven at 425'F.
• 2. Rub the outside of the breadfruit with oil.
• 3. Wrap the breadfruit completely in tin foil and bake for 1 hour on a cookie sheet.
• 4. Use a metal screwer or fork with long tynes and stab the fruit to see if it's soft inside. If it is it's done.
• 5. When done use a pot holder to remove the foil and peel off the skin. Or cut it up and scrape the flesh out with a spoon.
• 6. Remove the pinkish heart out of the fruit as it's not edible.
• 7. You can serve this as is or do like I did and make a vanilla pudding out of it. I did that by putting the baked breadfruit in a very powerful blender. Then I added some flax milk, vanilla extract and powdered xylitol to it. Once I was happy with the sweetness I cut up some strawberries and added some blueberries then chilled it. It was quite good!
• 8. Enjoy!
