Morning Glory Bread: The best breakfast!
I would like to introduce you to your new favorite breakfast treat. I am super excited about this bread you guys. Holy smokes. I had one of these fantastic baking moments where I went through my pantry and threw together all of my favorite ingredients (I omitted chocolate in case you were wondering), adjusting sweetness and textures as I went along.
And just like magic the most delicious bread was baked. I love when I get a first try success!!
I love the flavors of Morning Glory muffins; it’s definitely one of my favorites and it’s fun to pack in all of those yummy nutrients when feeding my kids too.
As a nutritionist, I have to make sure that my kids are getting a healthy breakfast, but also still very happy to eat it! This Morning Glory Bread is packed with fiber and healthy fats, making it a great busy weekday breakfast option.
How to make Paleo Morning Glory Bread
Let’s start by gathering our ingredients:
Ingredients:
- blanched almond flour
- coconut flour
- coconut sugar
- baking soda
- baking powder
- cinnamon
- sea salt
- coconut flakes
- coconut oil
- maple syrup
- eggs
- grated carrots
- apples
- raisins
- walnuts
So simple to make here by combining dry ingredients in one bowl, and wet ingredients into another. Spread evenly among the loaf pan and bake.
I love this warm right out of the oven! Slice up and spread with a little butter, or enjoy plain.
My kids were absolutely crazy about this the other day. They enjoyed the bread for an after school snack, and then again in their lunchbox today. This makes a super yummy afternoon pick-me-up with a cup of coffee or tea!
Storing:
This loaf is best enjoyed by slicing, then freezing. It will last for about 3 months in the freezer. Once you’re ready to eat, simply defrost each slice to room temperature and enjoy!

This bread look wonder but I can’t use almond flour
What else could I use instead. Thanks for you help
Linda.
Hi Linda,
I have only tried with almond flour, but I would recommend using cassava flour in its place. Hope that helps!
Thanks for the recipe! How would cooking instructions differ if I DID want to make muffins? I am making breakfast treats for a carpool, so want something that can be easily eaten while driving. Thanks!
Hi Shelly, yes the instructions would be the same, but bake time would be around 18-20 minutes. Hope that helps!
Thank you so much for the quick reply! I am making these tonight. 🙂
Just made this and it is perfect! I substituted date paste for the coconut sugar and love how it’s not as sweet as other breads and muffing. Thank you!
Oh yay! Date paste sounds like the perfect addition, so glad you liked it 🙂
hi! i’d love to make this into muffins… any idea how long to bake them for? yum thank you!
I would try 18-20 minutes at 350!
Looks delicious!!!! Is there a substitute for the eggs that will work???? Thanks:)
Hi Kim, I have not made this without eggs. But, I have cooked without eggs and I would recommend 1 tbsp ground flax seed combined with 3 tbsp of water (let sit for a a few minutes until absorbed and viscous). You would need to do this per egg in the recipe. I hope that helps, and let me know if you try it this way and how it turns out!
I have always made my morning glory muffins with E-nergy Egg Replacer and I actually like the texture better than with eggs. I haven’t tried this recipe yet but I imagine it would work similarly.
You can definitely use the E-nergy Egg Replacer. Keep me posted!
This bread looks delicious! Can you post the nutrition information by chance? Paleo is wonderful but I’m hoping to make this keto-friendly as well!

Yay! So glad you liked it Tobi!
I would love to make it …
I only have coconut flour ? would this work or needs the almond ?
Would you comment please ?
Thank you
Carmen
Hi Carmen, the coconut flour is dry and will need an entire different recipe. I have never made it with just coconut flour, so I would suggest to use the almond flour.
It sure looks good, but, when I try to bring new food home, I truly need the ‘label”.
I swapped out the apple for zucchini and maple for rice malt syrup and left out the coconut sugar all together and the result was great. Very delicious. I look forward to eating the rest of it 😉
Sounds perfect!!
LOL, you sound like me. Find a recipe and make it fort for me.
I just made this and it’s fantastic! Thanks for a healthy and delicious paleo recipe!!
You’re welcome, Missy!!
