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:

- coconut sugar
- baking soda
- baking powder

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!

Fantastic recipe! My whole family loved this bread, it barely lasted a day. Thank you!!
So happy to hear you loved it!
Could I use the exact ingredients and such if I did want to turn these into muffins?
Yes!! Just cook for 22-25 mins
This recipe is fantastic! I made it without the coconut sugar for a less-sweet version and it came out great. Thanks for a terrific recipe!
Woohoo!!
I can’t eat coconut products. What can I substitute for the coconut flour in your Paleo Morning Glory Bread? Also can I use olive oil in place of the coconut oil? Thank you.
I made this into muffins. Makes 13, filling greased tins to the top. Bake at 350 degrees for 20-22 min. Delish!
My daughter has a coconut sensitivity. What can I substitute for the coconut flour & coconut oil? Also can I substitute honey in place of maple syrup? This bread would be great for her breakfast. Thanks!
You can try arrowroot or tapioca starch in place of coconut flour and ghee, butter, or avocado oil for the coconut oil. And definitely ok to swap in honey for the maple syrup!
Can you make this without almond flour. I’m not eating nuts or nuts based foods to try to find out if it’s causing my migraines. Doctors orders, unfortunately.
What size bread/ loaf pan would you recommend for this given receipe
I use a standard 8×4 pan.
Love this loaf! I make it every week. I do like to add a bit more flavour by adding some nutmeg and cloves. I’ve also been grating the apple with the carrots to save preparation time. Fantastic recipe!!
Me and my kids love these! If you want to spice things up ( literally), do as I did and add cardamom, ginger, and nutmeg. Those three additions make it taste like an apple pie/carrot cake hybrid.
I love how hearty they are, they feel packed with things I feel good about. Next time I think I’ll even skip the coconut sugar and just use the maple syrup, since they were sweet enough I wouldn’t miss it. A sprinkle of sun seeds on top adds a bit of texture, making for a fantastic morning muffin, mid day snack, tea/coffee nibble, or midnight treat.
Thank you for the recipe, I will be using it again and again!!
