Ripe Breadfruit Food

LEFTOVER FRUIT BREAD

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Spray a 9-by-5-inch loaf pan with cooking spray. Line the pan with overhanging parchment and spray the parchment.
• Mash the banana in a medium bowl with a fork. Add the sugar, butter, yogurt, orange juice, vanilla and egg and whisk.
• Mix together the baking soda, salt and 1 1/2 cups of the flour in a bowl. Fold the dry mixture into the banana mixture with a spatula. Toss the peaches and blueberries with the remaining 2 tablespoons flour and fold into the batter. Pour the batter into the prepared pan.
• Bake until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean, about 50 minutes. Let cool in the pan for 10 minutes, then use the overhanging parchment to transfer the loaf to a rack to cool completely.

ULU (BREADFRUIT) PANCAKES

Steps:

• Scoop out ulu flesh into a blender. Add eggs, milk, baking powder, cinnamon, nutmeg, and vanilla extract. Blend batter until smooth.
• Heat coconut oil in a griddle over medium heat. Pour up to 1/4 cup batter onto the griddle; reduce heat to low and cook, covered, until edges are set, about 3 minutes. Turn over and cook until pancake is browned on the other side, about 2 minutes. Repeat with remaining batter.

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.
