Apricots and almonds always make a good pairing. Even apricots that are less than sweet will develop an intense flavor when they bake. Separating the eggs and beating the whites to a soft meringue, then folding the meringue into the bread mixture lightens the bread pudding. It will puff when it bakes.

Steps:
- Cut the bread into 3/4-inch squares. Combine the milk, vanilla and almond extract and toss with the bread in a medium bowl. Cover and refrigerate for 2 hours or longer.
- Preheat the oven to 375 degrees. Butter a 9-inch ceramic tart pan or 2-quart baking dish. Arrange the apricots in the dish. Remove the soaked bread from the refrigerator and beat with a whisk or an immersion blender until it becomes a mush. Beat in the egg yolks, almond flour, cinnamon and honey.
- In a clean, dry bowl or the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with the whip attachment, begin beating the egg whites on low speed. Gradually add the sugar, turn up the speed to high and whip until the egg whites form a soft meringue, about 1 minute. Be careful not to overbeat, as you do not want the mixture to dry out.
- Using a rubber spatula, gently fold the egg whites into the bread mixture. Scrape into the baking dish. Sprinkle the sliced almonds on top.
- Bake 40 minutes, until puffed and golden brown. Serve warm.
