Yield 8 servings

Number Of Ingredients 8

Ingredients

ingredients
Vegetable cooking spray
1 loaf (16 ounces) Pepperidge Farm® Cranberry Orange Fruit & Grain bread, cut into cubes
1 1/4 cups cholesterol-free egg substitute
2 cups nonfat milk
1/3 cup honey
1 tsp. vanilla extract
Maple-flavored syrup or Confectioners' sugar

Steps:

Heat the oven to 350°F. Spray a 2-quart oval baking dish with the cooking spray. Place the bread cubes into the baking dish. Beat the egg substitute, milk, honey and vanilla in a medium bowl with a fork or whisk. Pour the milk mixture over the bread cubes. Press the bread cubes into the milk mixture to coat. Let stand for 15 minutes. Bake for 55 minutes or until the bread pudding is set. Serve with the maple syrup or sprinkle with the confectioners' sugar.

Tips:

Use fresh ingredients: Fresh cranberries and oranges will give your bread pudding the best flavor. If you can't find fresh cranberries, you can use frozen cranberries that have been thawed and drained.
Don't overmix the batter: Overmixing the batter will make the bread pudding tough. Mix just until the ingredients are combined.
Bake the bread pudding in a water bath: This will help to keep the bread pudding moist and prevent it from drying out.
Let the bread pudding cool completely before serving: This will allow the flavors to meld and the bread pudding to set.
