LUSCIOUS LIGHT BREAD PUDDING

Categories     Dairy     Dessert     Bake     Low Fat

Yield 6

Number Of Ingredients 18

Pudding:
2½ C. skim milk
½ C. raisins
½ C. dark brown sugar
1/3 C. sugar
1 t. vanilla
¼ t. cinnamon
¼ t. nutmeg
3 egg whites
1 egg
1 package instant nonfat vanilla pudding mix
10 slices of French bread (3/4 in. thick each), cut into cubes
Rum Sauce:
½ C. sugar
2 T. reduced-fat margarine
2 T. flour
1 C. skim milk
¼ C. dark rum

Steps:

  • For the pudding: In a large bowl, combine all ingredients except bread. Add bread, stirring gently and let stand in the refrigerator for 1 hour. Preheat oven to 350°. Spoon pudding into a 10x7 inch baking dish coated with cooking spray. Bake for 35 minutes. Serve with Rum Sauce. For the Rum Sauce: Combine sugar and margarine in a small saucepan. Stir over medium heat until margarine melts. Add flour. Cook for 1 minute, whisking constantly. Gradually add milk and cook for 4 more minutes, continuing to whisk constantly. Add the rum and remove from heat.

Tips:

  • Use stale bread: Stale bread will absorb the custard better and result in a more cohesive pudding.
  • Use a variety of breads: For a more complex flavor and texture, use a combination of different types of bread, such as white, wheat, and rye.
  • Use high-quality ingredients: The better the ingredients, the better the pudding will taste. Use fresh eggs, milk, and cream, and choose a good-quality bread.
  • Don't overmix the batter: Overmixing the batter will make the pudding tough. Stir just until the ingredients are combined.
  • Bake the pudding in a water bath: This will help to prevent the pudding from drying out and will result in a more evenly cooked pudding.
  • Let the pudding cool before serving: This will allow the pudding to set and will make it easier to slice.

Conclusion:

Light bread pudding is a delicious and easy-to-make dessert that is perfect for any occasion. With a few simple tips, you can make a light bread pudding that is sure to impress your family and friends. So next time you have some stale bread on hand, don't throw it away!
