RAISIN MERINGUE BREAD PUDDING
This is my all-time favorite bread pudding, at its best still slightly warm from the oven (and I'm not usually one for warm desserts). The orange-flavored meringue makes it extra-special.

Steps:
- Toss the raisins with bread cubes; set aside.
- Combine brown sugar, salt, butter or margarine, vanilla, egg yolks and milk and beat until well-blended. Pour onto bread and raisins, toss to combine, and let sit for 1/2 hour.
- Preheat oven to 350. Grease an 8x8" baking dish, or spray with non-stick spray. You will also need a larger, shallow baking pan.
- Set the larger pan on the oven rack and place the 8x8 dish inside. Fill the outside pan to 1 inch deep with hot water.
- Bake for about 50 minutes, or until just barely firm. While baking, prepare orange meringue.
- Remove pudding from oven and spread with meringue, making sure you bring it to the edges. Return to the oven for 10 minutes or until meringue is lightly brown.
- ORANGE MERINGUE;
- Beat egg whites until fluffy. Gradually add the sugar, beating until stiff peaks form. Fold in grated orange peel. Spread on baked pudding.
- * If using raisin bread, cut back a bit on the raisins. Also,the original recipe called for 3 tbs. sugar in the meringue, which I found a bit sweet. I cut it down to about 2 1/2 tbs., use your personal taste.

[email protected]This bread pudding was a delight! It had the perfect balance of sweetness and tartness from the raisins and lemon zest. The meringue topping was a nice touch that added a crispy layer to the top. I will definitely be making this again.
