Breakfast bread pudding is a no-brainer main dish to make for a casual brunch or for overnight guests. This super simple recipe serves 8, can be assembled in a baking dish in as little as 15 minutes, and is great way to use up stale bread. While it stands at room temperature and bakes, you’ll have plenty of extra time to brew coffee, toss together some fruit, and prepare another side dish to round out the menu. To make Chocolate-Banana Bread Pudding, replace the cinnamon and nutmeg with 5 tablespoons unsweetened cocoa powder and use whole-wheat instead of raisin bread.

Ingredients

1% low fat milk

2 cup(s)

Fat free half and half creamer

1 cup(s)

Egg

3 large egg(s)

Egg whites

2 large

Vanilla extract

1 tsp

Ground cinnamon

1½ tsp

Ground nutmeg

tsp

Raisin bread

16 oz, cut into 1-inch chunks

Banana

1 medium, sliced

Powdered sugar (confectioner's)

1 Tbsp, (optional)

Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven to 350°F. Spray a 9 x 13-inch baking dish with nonstick spray.
  2. Whisk together the milk, half-and-half, eggs, egg whites, vanilla, cinnamon, and nutmeg in a large bowl until blended. Stir in the bread and banana; let stand 15 minutes, stirring occasionally.
  3. Spoon the bread mixture into the baking dish. Bake until a knife inserted in the center comes out clean and the top is lightly browned, about 1 hour. Sprinkle with the confectioners’ sugar, if using. Serve at once or let cool slightly and serve warm. Yields 1/8 of pudding per serving.
