This comforting bread pudding topped with a sprinkle of nutmeg is made with SARA LEE® Soft & Smooth™ Whole Grain White Bread and SPLENDA® Sugar Blend for Baking.
INGREDIENTS (for 8 servings):
- 12 slices SARA LEE® Soft & Smooth™ Whole Grain White Bread, cubed
- 1/4 cup reduced-fat margarine, melted
- 1/2 cup raisins
- 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 3 eggs
- 1/2 cup egg substitute
- 3/4 cup SPLENDA® Sugar Blend for Baking
- 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 1 cup skim milk
- 2 cups fat free half-and-half

PREPARATION:
Heat oven to 375 degrees F(190 degrees C)
In a large bowl, combine bread cubes, melted margarine, raisins, and cinnamon; mix well, and transfer to a 2 quart baking dish.
Use the same bowl to beat the eggs and egg substitute. Stir in SPLENDA® Sugar Blend for Baking, vanilla, and salt. Warm the milk and half-and-half in the microwave until hot, about 2 minutes. Slowly whisk into the egg mixture. Pour egg mixture over bread cubes, sprinkle with nutmeg, and set aside to soak for 5 minutes.
Bake in preheated oven for 25 to 30 minutes, or until a knife inserted into the center comes out clean.
