Peachy Pear Bread Pudding
I was looking for a whole wheat english muffin recipe when I stumbled across this one. There's an alternative version by a reader that sounds really good (and less fattening)
Ingredients
# 3 slices bread (a dense bread works best)
# 2 tablespoons light margarine, softened
# 1/2 cup sliced canned peaches, in natural juices
# 1/2 cup sliced canned pears, in natural juices
# 1/4 cup dried cranberries
# 1 egg
# 1/2 cup egg substitute, equal to 2 eggs
# 1/3 cup sugar or Splenda granular
# 1/2 teaspoon cinnamon
# 1/4 teaspoon nutmeg
# 1 1/4 cups nonfat milk (or fat free half-and-half)
# 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
Directions
1.
Preheat oven 350°F.
2.
Spread margarine thinly on both sides of slices of bread. Cut each slice into 3/4-inch cubes. Place bread in an 8-inch square baking dish that has been lightly sprayed with vegetable spray.
3.
Arrange peaches and pears on top of bread and sprinkle cranberries over all.
4.
In a medium bowl, beat egg, egg substitute, sugar, cinnamon, and nutmeg until well combined.
5.
Gradually add milk to egg mixture, stirring well. Stir in vanilla.
6.
Pour egg mixture over bread mixture; do not stir.
7.
Bake for 45 to 50 minutes, or until pudding is lightly browned.
8.
Serve warm topped with a small amount of fat-free whipped topping if desired.
I used Splenda and all egg whites (no yolks) with multi-grain bread and dried cherries in place of cranberries. I got a delightful dessert that wasn't "sugar sweet" but more lightly "fruit sweet", The recipe works very well and is very simple to put together. I topped mine with a very light drizzle of fat free vanilla coffee creamer. I will absolutely be making this again and trying different fruits. Thanks Susie..

RE: Peachy Pear Bread Pudding
This one isn't bad at all..........look at the nutrition stuff. If you used splenda, it really would cut it down.

RE: Peachy Pear Bread Pudding
^That's true. I'll have to give that a try, I've never used Splenda. How does it taste? Will my family be able to tell the difference?

You can't tell the difference with Splenda. I use it in my cereal and anything else that needs sugar.

That's good to know, I'll have to get me some Splenda and try it.

RE: Peachy Pear Bread Pudding
Yeah I've started using it a lot. I'm very picky about taste too so if Dixie will eat it, everyone should!

RE: Peachy Pear Bread Pudding
It sounds good. What type of bread have you used that works well? I see dense, but hey I don't use many types of bread. lol

French bread is wonderful and so are whole grains.
