APPLE AND CHEESE BREAD PUDDING

 

Upper Crusts: Fabulous Ways To Use Bread
The combination of fresh apples and grated cheddar cheese makes this contemporary version truly unique.
Serves 6 to 8.

Ingredients
• 1 cup brown sugar
• 1/2 cup water
• canola spray for greasing
• 6 slices firm bread, toasted and cubed
• 1/2 cup golden raisins
• 1 peeled, thinly sliced baking apple
• 1/4 cup melted butter or margarine
• 2 large eggs
• 1 & 1/2 cups milk
• 1 teaspoon cinnamon
• 1/4 teaspoon nutmeg
• 1/2 cup grated cheddar cheese
• nonfat vanilla frozen yogurt or your favorite yogurt or ice cream flavor, for serving


Directions
In small saucepan, combine sugar and water and boil over medium-high heat until thick and syrupy, about 5 minutes; set aside.

Spray a 9-inch-square baking pan and layer half the bread cubes, syrup, raisins, and apples; repeat with remaining bread, syrup, raisins, and apples.

In medium bowl, combine butter, eggs, milk, cinnamon, and nutmeg.

Pour over bread mixture.

Preheat oven to 350°F. Bake 35 minutes.

Sprinkle with cheese and bake 5 minutes longer, or until melted.

Cool on wire rack before cutting into squares. Serve with scoops of frozen yogurt.
