Recipe of the Week - Bread Pudding

I thought I would mix things up a little this week and post a dessert recipe! I know I tend to post a lot of entree recipes, so here it goes.

Bread Pudding

via www.allrecipes.com

• 10 slices white bread, cut into cubes
• 1/4 cup margarine, melted
• 1/2 cup raisins
• 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
• 6 eggs
• 3/4 cup white sugar
• 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
• 1/2 teaspoon salt
• 3 cups hot milk
• 1 pinch ground nutmeg

1. Heat oven to 375 degrees F(190 degrees C)
2. In a large bowl, combine bread cubes, melted margarine, raisins, and cinnamon; mix well, and transfer to a 2 quart baking dish.
3. Use the same bowl to beat the eggs. Stir in sugar, vanilla, and salt until sugar is dissolved. Slowly whisk in the hot milk. Pour egg mixture over bread cubes, sprinkle with nutmeg, and set aside to soak for 5 minutes.
4. Bake in preheated oven for 25 to 30 minutes, or until a knife inserted into the center comes out clean.

 This is great for a breakfast or dessert, I know it was a hit here!  

Enjoy!
