Ingredients

The following ingredients have 4 Servings
  • 1 large loaf french bread ($1.49)
  • 1/4 cup raisins ($0.56)
  • 15 oz can pumpkin puree ($1.29)
  • 1 cup packed brown sugar ($0.34)

  • 1 1/2 tsp cinnamon ($0.15)
  • 1 1/2 tsp vanilla ($0.42)
  • 2 cups milk ($0.49)

Instruction

  • Cut a day old loaf of french bread into one-inch chunks. Place the chunks in a large glass casserole dish that has been coated in non-stick spray. Sprinkle with raisins.
  • In a bowl combine the pumpkin puree, eggs, brown sugar, cinnamon, pumpkin pie spice and vanilla. Stir until evenly combined. Whisk in the milk.
  • Pour the pumpkin/milk mix over the bread cubes and give it a gentle stir to coat the cubes. Preheat the oven to 350 degrees. Let the bread cubes soak in the pumpkin mix as the oven heats.
  • Bake the bread pudding for 40-45 minutes or until the center has set (poke with a toothpick, it should come out clean). Serve with maple syrup, whipped cream, vanilla yogurt or caramel sauce.
