Ingredients
6 slices day-old bread
Soft butter to spread on bread
1/2 cup raisins
4 eggs, beaten
2 cups whole milk
3/4 cup white sugar
1/2 teaspoon nutmeg powder
1 teaspoon cinnamon, ground
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
6 tablespoons apricot or strawberry jam
Confectioners sugar
DIRECTIONS
Spray an 8-inch ovenproof dish. Spread the slices of bread with butter and cut diagonally into quarters. Arrange in the dish with the raisins between the slices.
In a medium mixing bowl, combine eggs, whole milk, sugar, nutmeg, cinnamon, and vanilla. Beat until well mixed. Pour over bread, and lightly push down with a fork until bread is covered and let it stand for about 15-20 minutes. Place in a preheated oven on the second rack from bottom and bake at 325-F (175 degrees’ C) for one hour, or until a table knife inserted into pudding comes out clean.
Remove from the oven and allow to cool down a little. Gently heat the jam, thinning it with 2-3 tablespoons of water, strain and brush this glaze over the bread pudding. Dust with confectioners’ sugar.
Makes 4-5 servings.
