Apple Bread Pudding

I've come a long way since I posted my first bread pudding. In this version, I've  substituted sugar for jaggery a very healthy option. The apple gives a fruity kick(besides keeping the doctor away). Of course I have only used brown bread, in case you still havent converted to brown, here's why you should.
This can also be sent as part of a school lunch. Avoid the nuts and you can also give it to baby as weaning foods.
Ingredients-

1 1/2 cup milk
2 cups bread pieces
2 eggs
1 cup cubed apple
1/2 cup coconut milk
1/2cup grated jaggery
1tsp salted butter(optional)
raisins
chopped cashew nuts
1/4 tsp cinnamon/nutmeg/cardamom/cloves powder

Preparation- Cut up bread pieces into cubes, from crusts or corners that you've kept aside from sandwhiches. !
  • Pour the milk in a dish, add the bread cubes, eggs, jaggery, apple cubes and coconut milk. Use a fork to lightly mix. Leave to soak for half an hour.  
  • Add the melted butter and cinnamon/nutmeg/cardamom powder.  
  • Grease a mould and pour in . Sprinkle raisins and chopped nuts.  
  • Bake in pre-heated oven at 160C for 25 mins.  
  • Stand for 10 mins , then cool.  
  • Serve warm or chilled. 
Enjoy anyways

  5. Hi Shirley, I love this recipe and the shape of the pudding, lovely.
    I already have the rest of the ingredients, except brown bread, can I use wheat bread?

  6. Hi Shirley, The pudding recipe looks good. I'm working on ways to up the calcium and protein for a client. The following suggestion is something I've used successfully in a variety of recipes. For each cup of milk need in a recipe, mix it with 1/3 cup (or per package directions for amount) of instant non-fat powdered milk. It almost doubles the protein and calcium.

  7. What's jaggery? Your bread pudding looks fantastic. I love the use of apples and you're right; the tartness would be wonderful to bite into in here.
