Chocolate and Sweet-Bread Pudding

Print  Friendly and PDF
I often make this when I crave for something chocolate-y and have no patience to go through the pains of making a decadent dessert. This is a no-nonsense bread pudding that can be made in a jiffy.Banana puree can be used as a binder ingredient instead of egg to make it completely vegetarian.
Ingredients:
  • Cinnamon-raisin Bread or Any sweet bread - 4 slices
  • Low-fat milk - 1 1/2 cups
  • Sugar - 2 tbsp
  • Egg - 1 , beaten  (or) Banana - 1/2, pureed
  • Butter - 2 tbsp
  • Semi-sweet chocolate - 2 ounces( about 1/4 cup)
  • Vanilla extract - 1/2 tsp
Procedure:
  • Tear the slices of bread and set aside.
  • In a bowl, mix the milk, sugar, beaten egg and vanilla extract using a whisk.
  • In another bowl, melt the butter and chocolate. Add this to the above bowl.
  • Pour the entire milk mixture over the bread making sure all the pieces are coated.
  • Refrigerate for an hour.
  • Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
  • Grease a square baking pan(8 X 8) with butter. Move the mixture to the pan.
  • Bake on the top rack for 20-25 minutes or until set.
  • Cut into squares or heart and serve immediately.
Makes 4-6 servings.

Note:
  • Mixture may puff during baking and deflate after cooling.
  • Banana Puree can be used Instead of eggs. 
Enjoy!
