10% of the time perhaps you can enjoy my Creole Bread Pudding With Bourbon Sauce, but 90% of the time, you might consider a low-fat recipe with a fair amount of nutrition:
Skinny Bread Pudding For One
1 piece of whole-grain bread
1 egg
1/2 cup skim milk
A pinch of Stevia or a teaspoon of honey, sugar, or your sweetener of choice
1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
a sprinkle of cinnamon
Directions:
1) Cut your bread into cubes.
2) In a mixing bowl, whisk together the egg, milk, sweetener,
vanilla extract, and cinnamon.
vanilla extract, and cinnamon.
4) I use either a pad of butter to grease a small baking dish or cooking spray before pouring the mixture into it. (Line the baking pan with aluminum foil and you can avoid washing a pan.)
5) Bake in a preheated 350-degree F oven for 20 - 25 minutes. Remove from the oven.
6) Wait at least 10 minutes before you eat it. You can also sprinkle the top with a bit more sugar or syrup. A sprinkle of more sugar or a little syrup adds only a trace more calories.
We develop a liking for whatever food we eat over and over including low-fat desserts. I love skim milk and whole grains. The recipe works especially well with low-fat milk because of the whole-grain bread. Delicious! Moreover, when you eat unprocessed food that is low in fat or sugar soon your palate develops a taste for it.
We can savor rich, high-calorie treats once in a while and likely enjoy them more if we eat them as treats instead of all the time!
