RAISIN WHOLE WHEAT BREAD PUDDING 
This pudding contains less than half the usual amount of sugar in a traditional bread pudding. Fat is reduced by using skim milk rather than whole milk and the raisins and whole wheat bread add dietary fiber.

1 1/2 cups whole wheat bread, cut in 1-inch cubes and toasted
3/4 tsp. ground cinnamon
1/4 tsp. vanilla
1/3 cup raisins
2 tbsp. sugar
1 egg
1 1/4 cups skim milk

Preheat oven to 325°F. Place bread cubes in 1-quart casserole. Sprinkle with raisins. Mix sugar and cinnamon. Stir in egg and vanilla. Heat milk; slowly stir into egg mixture. Pour over bread. Bake until tip of knife inserted in center comes out clean, about 40 minutes.

Makes 4 (1/2 cup) servings.
