Recipe : Orange Bread Pudding with Figs

A sweet, rich-tasting dessert, just right for festive occasions. Serve after a light
meal; it is quite filling. It's also an excellent substitute for the traditional plum
pudding at Christmas.

Makes 8 servings

1/2 cup fresh orange juice
6 ounces dried figs, finely diced
1 1/4 cups fat-free egg substitute
1 1/2 cups evaporated skimmed milk
3 tablespoons granulated sugar
2 teaspoons grated orange zest
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
4 ounces whole-wheat bread, diced

In small saucepan, combine juice and figs; bring to a boil. Remove from heat; let
stand until cool.
Adjust oven racks to divide oven in half. Preheat oven to 350o F. Spray 2-quart
baking dish with nonstick cooking spray.
In large bowl, whisk together egg substitute, milk, sugar, zest and vanilla. Add
bread and fig mixture; let stand 10 minutes; then pour bread mixture into
prepared baking dish. Place baking dish in roasting pan.
Place roasting pan on center rack of oven; carefully pour 1" hot water into
roasting pan. Bake 45-55 minutes, until just set. Let stand 30 minutes before
serving warm, or cool to room temperature.
