Ingredients

4 slices of bread, crusts removed

1 tablespoon any flavor spreadable fruit (I used Boysenberry)

2/3 cup nonfat, dry milk

2 cups water, boiling

2 tablespoons large eggs

1/2 teaspoon pure vanilla extract

1 tablespoon sugar

ground cinnamon, to taste

powdered sugar for dusting

Preparation

Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Coat a 4 cup capacity ovenproof baking dish with cooking spray.

Spread two slices of bread with the spreadable fruit. Place the other two slices of bread on top of the spreadable fruit ( sandwich style) Cut each "sandwich" into several pieces. ( I cut them into fourths) Arrange cut pieces in the prepared b aking dish.

Combine milk powder, boiling water,eggs, sugar and vanilla extract. Pour over bread and sprinkle with cinnamon.

Place baking dish in larger baking dish. Fill larger baking dish with BOILING water, enough to come at least half way up the sides of the dish with the bread pudding in it.

Bake for one hour, or until set. Remove from oven and allow to cool for about 15 min. Dust with powdered sugar. Ser ve warm or at room temperature.
