Fruity Bread Pudding For Two - cooking recipe

Ingredients

1 cup stale bread, cubed
1/2 cup apple, peeled and chopped
1/4 cup dried cranberries (You could also use dried cherries or apricots or a combination of the three)
1 egg
1/4 cup granulated sugar
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1/2 cup milk
1 teaspoon butter
ground cinnamon

Preparation

In a lightly greased 2 cup baking dish, toss together the bread cubes, apple and dried fruit.
In a small bowl, whisk together the egg, sugar and vanilla.
In a small saucepan, heat the milk with the butter just until steaming; gradually whisk into the egg mixture in a slow, steady stream.
Pour over the bread mixture.
Let stand for 5 minutes; press gently to moisten the bread evenly.
Sprinkle with cinnamon to taste.
Bake at 350 degrees F for about 30 minutes or just until puffed and a knife inserted in the centre comes out clean.
Broil for about 2 minutes or until golden and crusty.
