Maple Walnut Cranberry Bread Pudding

 

This is the type of dessert that you want to eat for breakfast, and you can too! It contains all of the breakfast staples: bread, milk, maple syrup and eggs! Maybe just skip the vanilla ice cream if you plan on eating before work in the morning...

Preheat your oven to 350 degrees.

Ingredients: 

• 2 cups milk
• 1/4 cup butter
• 3 eggs
• 3/4 cup maple syrup
• 1/4 teaspoon salt
• 1 teaspoon cinnamon
• 1/2 teaspoon nutmeg
• 6 cups soft bread, cubed
• 1/2 cup dried cranberries
• 1/2 cup walnuts, chopped up

Melt the butter in a saucepan and add milk. Whisk the eggs in a separate bowl, and add syrup, cinnamon, nutmeg and salt. Fold in the bread, cranberries and walnuts, and pour milk and butter mixture over it. Pour into a greased pan and bake uncovered for 45 minutes. Serve warm and top with vanilla ice cream!
