2 cups low-fat milk
1 cup fat-free half-and-half
3 large eggs
2 large egg whites
1 tsp vanilla extract
1 1/2 tsp ground cinnamon
1/8 tsp ground nutmeg
16 oz raisin bread, cut into 1-inch chunks
1 medium banana, sliced banana
1 Tbsp (optional) powdered sugar (confectioner's)
Preheat the oven to 350°F. Spray a 9 x 13-inch baking dish with nonstick spray.
Whisk together the milk, half-and-half, eggs, egg whites, vanilla, cinnamon, and nutmeg in a large bowl until blended. Stir in the bread and banana; let stand 15 minutes, stirring occasionally.
Spoon the bread mixture into the baking dish. Bake until a knife inserted in the center comes out clean and the top is lightly browned, about 1 hour. Sprinkle with the confectioners’ sugar, if using. Serve at once or let cool slightly and serve warm. Yields 1/8 of pudding per serving.
