Ingredients
- FOR THE BREAD PUDDING CRUST:
- 1-½ cup Almond Milk
- 6 whole Eggs
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla Extract
- ½ teaspoons Cinnamon
- 1 loaf Cinnamon Swirl Bread, 16 Ounces
- FOR THE FILLING:
- 4 whole Apples, Cored And Thinly Sliced
- 2 Tablespoons Dark Brown Sugar
- ½ teaspoons Cinnamon
- ½ cups Freshly Grated Cheddar Cheese
- Whipped Cream Or Ice Cream For Topping
- Caramel Syrup, For Topping
Preparation
First, put together the bread pudding. Combine the milk, eggs, vanilla and cinnamon together in a large mixing bowl and whisk it all together until it is a smooth custard. Stir the cubed cinnamon swirl bread into it so that the bread gets coated in it. Set it aside to soak for 20 minutes. Then start on the filling. Stir the apple slices, brown sugar and cinnamon together in another bowl and let that sit for 15 minutes. The apples will start to soften and absorb the flavor.
While that all sits, preheat oven to 350ºF and liberally spray a 9-inch springform cake pan with cooking spray. Spread the bread pudding mixture into an even layer in the bottom of the pan, then sprinkle the cheddar cheese on top of the bread. Spread the apple mixture evenly on top of the cheese, then bake the pie for 45–50 minutes. The apples should be super tender and the bread pudding should be completely set. Let it cool and set for 20 minutes, then release it from the springform pan. Slice and serve with ice cream, whipped cream, and/or caramel sauce on top!
