Marijo's Low Sugar Chocolate Bread Pudding



Posted: Wednesday, November 25, 2009

by

1 C bread cubes (firmly packed - whole wheat or any whole grained bread - about 3-5 slices depending on the bread) 
2 Tbsp melted butter or margarine
1 slightly beaten egg
2 Tbsp raw sugar
2 packets of Stevia (sold as Truvia in grocery stores like Wal-Mart)
4 Tbsp cocoa (unsweetened like Hersheys)
1/4 tsp salt
1/2 tsp vanilla
1/2 tsp cinnamon
2 cups scalded milk (can do in microwave until there is a skin on top of milk but do not boil)

Combine sugar, Stevia, salt, vanilla, melted butter, cinnamon and egg. Add milk slowly stirring constantly. Add bread cubes and mix well.

Pour into a buttered casserole dish. Set casserole dish into a pan (cake pan) of warm water. Bake @ 350 for 1 hour or until a knife inserted into the center comes out clean.

Great with a dolop of fat free/sugar free whipped topping. Serve hot or cold. You can use “no added sugar" ice cream also in any flavor that sounds good.

This is a recipe which will taste good to the whole family, not only to the one who is watching their sugar intake.

It is an herb sweetener you can get at any natural food store - not bad for you like some of the other ones are purported to be because it is from an herb. A little bit goes a very long way! Thanks for commenting! I think the new Truvia in Wal-Mart and other grocery stores would be the same thing, different brand. Marijo

Hi Marijo. I was just about to call my sister for a recipe of the bread pudding. I went to my Reader's Club and this is the article that I saw. Wow! Telepathic message. Great recipe, I will try one today sans the chocolate. Thanks again. ~Nenita~

This called for raisins in the original and the chocolate was a variation. You can also use sugar (I have posted that one awhile back) Thanks, Lady - hey, you are running away from me in community ratings but I am chasing you! GRIN!! Marijo

I'll have to give it a try. I didn't know you could buy Stevia at Walmart. Thanks for the tip. I've been paying top dollar at the health food store. Linda D

Great recipie. Looks simple enough to make, and as a diabetic, new low sugar recipies are always welcome.
