Lemon Bread Pudding with Lemon Greek Yogurt Glaze

Step 1

Preheat oven to 450 degrees Fahrenheit. Grease a 9x13 baking dish with butter and set aside.

Step 2

With a serrated knife, cube your crusty whole grain bread and add to the baking dish. About an inch or so in size is perfect.

Step 3

In a medium bowl, whisk together eggs, Greek yogurt, milk, extracts, stevia or granulated sweetener of choice, brown sugar, cinnamon, nutmeg, ginger, cardamon, lemon juice, lemon zest and salt until fully combined. Pour custard mixture over bread, making sure all bread gets coated.

Step 4

Sprinkle bread pudding with coarse sugar and chopped walnuts (optional). Bake bread pudding in preheated oven for 40-50 minutes, until center is set but still a bit jiggly. Allow bread pudding to cool for about 10 minutes.

Step 5

Meanwhile, in a small bowl, whisk together Greek yogurt, powdered sugar, lemon juice and milk until combined. Drizzle glaze over bread pudding and garnish with lemon zest. Enjoy warm or at room temperature.
