LOW FAT APPLE BANANA RAISIN BREAD



Low Fat Apple Banana Raisin Bread image

This is a delicious low fat version of my mom's recipe. It yields 2 loaves. I'm a very busy person with small children and lots of pets, so I will offer my time saving hints; with a large spoon, mix the wet ingredients in a large bowl then sift the dry ingredients right over the top and stir slowly until combined. I also always have some sort of flavored applesauce snack pack on hand and that is what I use. It could be mixed berry flavor or apple cinnamon, even grape! They all work well and I use 2 snack cups.

  • Use a variety of raisins. Different types of raisins will add different flavors and textures to your bread pudding.
  • Soak the bread cubes in the milk mixture for at least 30 minutes. This will help the bread cubes to absorb the milk and become soft and tender.
  • Bake the bread pudding in a water bath. This will help to prevent the bread pudding from drying out.
