MAPLE CARAMEL BREAD PUDDING

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
• Cut bread into 3/4 inch cubes. Arrange cubes in a 9x13-inch baking dish. Whisk together the eggs, egg white and sugar in a bowl. Stir in the milk, syrup, cinnamon, nutmeg, and salt. Pour mixture over bread.

Steps:

• Bake the pudding for 35 minutes. Remove from the oven and sprinkle with the nuts and sugar. Return to the oven and bake for an additional 15 to 20 minutes, until the pudding has puffed up and is light brown around the edges.
