This is like a baked French Toast that doesn't require overnight soaking. It's quick and easy, too. I figured the carbs because I have Type 2 diabetes: the result made me happy! I divided it into 9 servings, so they are not those typically skimpy servings in most diabetic recipes. 10 carbs per serving isn't too bad for a rich-tasting treat. Enjoy! Note: my carb calculations are for Whey Low Golden, which has 1 net carb per tablespoon.

How To Make breakfast berry bread pudding

  • 1

  • 2
    Spread cream cheese on bread, then cut bread into cubes and sprinkle in pan.

  • 5
    Beat eggs, milk and vanilla. Pour over top. Sprinkle with rest of brown sugar.
  • 6
    Bake in a bain marie at 350 for 35 to 40 minutes. Test with knife; it should come out clean.
  • 7
    HINT: for bain marie, place casserole in a larger casserole, put on rack in preheated oven, then pour boiling water in larger pan to come up to at least half the height of casserole dish.
  • 8
