This vegan bread pudding transforms simple leftovers into a luxurious, comforting dessert. Whole grain bread cubes are layered with fresh grated apples and plump raisins, then soaked in a sweet, aromatic custard made from soymilk, maple syrup, and warm cinnamon. The result is a moist, tender bake with a soft texture and rich, home-style flavor. It’s an excellent use for stale bread and offers a healthier, plant-based twist on the classic holiday treat. Perfect for breakfast, brunch, or a cozy dessert, this dish pairs beautifully with a dollop of coconut cream or a drizzle of extra maple syrup.

Directions
-
Preheat oven to 350ðF (175ðC). Grease an 8x8 inch baking dish.

Layer half of the apple mixture and half of the raisins over the bread.

Repeat the layers: add remaining bread cubes, remaining apples, and remaining raisins.
-
Pour the remaining liquid mixture over the top layer of bread.
-
Sprinkle with additional cinnamon if desired.

Let the pudding sit for 5âÂÂ10 minutes to allow the bread to absorb the liquid.
