Special Diets:
Ingredients
- 1/2 loaf whole grain bread, cubed (about 6 cups or 7 ounces)
- 1 cup dried mango (about 3 ounces), diced and soaked in warm water at least 10 minutes to soften
- 2 very ripe bananas, mashed (about 1 cup)
- 2 cups unsweetened almondmilk
- 1 (15.0-ounce) can pumpkin purée
- 1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
- 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 1/2 teaspoon garam masala
- 1/4 teaspoon grated nutmeg
- 5 tablespoons flaxseed meal
Method
Preheat the oven to 350F.
Spread bread cubes in a single layer on a baking sheet and place in the oven.
Bake until bread is fragrant and golden, 5 to 7 minutes. Alternatively, allow bread cubes to dry uncovered overnight.
Drain mango from soaking liquid and place in a blender.
Add banana, almondmilk, pumpkin, vanilla, cinnamon, garam masala, nutmeg and flaxseed.
Puree until smooth.
Combine toasted bread cubes with mango-banana mixture.
Line a 9x13-inch baking dish with parchment paper and spread bread mixture in the dish.
Let rest for 30 minutes or overnight to allow bread to soak up ingredients.
Bake at 350F until set and golden brown on top, about 45 to 60 minutes.
Allow to cool for about 5 to 10 minutes. Serve warm.
