Apple Bread Pudding

1. 1

   Preheat the oven to 325u00b0F. Grease a deep 1 1/2-quart baking dish.

2. 2

   Dissolve the brown sugar in 1 tbsp water in a medium skillet on low heat. Add the apples. Simmer, uncovered, for about 5 mins or until tender, stirring occasionally.

3. 3

   Place the milk and vanilla bean in a medium saucepan; bring to a boil. Remove from the heat. Let stand, covered, for 5 mins. Discard the vanilla bean.

4. 4

   Arrange the bread and apple in alternate layers in the prepared dish.

5. 5

   Whisk the eggs, cinnamon and nutmeg in a large bowl. Gradually whisk the hot milk mixture into the egg mixture. Pour the mixture carefully over the bread and apple. Place the dish in large roasting pan; add enough boiling water to the roasting pan to come halfway up the side of the baking dish.

6. 6

   Bake, uncovered, for about 1 hour or until set. Serve with ice cream or whipped cream, if desired.
