12 ounces sweet Hawaiian bread, cut into 1/2-inch pieces (about 10 cups)

3/4 cup cooked wild rice
1 cup blueberries
Nonstick cooking spray
1 tablespoon toasted, sliced almonds
1/4 teaspoon finely grated orange zest

1
Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.

Spread the bread cubes out on a baking sheet and bake until toasted and golden, tossing halfway through, about 15 minutes.

Let cool.

Add the cooled bread cubes and wild rice.

Toss to combine and set aside until the bread soaks up most of the liquid, about 30 minutes.

Top with the almonds and bake until the bread pudding is set and golden, 30 to 40 minutes.

Remove and let rest for a few minutes.

Meanwhile, add the remaining 2 tablespoons sugar to a small saucepan.

Swirl over medium-low heat until the sugar dissolves and turns amber, about 7 minutes.
