  • 1 large egg white
  • 1 cup fat-free milk

  1. Preheat the oven to 350°F.
  2. Lightly spray a 9-inch square baking dish with cooking spray.
  3. In a large bowl, whisk together the egg, egg white, milk, brown sugar blend, vanilla, cinnamon, and cloves.
  4. Stir in the bread, apples, and raisins, cranberries, blueberries, and/or nuts.
  5. Pour the mixture into the baking dish. Bake for 40 to 45 minutes, or until the bread cubes are golden brown.
