     Title: Cherry Bread Pudding
Categories: Veg-cook, August, Ovo lacto
     Yield: 1 Batch

     3    Eggs or substitute
   1/4 c  Dark honey; or to taste
 1 1/2 c  Nonfat plain yogurt
          - (approximate)
     1 ds Salt; scant
     8 sl Cracked wheat bread
     1 c  Dried pitted cherries
   1/2 c  Organic red flame raisins
          Spice (optional)

 Boil some water, pour over cherries and raisins to soak, set aside.

 Beat the eggs and honey with a fork until well blended. Stir in
 yogurt and salt. Break up about 8 slices of cracked wheat bread, or
 crumble it up, and stir in. Add in plumped up cherries and raisins,
 drain the water off first. Pour into a greased 5x7" pan, or a large
 pie tin. Bake 400 F until the aroma of bread pudding hits your
 nose, about 40 minutes.

 Serve with a little cinnamon sprinkled on top.

 Notes:

 This is just right in terms of sweetness for me. In order to try to
 placate the sugar gods, I tried it out with caramel sauce, and it
 ruined it for me. Nothing like the taste of burnt sugar to dull
 one's taste buds. Nonetheless, the caramel sauce recipe follows.
 Optionally mix some spices in with the eggs before baking, such as
 1/4 to 1/2 t of cinnamon, mace, allspice, or cardamom powder.
