Recipe Introduction


Real vanilla bean adds a sweet perfume and other flavor nuances that vanilla
extract does not.



List of Ingredients




6 large eggs
1/2 cup granular Splenda (or equivalent sweetener)
1 cup heavy cream
2 cups half and half
1 teaspoon real vanilla extract--do not use imitation vanilla
1 vanilla bean, split and scraped
1 3-inch long cinnamon stick
8 slices stone ground whole wheat bread, cut into 1/2" cubes



Recipe



1. Preheat oven to 350º F. Generously butter a 9"x9" baking pan; set aside.
2. In a large bowl, whisk together eggs and sugar substitute. In a medium
saucepan over medium heat, bring cream, water, vanilla and cinnamon to a
boil. Slowly whisk hot cream mixture into egg mixture. Add bread and toss
well. Let stand 10 minutes, turning occasionally with a rubber spatula.
3. Transfer pudding mixture into to prepared pan. Place pan in a larger
roasting pan, fill the outer pan with enough hot water to come half way up
the sides of the pudding pan. Bake for until set, about 55 minutes. Let cool
for 15 minutes before cutting. Serve warm or chilled.

You can use 1 tablespoon vanilla extract in a pinch.
