Heidi Swanson, who blogs about healthy food on her excellent website 101 Cookbooks, shares this lightened bread pudding in her cookbook, Super Natural Every Day.

Ingredients

3 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil, plus more for greasing the dish 8 ounces whole wheat bread, cut into 1/2-inch cubes 5 ounces baby spinach, finely chopped 1/2 cup crumbled feta cheese 2 teaspoons Dijon mustard 1/2 teaspoon finely grated lemon zest 1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice 6 large eggs, beaten 2 cups milk Kosher salt and freshly ground pepper 1 teaspoon chopped oregano

Instructions

Preheat the oven to 350 °. Lightly oil a medium baking dish. Spread the bread cubes on a baking sheet and bake for about 10 minutes, until dry but not browned. Let cool, then transfer to a large bowl. Stir in the spinach and 1/4 cup of the feta. In another bowl, whisk 2 tablespoons of the olive oil with the mustard, lemon zest and lemon juice. Add the eggs and beat until blended. Add the milk and season with 1 teaspoon of salt and 1/2 teaspoon of pepper. Pour the egg mixture over the bread cubes and stir until they are evenly moistened. Transfer the bread mixture to the baking dish and let stand at room temperature for 2 hours or refrigerate overnight. Sprinkle the remaining feta on the bread pudding and bake in the center of the oven until risen and set, about 40 minutes. Turn on the broiler. Drizzle with the remaining 1 tablespoon of oil and broil until the bread pudding is golden and crispy on top, about 2 minutes. Scatter the oregano on top, cut into squares and serve.
