Non-stick cooking spray
2 cups skim milk
3 whole eggs, lightly beaten
12 slices wheat or whole-grain bread, cut in halves (not diagonally)
2 tbsp. margarine, melted, divided

Directions:
|
Preheat oven to 400°F. Lightly coat a 9x9-inch glass baking dish with cooking spray.
In a small bowl combine milk and eggs; lightly beat with a fork until blended. Dip bread halves in egg mixture to coat well. Layer approximately 1/3 of slices in bottom of baking dish. Lightly drizzle 1/3 of margarine over bread. Sprinkle 2-1/2 tbsp. sugar on top and cover with half the raspberries or other fruit. Repeat with another layer of bread (pattern differently from bottom layer) and top with 1/3 of margarine, 2-1/2 tbsp. sugar and remaining fruit. Cover with remaining bread, margarine and sugar. Sprinkle with cinnamon.
Cover and bake for 25 minutes; uncover and bake for an additional 10 to 15 minutes.

Serving suggestions: It can be the main morning event or part of a big brunch lineup. Serve it with more raspberries or whatever ripe fruit you have on hand, with yogurt or even heavy cream on the side.
For a lighter version, replace the eggs with an equal amount of egg substitute.
The casserole comes out dense and creamy -- almost like bread pudding.
