Apricot Bread Pudding
Apricots and almonds always make a good pairing. Even apricots that are less than sweet will develop an intense flavor when they bake. Separating the eggs and beating the whites to a soft meringue, then folding the meringue into the bread mixture lightens the bread pudding. It will puff when it bakes.
Turnip Gratin
A turnip gratin can be a rich, creamy affair, but this lighter version made with low-fat milk is equally delicious and comforting. When you use low-fat milk for a gratin, you will find quite a bit of liquid in the pan when you pull the dish from the oven. Let it sit for 20 to 30 minutes and the turnips will reabsorb the moisture. If any liquid remains in the dish, it’s delicious spooned over the gratin.
Pumpkin Gelato
This is like an ice cream version of pumpkin pie, but lighter. No eggs are required, and you can use low-fat milk. The important thing to remember here is that if you use fresh pumpkin for the purée, it must be roasted until very soft in order for the purée to be extremely fine.
Savory Bread Pudding With Swiss Chard and Red Pepper
Don’t throw out that stale baguette! Here an old bread gets new life after being soaked in milk and mixed with some cooked chard and red pepper. Topped with cheese it makes for an easy, thrifty, midweek meal.
Corn Pudding With Roasted Garlic and Sage
This comforting pudding has a rich, creamy texture, but the only “cream” comes from the juice of the corn kernels, which are puréed in a blender with a small amount of milk. Toasted garlic has a rich, earthy flavor.
