Sweet Potato Pie Bread Pudding

Combine all the ingredients (except the bread) in a large bowl, whisking until well combined. Add bread cubes and stir gently to coat.

Spoon mixture into an 8×8 inch square baking dish coated with cooking spray (alternately, you can prepare 6 individual ramekins). Cover and chill for at least 1 hour or up to 4 hours.

Preheat oven to 350°F.

Place square dish (or ramekins) in a 13×9 inch baking dish; add hot water to larger dish to a depth of 1 inch. Cover with foil, and bake at 350°F for 25 minutes (more like 15 minutes for individual ramekins). Uncover and bake an additional 10 minutes (or 5 minutes for ramekins).

Let cool for a few minutes. Serve warm or at room temperature.
