Gone In A Hurry Bread Pudding

This one doesn't last for long at our home and it won't at yours either! It is easy to make and you can use up all your old bread, which is a bonus! I shared another bread pudding before but this recipe is slightly different and just as yummy!

1 whole wheat bread (could be leftover stale bread)
2 cups soy milk or a little more
3/4 cup brown sugar or more if so desired
1/2 tsp. salt
1/2 cup raisins
1/2 cup sliced almonds
1/4 cup pitted date pieces
10 or 12 prunes, pitted

In a bowl, shred the bread, pour the milk on it and let it soak through. If you need a bit more to thoroughly soak the bread, add it cautiously, you don't want it to be too runny. Add the rest of the ingredients, except the prunes, forming a dough that is not too loose. Taste for sugar. If you would like to, add more. Mix thoroughly.
Put mixture in a baking dish and bake at 350º F for 40 minutes. Meanwhile, prepare the syrup.
In a small saucepan, put the prunes, cover them with water and add 3 to 4 tablespoons of brown sugar and cook over a medium heat until you have a light syrup. When the bread pudding is done, pour the syrup on top while still in the baking dish and let it soak into the pudding.

"God's mercy and love for the fallen race have not ceased to accumulate, nor lost their earthward direction.
It is true that disappointments will come; tribulation we must expect; but we are to commit everything, great and small, to God. He does not become perplexed by the multiplicity of our grievances, nor overpowered by the weight of our burdens. His watchare extends to every household, and encircles every individual; He is concerned in all our business and our sorrows. He marks every tear; He is touched with the feeling of our infirmities. All the afflictions and trials that befall us here are permitted, to work out His purposes of love toward us—'that we might be partakers of His holiness,' and thus become participants in that fullness of joy which is found in His presence."

The Lord is my shepherd; I shall not want.He maketh me to
lie down in green pastures: he leadeth me beside the still waters. He
restoreth my soul: he leadeth me in the paths of righteousness for his name's
sake. Yea, though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death, I will fear no
evil: for thou art with me; thy rod and thy staff they comfort me. Thou preparest a table
before me in the presence of mine enemies: thou anointest my head with oil; my cup
Runneth over. Surely goodness and mercy shall follow me all the days of
my life: and I will dwell in the house of the Lord for ever.
