Cinnamon Apple Raisin Bread Pudding (Adapted from CL)

1/2 cup golden raisins
1/2 cup chopped cinnamon spiced dried apples
2 tablespoons Calvados
3 1/2 cups vanilla soymilk
3/4 cup sugar
1 tablespoon fresh grated lemon zest
1 tablespoon butter, melted
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1/8 teaspoon grated whole nutmeg
4 large eggs
12 ounces cubed cinnamon swirl bread

Preheat oven to 325

Microwave raisins, dried apple, and Calvados on high for 1 minute - cool completely.

In a large bowl, whisk together soymilk, sugar, lemon zest, butter, salt, cinnamon, nutmeg and eggs. Genlty mix in cubed bread and raisin mixture. Let sit 15 minutes to allow the bread to absorb the liquid. Pour into an 8" baking dish lightly coated with nonstick spray.

Bake until set in the center, about 50-60 minutes - be sure to turn around halfway through.
