Egyptian Bread Pudding, known locally as "Om Ali," is a classic dessert rooted in Egyptian cuisine. This comforting dish combines layers of flaky bread or puff pastry soaked in a sweetened milk mixture, often mixed with nuts like pistachios and almonds, raisins, coconut, and spices such as cinnamon. Typically baked until golden and served warm, its rich texture and warm flavors make it a staple in festive meals and gatherings. While Om Ali is indulgent, it offers nutritional benefits from its nuts, providing healthy fats and proteins, and raisins, which add natural sweetness and fiber. However, its use of sugar, butter, and cream may contribute to a high calorie and fat content, making moderation key for those mindful of their diet. A versatile favorite, Egyptian Bread Pudding can be adapted for healthier versions by reducing sugar or substituting lighter dairy alternatives without sacrificing its signature hearty comfort.
