BREAD PUDDING WITH PEACHES AND BOURBON SAUCE

• In a medium bowl, whisk together the egg substitute, 1 cup milk, and sugar. Pour into the custard cups. Leave the custard cups on the baking sheet.
• Bake for 30 to 35 minutes, or until the center of the pudding is set. (Bake for the same amount of time if using the baking pan, but don't set it on the baking sheet.)
• About 10 minutes before the pudding is done, make the sauce. Put the remaining 1 cup milk and pudding mix in a medium saucepan. Whisk together for 30 to 60 seconds, or until well blended. Bring to a boil over medium-high heat, 2 to 3 minutes, whisking occasionally.
• Reduce the heat to medium low. Whisk in the bourbon. Cook for 1 to 2 minutes, or until almost the desired consistency. (The sauce will thicken more as it stands.) Keep the sauce warm over low heat until the pudding is done.
