Around the World Low-Fat Meals in Minutes

This recipe is from Around the World Low-Fat & No-Fat Meals in Minutes. As the name implies this book has recipes that are a little different than the standard low-fat cookbooks.
This particular recipe is supposedly from Indonesia but it doesn't seem too authentic to me. It does sound like it would be good though.

Pineapple Coconut Bread Pudding

Nonstick cooking spray
3 cups cubed white bread
15-ounce can crushed pineapple in juice, drained, reserve juice
3 eggs or 3/4 cup egg substitute
1/3 cup brown sugar
1/2 teaspoon lemon peel
1/2 teaspoon cinnamon
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 cup coconut juice (note: it calls for juice not milk)
Lemon yogurt for garnish
Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Spray a 10"x6" baking dish with cooking spray. Place bread cubes in the pan. Spread drained crushed pineapple over the bread. In a medium mixing bow, beat eggs until they foam. Stir in brown sugar, lemon peel, cinnamon, salt, pineapple juice, and coconut juice. Pour over the bread cubes and pineapple. Bake for 35 minutes or until a knife inserted in the center comes out clean. Cool slightly, then cut into 12 squares. Garnish with a dab of lemon yogurt, if desired. 162 calories per serving
