Description
Custard Bread Pudding: An Incredible Ultimate Recipe for Everyone
Ingredients
Scale
- 6 cups day-old bread, cut into cubes
- 4 large eggs
- 2 cups whole milk
- 1 cup heavy cream
- 1 cup granulated sugar
- 1 tablespoon vanilla extract
- 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- ¼ teaspoon salt
- ½ cup raisins or other dried fruits (optional)
- Butter, for greasing the baking dish
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease a 9×13-inch baking dish with butter.
- Place the bread cubes in a large mixing bowl. If using, add raisins or other dried fruits, mixing them evenly.
- In a separate bowl, whisk together the eggs, milk, heavy cream, sugar, vanilla extract, ground cinnamon, and salt until well combined.
- Pour the custard mixture over the bread cubes, gently pressing down to ensure all pieces are soaked.
- Allow the mixture to sit for about 10-15 minutes. This helps the bread absorb the custard.
- Pour the soaked bread mixture into the prepared baking dish, spreading it evenly.
- Bake in the preheated oven for 45-50 minutes or until the top is golden brown and the custard is set.
- Remove from the oven and let it cool for about 15-20 minutes before serving.
Notes
- This recipe yields a creamy and flavorful pudding.
- You can substitute the raisins with other dried fruits if desired.
- Adjust the sugar to taste if you prefer a less sweet pudding.
