BOBBY FLAY'S PUMPKIN BREAD PUDDING



Bobby Flay's Pumpkin Bread Pudding image

Adapted from Bobby Flay's "Bold American Food" Book. This scrumptious dessert offers a double twist: pumpkin without the pie and bread pudding that goes pumpkiny. The first step is to make the pumpkin bread, which needs to get stale for a few days, so advance preparation is not only possible but recommended. Make the custard the day of serving.

Categories     Dessert

Time 3h

Yield 9-10 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 21

1 3/4 cups all purpose flour
1/4 teaspoon baking powder
1 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon baking soda
1 teaspoon cinnamon
1/2 teaspoon ground cloves
2 eggs
1/3 cup unsalted butter
3/4 cup sugar
1 cup pumpkin puree
1/3 cup milk
1 teaspoon vanilla
5 egg yolks
1 cup milk
1 cup cream
1/2 cup sugar
1 -2 ounce Bourbon (optional) or 1 -2 ounce whiskey (optional)
1/4 cup pumpkin puree
1 teaspoon vanilla
1 pinch salt
ground cinammon nutmeg, ginger

Steps:

  • For the bread:.
  • In a bowl, combine 1 3/4 cup all-purpose flour, 1/4 teaspoons baking powder, 1 teaspoons salt, 1 teaspoons baking soda, 1 teaspoons cinnamon and 1/2 teaspoons ground cloves.
  • In a separate, larger bowl, beat 2 eggs, 1/3 cup unsalted butter and 3/4 cup sugar until fluffy. Add 1 cup pumpkin puree, 1/3 cup milk and 1 teaspoons vanilla.
  • With a rubber spatula, add dry ingredients to wet and incorporate til blended.
  • Bake in a 350 oven in a greased loaf pan, about 1 hour, or until an inserted skewer comes out clean. Let cool and invert.
  • Cut half of your bread into cubes when cool and let get stale before continuing with recipe. The other half is great for breakfast.
  • For the pudding:.
  • Preheat oven to 300 degrees.
  • Scald 1 cup milk, 1 cup cream and 2 teaspoons sugar. This means warming, just below boiling point, not scorching the milk. Make sure a skin has not developed on the surface; if so, remove. Optional add-on: 1 or 2 ounces of your favorite bourbon, whiskey or rum.
  • Combine 5 egg yolks, 1/4 cup canned pumpkin puree, 1 teaspoons vanilla, pinch of salt, 1/4 teaspoons each of ground cinnamon, nutmeg and ginger and 1/2 cup sugar (minus 2 tsp.) and whisk.
  • Ladle one or two ladles of milk into the egg mixture and whisk. You want to gently bring up the temperature of the egg mixture before adding to the milk. This process, tempering, helps to prevent curdling. Incorporate all of egg mixture into milk and stir, on low to medium heat, with wooden spoon until mixture has body and thickness. A good barometer is a visible streak made with your finger on the back of spoon.
  • Take off heat. Pour over bread cubes, which are waiting in a 2-quart buttered pan (approximate size).
  • Pour about 1 inch of water into a larger pan and set pudding pan inside. Water should be half way up the pan. This is called a bain-marie or water bath. Bake for about 50 minutes, or until custard is set. Serve warm or at room temperature. Not very tasty served cold from the fridge.
  • Serves at least 9, maybe a few more.

PUMPKIN BREAD WITH BROWN BUTTER AND BOURBON



Pumpkin Bread With Brown Butter and Bourbon image

This hearty pumpkin bread is a sophisticated twist on the traditional version with the addition of bourbon (teetotalers can substitute apple cider), browned butter and cardamom.

Provided by Melissa Clark

Categories     breads, quick breads, dessert, side dish

Time 1h15m

Yield Two 8-inch loaves

Number Of Ingredients 14

1/2 cup (1 stick) unsalted butter
1/4 cup bourbon (or use water or apple cider)
1 tablespoon vanilla
1 3/4 cups pumpkin purée, homemade or canned (1 15-ounce can)
4 eggs
1/2 cup olive or other oil (such as canola)
2 cups all-purpose flour
1 cup whole wheat flour
1 3/4 cups light brown sugar
1 1/2 teaspoons baking soda
1 teaspoon fine sea salt
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1/2 teaspoon ground ginger
1/2 teaspoon ground cardamom

Steps:

  • Heat oven to 350 degrees and arrange a rack in the center. Grease the insides of two 8-inch loaf pans with butter or line with parchment paper.
  • In a large skillet, melt 1/2 cup (1 stick) butter over medium-high heat. Reduce heat to medium and cook until the frothy white milk solids sink to the bottom of the pan and turn a fragrant, nutty brown, 5 to 7 minutes. Brown butter can burn quickly, so watch it carefully. (A tip: You will know your brown butter is almost ready when the frantic sound of bubbling begins to die down, so use your ears as well as your eyes and nose.)
  • In a glass liquid measuring cup, combine bourbon and vanilla. Add water until you reach the 2/3 cup mark. In a large bowl, whisk together bourbon mixture, pumpkin purée, eggs and oil. With a spatula, scrape all the brown butter from the skillet into the pumpkin mixture and stir to combine.
  • In another large bowl, whisk together all-purpose flour, whole wheat flour, brown sugar, baking soda, salt, cinnamon, ginger and cardamom. Pour liquid ingredients into dry ingredients and stir to combine.
  • Divide batter between the two greased loaf pans. Place them on a rimmed baking sheet and transfer to oven. Bake for 50 to 60 minutes or until a tester or toothpick inserted into the center of the loaf comes out clean. Allow bread to cool completely before removing from pan.

Tips:

  • Use fresh, high-quality ingredients for the best flavor.
  • If you don't have a slow cooker, you can bake the bread pudding in a preheated oven at 350°F for about 45 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
  • To make a gluten-free version of the bread pudding, use gluten-free bread cubes.
  • You can add other ingredients to the bread pudding, such as chopped nuts, dried fruit, or chocolate chips.
  • Serve the bread pudding warm with whipped cream, ice cream, or a drizzle of maple syrup.

Conclusion:

Bourbon-spiked pumpkin bread pudding is a delicious and easy-to-make dessert that is perfect for fall gatherings. The combination of pumpkin, spices, and bourbon gives the bread pudding a warm and inviting flavor. The slow cooker cooks the bread pudding slowly and evenly, resulting in a moist and tender texture. Whether you serve it warm with whipped cream or ice cream, or cold as a snack, this bread pudding is sure to be a hit.
