Provided by Kelsey Nixon

Categories     dessert

Time 1h25m

Yield 8 servings

Number Of Ingredients 21

Nonstick cooking spray or butter, for greasing
2 cups heavy cream
2 cups whole milk
3/4 cup light brown sugar
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1 teaspoon kosher salt
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
9 large egg yolks
3 1/2 cups Granny Smith apples, peeled and chopped
3/4 cup pecans, chopped and toasted
1 loaf challah bread, cut or torn into 1-inch pieces (preferably stale)
Caramel Dessert Sauce, recipe follows
Vanilla ice cream, for serving
3/4 cup sugar
1/2 cup (1 stick) unsalted butter
1/2 cup buttermilk
1 tablespoon light corn syrup
1 teaspoon baking soda
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
Pinch salt

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Grease a 9 by 13-inch baking dish with cooking spray or butter.
  • In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the heavy cream, whole milk, brown sugar, cinnamon, salt, vanilla and egg yolks and set aside.
  • Add the cubed apples, pecans and cubed bread to the prepared baking dish and toss to combine. Pour the custard over the bread and apple pieces. Carefully toss to coat, making sure that the cubed bread is submerged in the custard, and let stand to allow the bread to soak up the custard, 10 to 15 minutes.
  • Bake until the center has set, about 45 minutes. Let cool for 5 minutes. Drizzle Caramel Dessert Sauce over the bread pudding. Serve with extra sauce and vanilla ice cream.
  • In a heavy-bottomed saucepan, combine the sugar, butter, buttermilk and corn syrup. Bring to a boil over medium-high heat and cook for 1 minute. Remove from the heat and slowly add the baking soda (it will foam up), followed by the vanilla and cinnamon. The sauce will thicken as it cools. Serve warm.

CARAMEL APPLE PUDDING



Caramel Apple Pudding image

Whipped cream desserts are a light and lovely affair, especially at the end of a big meal like Thanksgiving. Some people love crunch, but the particular joy of this pudding lies in its voluptuous softness, as it needs to sit in the fridge overnight for the layers to cohere: vanilla cookies, caramel-fried apples and salted cinnamon whipped cream. It's an airy fall dream in dessert form.

Time 35m

Yield 6 to 8 servings

Number Of Ingredients 11

4 tablespoons unsalted butter
2 large crisp sweet-tart apples (1 pound), such as Fuji or Pink Lady, unpeeled and finely chopped (see Tip)
1/4 cup lemon juice (from 1 to 2 lemons)
1/4 packed cup dark brown sugar
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1/2 teaspoon kosher salt (Diamond Crystal)
2 cups very cold heavy whipping cream
1 packed tablespoon dark brown sugar
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1/2 teaspoon kosher salt (Diamond Crystal)
1 (11-ounce) box vanilla wafers

Steps:

  • Make the caramel apples: Melt the butter in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the apples, lemon juice, brown sugar, cinnamon and salt and cook, stirring occasionally, until the apples are tender and the liquid is reduced but saucy with the consistency of chunky applesauce, 15 to 20 minutes. Set aside to cool slightly.
  • Meanwhile, make the whipped cream: In a large bowl, using a large whisk or an electric mixer, whisk the cream, brown sugar, cinnamon and salt until soft peaks form. (When you lift the whisk out of the bowl and turn it whisk-side up, a peak of cream should flop over onto itself.) Don't overbeat; you're looking for a soft-set whipped cream that drapes rather than plops.
  • Assemble the pudding: In a medium bowl or other serving vessel (preferably clear), arrange one-third of the vanilla wafers at the bottom, top with half of the caramel apples, then spread with half of the whipped cream. Repeat these layers once more and end with a final sprinkle of crushed vanilla wafers on top. (If you want crunch, save this final sprinkle for right before serving.) Cover and refrigerate until the cookies are soft, about 8 hours and up to 24 hours.

Tips:

  • Use a heavy-bottomed pot: This will help prevent the caramel from burning.
  • Don't stir the caramel too much: Stirring the caramel too much can cause it to crystallize.
  • Use a candy thermometer: This will help you ensure that the caramel reaches the correct temperature.
  • Work quickly: Caramel hardens quickly, so you need to work quickly when making this recipe.
  • Be careful not to overcook the apples: Overcooked apples will become mushy.
  • Serve the pudding warm: Caramel apple pudding is best served warm, so it's best to make it just before you're ready to serve it.
  • Garnish with whipped cream or ice cream: Caramel apple pudding is delicious served with whipped cream or ice cream.

Conclusion:

Caramel apple pudding is a delicious and easy-to-make dessert that is perfect for any occasion. The combination of sweet and tart apples, creamy caramel, and flaky puff pastry is simply irresistible. With just a few simple ingredients, you can create a dessert that will impress your family and friends. So next time you're looking for a delicious and easy-to-make dessert, give caramel apple pudding a try.
