BREAD PUDDING WITH WHISKEY SAUCE (ABSOLUTELY DELICIOUS)



BREAD PUDDING WITH WHISKEY SAUCE (ABSOLUTELY DELICIOUS) image

Categories     Fruit     Egg

Number Of Ingredients 11

1 recipe - 6 eggs, ligthly beaten
3 cups (divided) white sugar
4 cups milk
1 cup heavy cream
1 tablespoon vanilla extract
1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1 loaf (1 pound) bread, cut into 1-inch cubes
1/2 cup golden raisins
3/4 cup butter
3/4 cup corn syrup
1/2 cup whiskey

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 300 degrees F (150 degrees C).
  • In a medium bowl, whip together eggs and 1 1/2 cups of sugar. Mix in milk, heavy cream, vanilla extract and cinnamon. Whip until smooth.
  • Arrange bread cubes in a medium baking dish, and top with golden raisins. Cover with the whipped mixture. Allow the bread to become saturated with the mixture.
  • Bake 45 minutes in the preheated oven, until lightly browned.
  • To make the sauce, mix the remaining sugar, butter and corn syrup in a medium saucepan over low heat. Remove from heat when thoroughly blended, and whisk in the whiskey.
  • Serve the sauce warm over bread pudding.

Tips:

  • Use high-quality bread: Stale or day-old bread is ideal, as it will soak up the custard better and result in a more moist bread pudding.
  • Choose your bread wisely: Different types of bread will yield different results. Brioche or challah will give you a richer, more decadent bread pudding, while a simple white bread will result in a lighter, airier texture.
  • Don't overmix the custard: Overmixing the custard can result in a tough, rubbery bread pudding. Mix just until the ingredients are combined.
  • Let the bread pudding rest: After baking, let the bread pudding cool for at least 30 minutes before serving. This will allow the flavors to meld and the pudding to set.
  • Serve with your favorite toppings: Bread pudding is delicious served with a variety of toppings, such as whipped cream, ice cream, fruit, or caramel sauce.

Conclusion:

Bread pudding is a classic comfort food that is easy to make and can be enjoyed by people of all ages. With its rich, custardy flavor and variety of toppings, bread pudding is a dessert that is sure to please everyone at your table. So next time you have some leftover bread, don't throw it away - make bread pudding instead!
