PEACH BREAD PUDDING WITH BOURBON CARAMEL RECIPE



Peach Bread Pudding with Bourbon Caramel Recipe image

Bread pudding is often thought of as a winter dessert, but it is just as scrumptious in the summertime when filled with fresh peaches and topped with a boozy caramel sauce. A scoop of vanilla ice cream on top is optional-but highly recommended. A spiked caramel sauce makes this bread pudding truly spectacular. Resist the urge to stir the caramel as it cooks, and watch it closely. Once it starts to brown, it can easily turn too dark and become bitter.

Time 9h30m

Yield Serves 10 to 12

Number Of Ingredients 15

5 large eggs, separated
1 cup whole milk
1 tablespoon vanilla extract
1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1/4 teaspoon kosher salt
2 cups heavy cream
2/3 cup granulated sugar
1 (16-oz.) challah bread loaf, cut into 1-inch cubes (about 11 1/2 cups)
3-4 fresh peaches
4 tablespoons salted butter, cut into small pieces, plus more for dish
2 tablespoons unsalted butter
1/4 cup water
1 cup granulated sugar
1 cup heavy cream, at room temperature
2 ounces (1/4 cup) bourbon

Steps:

  • Prepare the Bread Pudding: Whisk together egg yolks, milk, vanilla extract, cinnamon, salt, 2 cups heavy cream, and 2/3 cup granulated sugar in a large bowl until thoroughly combined. Add bread pieces, and toss to coat pieces evenly. Cover and chill 8 to 12 hours to allow bread to absorb the liquid.
  • Preheat oven to 350°F. Gently rub peaches under running water to remove fuzz, and chop peaches. (You will have about 6 1/2 cups.) Beat egg whites with an electric mixer on high speed until soft peaks form. Remove soaked bread from refrigerator; stir in 4 tablespoons salted butter pieces and chopped peaches. Fold in whipped egg whites until combined. Transfer mixture to a well-greased (with butter) 13- x 9-inch baking dish or a large cast-iron skillet. Cover loosely with aluminum foil, and bake in preheated oven until it puffs in the center, about 45 minutes. Remove foil, and bake until the top is lightly browned, 25 to 30 minutes.
  • Prepare the Bourbon Caramel: Melt 2 tablespoons unsalted butter in a medium saucepan over medium-high; stir in water and 1 cup granulated sugar. Cook, without stirring, until mixture is a medium shade of brown, 4 to 6 minutes. Carefully whisk in 1 cup heavy cream. (Mixture will bubble up as the cream is added.) Remove from heat, and whisk in bourbon. Serve Bourbon Caramel warm with the Bread Pudding.

DRUNKEN BRANDY-PEACH BREAD PUDDING



Drunken Brandy-Peach Bread Pudding image

Categories     Bread     Sauce     Dessert     Bake     Peach     Brandy     Boil

Yield serves 12 to 14 with leftovers

Number Of Ingredients 14

Peach Bread Pudding
2 cups granulated sugar
4 cups half-and-half or heavy whipping cream
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
3 large eggs
1 loaf challah or French bread, cut or torn into 2-inch chunks
3 cups chopped fresh peaches (about 6 peaches)
1 cup pecan halves
Peach Brandy Sauce
1/2 cup (1 stick) unsalted butter
1 cup firmly packed golden brown sugar
1 large egg
Pinch of kosher salt
1/4 cup peach brandy or liqueur of your choice

Steps:

  • TO MAKE THE BREAD PUDDING: Preheat the oven to 350°F. Grease a 9 by 13-inch baking pan with butter or cooking spray. Mix the granulated sugar, half-and-half, and cinnamon in a large saucepan over medium heat. Stir occasionally until the sugar dissolves. (No need to boil the mixture.) Remove the saucepan from the heat.
  • Whisk the 3 eggs in a bowl until the whites and yolks are combined. Pour about 1/4 cup of the hot cream mixture into the eggs, whisking as you pour. (This tempers the eggs, which keeps them from curdling when they are mixed into the hot cream mixture.) Pour the tempered egg mixture into the cream mixture left in the saucepan and whisk until the sauce is smooth.
  • Gently combine the bread cubes and peaches in a large bowl. Spoon into the prepared pan. Pour the sauce over the peach-bread mixture and let sit for about 30 minutes to let the sauce soak into the bread. Sprinkle the pecans on top.
  • Bake until the pudding is firm and lightly browned on top, about 1 hour. Cut into squares and serve warm or at room temperature with warm Peach Brandy Sauce.
  • TO MAKE THE PEACH BRANDY SAUCE: Melt the butter and brown sugar together in a saucepan set over medium heat. Remove the mixture from the heat. In a bowl, whisk the 1 egg with a fork. Temper the egg by adding about 2 tablespoons of the butter-sugar mixture to the egg and whisk constantly until the egg is incorporated. Pour the tempered egg mixture into the saucepan with the remaining sugar-butter mixture and whisk until the sauce is smooth. Add the salt and whisk in the brandy. Keep the sauce warm until ready to serve. Pour it over the bread putting as soon as it comes out of the oven.
  • do it early
  • The bread pudding can be made up to 12 hours in advance, covered, and refrigerated. Warm in a 300°F oven. The sauce can be made up to 48 hours in advance and refrigerated until ready to use. Reheat it in a heavy saucepan set over low heat until it is warm but not hot; or microwave it on medium power in a microwave-safe container until warm, about 1 to 2 minutes.

Tips:

  • Use ripe peaches for the best flavor. If fresh peaches are not available, you can use frozen or canned peaches, but be sure to drain them well before using.
  • Soak the bread cubes in the brandy mixture for at least 30 minutes, or up to overnight. This will help the bread to absorb the flavor of the brandy and other ingredients.
  • Use a heavy-bottomed skillet to cook the peaches. This will help to prevent them from burning.
  • Cook the peaches until they are soft and caramelized. This will take about 10-12 minutes.
  • Be sure to grease the baking dish before adding the bread pudding mixture. This will help to prevent the pudding from sticking.
  • Bake the bread pudding for 45-50 minutes, or until the top is golden brown and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
  • Serve the bread pudding warm with a dollop of whipped cream or ice cream.

Conclusion:

Drunken brandy peach bread pudding is a delicious and easy-to-make dessert that is perfect for any occasion. With its combination of soft, flavorful bread, sweet peaches, and a hint of brandy, this bread pudding is sure to be a hit with everyone who tries it.
