GINGERBREAD BREAD PUDDING
This delicious bread pudding was inspired by canarygirl, Jane_in_RI, and *Denise*. I had a loaf of gingerbread in the freezer (#44268, by Sue L) and wanted to do something different. So we came up with this. And it is heavenly! A great change from everyday bread pudding, and wonderful for the cooler days of fall and winter.

Steps:
- Heat oven to 350°, grease an 8" square pan.
- I used a loaf size gingerbread for this, sliced and placed on a cookie sheet-toast in the oven for 5 or so minutes.
- Remove from oven, and cut into cubes.
- Place the cubes in the greased baking dish, they should just about fill the pan.
- Whisk the half and half, milk, eggs, sugar and vanilla in a bowl, and pour over the gingerbread.
- Let this sit for about 5 minutes.
- Cover the raisins with water and microwave for about one minute--drain off the water, then sprinkle them over the top of the pudding.
- Bake at 350° for 40-45 minutes.
- A knife inserted in the center will still look a bit wet, but mostly clean.
- Serve warm, with a bit of cream poured over, or whipped cream.

Steps:
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees F & butter a 1 1/2 quart baking dish.
- Lay the gingerbread slices, overlapping, in the prepared dish, then sprinkle the dried cranberries over the slices.
- In a large bowl, whisk together the eggs, milk, heavy cream, granulated sugar, brown sugar, cinnamon, ginger, salt & vanilla extract, then pour this mixture over the gingerbread, gently pressing the pieces of cake into the custard, before setting the baking dish aside for 10 minutes.
- Set the bread pudding on a baking sheet & bake for 30 to 35 minutes or until it is puffed & golden.
- It can be served hot, at room temperature or cold.
Tips:
- Use stale gingerbread. This will help the bread pudding to have a firmer texture.
- Don't overmix the batter. Overmixing will make the bread pudding tough.
- Bake the bread pudding in a water bath. This will help to prevent the bread pudding from drying out.
- Let the bread pudding cool slightly before serving. This will help the bread pudding to set.
- Serve the bread pudding with your favorite sauce or topping. Some popular options include vanilla sauce, caramel sauce, and whipped cream.
