Steps:
- Combine the raisins and boiling water in a bowl and set aside for 10 minutes. In the container of a food processor, combine 1/2cup of the pecan halves and sugar and pulse until the pecans are very finely ground. Set aside. Thoroughly drain the raisins and set them aside.
- Place the warm water and yeast in a large bowl. Break the poolish into small pieces with your hands or a wooden spoon and add it to the bowl. Stir until fairly dissolved. Stir in the flour, ground pecans and sugar and salt. Stir until combined.
- Turn the mixture out onto a lightly floured surface and knead for 10 minutes. Slowly begin to fold in the raisins and the remaining pecan halves a little at a time. Return the dough to the bowl, cover with a tea towel and let rise until doubled in bulk, 1 to 2 hours.
- Gently turn the dough out onto a lightly floured surface and cut into 3 equal pieces. Leave the pieces on your work surface and cover them with a tea towel. Let them rest for 10 minutes.
- Gently shape each piece into a short log and place the logs on a sheet pan lined with parchment paper. Cover with the tea towel and let rise until the loaves just hold a fingerprint when lightly pressed, 30 minutes to 1 hour.
- When ready to bake, preheat oven to 375 degrees and have a plant sprayer full of fresh water ready. Using a single-sided razor at a 30-degree angle, slash the loaves diagonally with 2 3-inch slashes each. When the oven is hot, spray it thoroughly with water and immediately put the bread in and close the door. Spray the oven (not the bread) again 2 more times during the first 5 minutes of baking. Bake until bread is very brown and sounds hollow when the bottom is tapped, 25 to 30 minutes more.
- Remove the loaves from the oven and cool them on a wire rack.
Tips:
- Choose the Right Bread: Use sturdy bread that can withstand the moisture of the casserole, such as French bread, sourdough, or challah.
- Don't Overcrowd the Casserole Dish: Layer the bread, pecan-raisin filling, and custard mixture loosely to ensure even cooking and prevent sogginess.
- Custard Texture: Adjust the amount of milk or cream in the custard mixture to achieve your desired consistency. For a denser casserole, use less liquid.
- Baking Time and Temperature: Bake the casserole at 350°F (175°C) for about 45-50 minutes, or until the custard is set and the top is golden brown.
- Serving: Allow the casserole to cool slightly before slicing and serving. Enjoy it warm or at room temperature.
Conclusion:
Pecan-raisin bread morning casserole is a delightful and versatile dish that combines the flavors of sweet pecans, plump raisins, and tender bread soaked in a creamy custard mixture. It's a perfect make-ahead breakfast or brunch option, as it can be prepared the night before and baked in the morning.
