Time 2h30m

Yield 8 to 10 servings

Number Of Ingredients 17

1 large cinnamon-raisin bread boule, at least 1 day old or lightly toasted
1/2 cup whole milk
1/2 cup heavy cream
4 tablespoons (1/2 stick) unsalted butter
1/3 cup granulated sugar
1 teaspoon vanilla bean paste
3 large eggs, whisked
1/2 cup chocolate chunks
Nonstick cooking spray, for the parchment
2 tablespoons demerara sugar
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1/4 teaspoon kosher salt
2 cups heavy cream
1/4 cup granulated sugar
1 tablespoon ground cinnamon
1 teaspoon vanilla bean paste
Pinch of kosher salt

Steps:

  • For the bread pudding: Using a serrated knife, hollow out the boule. Cube the hollowed-out bread into 2-inch pieces and put in a large bowl. Using your fingers or a spoon, scrape any remaining bread from inside the boule to create a crusty bowl. Add any scraped bread to the bowl along with the bread cubes.
  • In a medium pot, gently heat the milk, cream, butter, granulated sugar and vanilla paste until the butter is melted and the sugar is dissolved. Let cool completely.
  • Add the eggs to the milk mixture and whisk until combined. Pour the custard over the cubed bread, stir in the chocolate chunks and let sit for 45 minutes to 1 hour.
  • Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
  • Line a baking sheet with parchment and spray with nonstick spray. Place the boule on the baking sheet. Pack the custard/bread mixture into the bread bowl. It will protrude a bit--that's a good thing! Mix together the demerara sugar, cinnamon and salt in a small bowl. Sprinkle the mixture on the top of the bread pudding. Bake until golden and crusty, 40 to 50 minutes. Let cool slightly.
  • For the whipped cream: In a cold bowl, mix together the cream, granulated sugar, cinnamon, vanilla paste and salt. Beat to medium peaks.
  • Cut the bread pudding into "slices" and top with the whipped cream.

This bread pudding was a bit dry for my taste. I think I would add more milk or cream next time.
