Categories     Egg

Yield 8 to 10 servings

Number Of Ingredients 9

2 T light brown sugar
3/4 cup plus 1 T granulated sugar
1 loaf challah bread, cut into 3/4 inch cubes
9 large egg yolks
4 tsp vanilla extract
3/4 tsp table salt
2 1/2 cups heavy cream
2 1/2 cups milk
2 t unsalted butter, melted

Steps:

  • 1. Adjust oven racks to middle and lower-middle positions and heat oven to 325 degrees. Combine brown sugar and 1 T granulated sugar in small bowl; set aside. 2. Spread bread cubes in single layer on 2 rimmed baking sheets. Bake, tossing occasionally, until just dry, about 15 minutes, switching trays from top to bottom racks halfway through. Cool bread cubes about 15 minutes, set aside 2 cups. 3. Whisk yolks, remaining 3/4 cup sugar, vanilla, and salt together in large bowl. Whisk in cream and milk until combined. Add remaining 8 cups cooled bread and toss to coat. Transfer mixture to 9x13 pan and let stand, occasionally pressing bread into custard, until cubes are thoroughly saturated, about 30 minutes. 4. Spread reserved bread evenly over top of soaked bread and gently press into custard. Using pastry brush, dab melted butter over top of unsoaked bread pieces. Sprinkle brown sugar mixture evenly over top. Place bread pudding on rimmed baking sheet and bake on middle rack until custard has just set and pressing center of pudding with finger reveals no runny liquid, about 45 to 50 minutes. Transfer to wire rack and cool until pudding is set and just warm, about 45 minutes. Bourbon Brown Sugar sauce 1/2 cup packed light brown sugar 7 T heavy cream 2 1/2 T unsalted butter 1 1/2 T bourbon (or rum) Whisk brown sugar and heavy cream in small saucepan over medium heat until combined. Continue to cook, whisking frequently, until mixture comes to boil, about 5 minutes. Whisk in butter and bring mixture back to boil; about 1 minute. Remove from heat and whisk in bourbon. Cool to just warm; serve

I'm not usually a fan of bread pudding, but this recipe changed my mind. It's so light and fluffy, and the custard is perfectly creamy. I will definitely be making this again.

This bread pudding recipe is ridiculously easy to make and is so versatile. I used a mix of day-old croissants and brioche, and added some dried cranberries and chopped walnuts. It was a huge hit with my family!
