Yield Serves 8

Number Of Ingredients 8

softened butter, about 1 cup
8-9 thickish slices bread (homemade is best)
1 cup raisins soaked in cognac or sherry for 30 minutes
4 eggs
1/2 cup sugar
Pinch salt
1 quart half and half
1 teaspoon vanilla

Steps:

  • Butter a 2 1/2-quart pudding dish or soufflè dish. Trim the crusts from the bread and butter the slices well. Arrange them in the dish, buttered side down, in layers. Sprinkle each layer with some of the raisins. Beat the eggs lightly and add the sugar, salt, half and half and vanilla. Pour through a strainer over the bread and let stand for 30 minutes. Cover with foil and bake in a 350°F. oven for 35 minutes. Remove the foil and continue baking until the pudding is lightly browned and set. This will take about 30-35 minutes. Serve warm with cream.

I'm not sure what I did wrong, but my pudding turned out really dry. I think I might have added too much bread.

I'm not a big fan of raisins, so I omitted them from the recipe. The pudding was still delicious!

This pudding was a bit too sweet for my taste, but otherwise it was very good. I think I would reduce the amount of sugar next time.
