Got stale bread? Don't toss it! Make tres leches bread pudding. Made with three different types of milk this recipe is perfect for day-old, dried up, stale bread. I used Oroweat® 12-grain bread which added a nuttier taste but white bread will also work. This is also egg-less!

2 1/4 cups whole milk
1 (14-ounce) can sweetened condensed milk
1 (12-ounce) can evaporated milk
1/2 cup sugar
1 tablespoon vanilla extract
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1 teaspoon kosher salt
9 large egg yolks
1 loaf challah bread, cut or torn into 1-inch pieces (stale is best)
3/4 cup slivered almonds, toasted

8 tablespoons (1 stick) unsalted butter
1/2 cup buttermilk
1 tablespoon light corn syrup
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
Pinch salt
1 teaspoon baking soda

Steps:

  • Coat the insert of a slow cooker with nonstick spray. Line the insert with aluminum foil for easy removal, letting some foil overhang for handles. Meanwhile, in a large mixing bowl, whisk together the whole milk, sweetened condensed milk, evaporated milk, sugar, vanilla, cinnamon, salt and egg yolks. Toss in the cubed bread and the almonds and mix to coat all the bread. Add the mixture to the slow cooker, cover and cook on low until the center of the bread pudding is set, about 4 hours. Remove the lid and cool. Use the foil handles to lift the bread pudding from the slow cooker. Drizzle individual servings with Cinnamon Sugar Sauce and top with freshly whipped cream.;
  • In a heavy-bottomed saucepan, combine the sugar, butter, buttermilk, corn syrup, vanilla and cinnamon and salt and bring to a boil over medium-high heat. Remove from the heat and slowly add the baking soda. At first the sauce will bubble up, just keep stirring. Sauce will thicken as it cools. Cook's Note: This syrup is a great addition to pancakes, waffles or any dessert.;

TRES LECHES BREAD PUDDING



Tres Leches Bread Pudding image

Pastel de tres leches, a traditional Latin American dessert, consists of a basic sponge cake doused in three types of milk: condensed, evaporated and whole milk or cream. Inspired by the classic cake, this bread pudding transforms those three milks into a rich custard that gets absorbed by buttery cubes of brioche. As it bakes in a water bath, it becomes golden and toasty on the top and soft and pillowy on the bottom. Serve it at any temperature with a dollop of whipped cream and a drizzle of condensed milk. If you have any leftovers, eat them for breakfast topped with a little Greek yogurt and some fresh fruit.

Time 4h20m

Yield 8 to 10 servings

Number Of Ingredients 10

Butter, for greasing the baking dish
3 large eggs
4 large egg yolks
2 cups/480 milliliters heavy cream
1 cup/240 milliliters condensed milk
1 cup/240 milliliters whole milk
1 (12-ounce/360-milliliters) can evaporated milk
2 teaspoons vanilla extract
1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
12 ounces/340 grams brioche, cut into 1 1/2-inch cubes (about 8 cups)

Steps:

  • Heat the oven to 350 degrees. Butter a 9-inch square baking dish.
  • In a large bowl, beat together the eggs and egg yolks until completely combined. Whisk in 1 cup/240 milliliters heavy cream, 3/4 cup/180 milliliters condensed milk, the whole milk, evaporated milk, vanilla and salt.
  • Set the bread in the prepared dish and pour the egg mixture on top. Press the bread down gently with a spatula to make sure all the pieces are immersed and soak up the liquid. Let stand at room temperature for 10 minutes.
  • Meanwhile, bring a kettle of water to a boil. Drizzle 2 tablespoons condensed milk over the pudding. Cover the baking dish tightly with aluminum foil then set it inside a large roasting pan. Pour the boiling water into the roasting pan until it reaches about halfway up the sides of the baking dish.
  • Bake until the center of the custard is almost set but still slightly wet, about 25 minutes. Carefully remove the foil and continue to bake until the custard is set in the center and the top is golden, about 30 minutes longer. Carefully remove the roasting pan from the oven and let the pudding cool in the water for about 20 minutes.
  • Whip the remaining 1 cup/240 milliliters heavy cream to soft peaks. Serve the pudding warm, room temperature or cold with a dollop of whipped cream. Drizzle with the remaining 2 tablespoons condensed milk.

Tips:

  • Use a stale loaf of bread for the best texture. If your bread is fresh, toast it in the oven at 350°F for 10-15 minutes before using it.
  • Don't overmix the bread pudding batter. Overmixing will make the pudding dense and heavy.
  • Be sure to let the bread pudding rest for at least 30 minutes before baking. This will allow the bread to absorb the custard and will result in a more evenly cooked pudding.
  • Serve the bread pudding warm with your favorite toppings, such as whipped cream, ice cream, or fresh berries.

Conclusion:

Tres leches bread pudding is a delicious and easy-to-make dessert that is perfect for any occasion. It is a great way to use up leftover bread, and it is sure to be a hit with your family and friends. So next time you are looking for a special dessert, give tres leches bread pudding a try!
