WALNUT AND APPLE BREAD PUDDING



Walnut and Apple Bread Pudding image

Apples and walnuts ripen at about the same time, and are often grown in the same region. Pair them with a crusty, rustic loaf of bread, some spices, milk, and eggs, and you've got a perfect dessert for a fall afternoon. Puddings and bread puddings are particularly easy to make in a slow cooker, and the results are nearly always perfect.

Yield serves 4 to 6

Number Of Ingredients 11

2 tablespoons unsalted butter
6 cups levain or country bread, cut into 1-inch cubes
2 Granny Smith apples, peeled, cored, and cut into 1-inch (or smaller) cubes
2 tablespoons ground cinnamon or apple pie spice
1 cup chopped walnuts
1/2 cup raisins
4 cups whole milk
1/2 cup sugar
4 large eggs
Whipped cream or ice cream, for serving
Brown sugar, for sprinkling

Steps:

  • Coat the interior of the slow cooker insert with the butter.
  • In a large mixing bowl, combine the bread, apples, cinnamon, walnuts, and raisins and mix them together as thoroughly as possible. (I use clean hands, the best mixing device I know of.) Place the bread and apple mixture in the slow cooker insert.
  • In a blender, combine the milk, sugar, and eggs and blend thoroughly. Gently pour the liquid over the bread, using a spoon to press the bread down into the liquid.
  • Cover and cook on low for about 3 hours, or until the liquid has been absorbed by the bread and a crust is beginning to form.
  • Turn off the slow cooker and allow the pudding to settle for 15 to 20 minutes, then spoon individual portions into bowls and top each portion with a generous serving of whipped cream and a sprinkling of brown sugar.
  • Tea or coffee are good choices here. If you can find one, a Canadian apple ice wine would be delightful.

Tips:

  • Use day-old whole wheat bread for a sturdier bread pudding.
  • If you don't have day-old bread, you can toast fresh bread in the oven at 350 degrees Fahrenheit for 10-15 minutes, or until it is lightly browned and crispy.
  • Use a variety of apples for a more complex flavor. Try using a mix of sweet and tart apples, such as Granny Smith, Honeycrisp, and Braeburn.
  • Add a handful of chopped walnuts for a nutty crunch. You can also use other nuts, such as pecans, almonds, or hazelnuts.
  • Use a combination of milk and cream for a richer flavor. You can also use all milk or all cream, but the pudding will be less rich.
  • Add a tablespoon of vanilla extract or a teaspoon of ground cinnamon for extra flavor.
  • Bake the bread pudding in a greased 8x8 inch baking dish for 45-50 minutes, or until the top is golden brown and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
  • Serve the bread pudding warm with a dollop of whipped cream or ice cream.
