Time 1h25m

Yield 8 servings

Number Of Ingredients 21

Nonstick cooking spray or butter, for greasing
2 cups heavy cream
2 cups whole milk
3/4 cup light brown sugar
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1 teaspoon kosher salt
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
9 large egg yolks
3 1/2 cups Granny Smith apples, peeled and chopped
3/4 cup pecans, chopped and toasted
1 loaf challah bread, cut or torn into 1-inch pieces (preferably stale)
Caramel Dessert Sauce, recipe follows
Vanilla ice cream, for serving
3/4 cup sugar
1/2 cup (1 stick) unsalted butter
1/2 cup buttermilk
1 tablespoon light corn syrup
1 teaspoon baking soda
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon

  • Add the cubed apples, pecans and cubed bread to the prepared baking dish and toss to combine. Pour the custard over the bread and apple pieces.

Provided by senseicheryl

Categories     Dessert

Time 1h25m

Yield 1 1/2 quart dish, 8 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 12

1/4 cup unsalted butter
6 apples (Golden Delicious, McIntosh or Winesap apples, about 2 1/2 inches in diameter, peeled, halved and cor)
1 tablespoon lemon juice
1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1/2 cup brown sugar, packed, divided
1/2 cup dried cherries or 1/2 cup dried currant
4 cups brioche bread (cut or torn into 1 to 2 inch pieces) or 4 cups stale croissants (cut or torn into 1 to 2 inch pieces)
2 eggs, at room temperature
2 egg yolks, at room temperature
2 cups milk, room temperature
1 teaspoon vanilla
1/8 teaspoon ground nutmeg

Steps:

  • Place the baking rack in the center of the oven and heat to 350 degrees F.
  • Butter a shallow 1 1/2-quart baking dish (11 by 7 by 1 1/2 inches), or spray generously with cooking spray.
  • Cut the apples into 1/2-inch-thick slices. In a large bowl, mix together apples, lemon juice and cinnamon. Set aside.
  • Melt the 1/4 cup of butter and 1/4 cup brown sugar in a 10- to 12-inch heavy skillet over medium-high heat. Stir in the apple mixture using a wooden or heat-resistant spatula and cook over same medium-high heat, stirring frequently until the apples are softened and begin to turn golden brown, about 10 to 15 minutes. Stir in the walnuts or dried fruit and transfer the mixture to a large bowl. Set aside to cool slightly, about 10 minutes.
  • While the caramelized apple mixture is cooling, toast the bread on a baking sheet in the oven until crisp and the edges are just starting to color, about 6 to 8 minutes. Set aside on baking rack.

  • In a medium bowl combine the eggs, egg yolks, milk, remaining 1/4 cup of brown sugar, vanilla and nutmeg and whisk until the sugar is dissolved, about 2 minutes. Then pour evenly over the apple and bread mixture and let it sit for 10 minutes until the bread has absorbed the liquid.
  • Bake until puffed and browned on the top and the custard is set, about 45 to 55 minutes. Serve hot, warm or chilled.

LATE NIGHT CARAMEL APPLE BREAD PUDDING



Late night Caramel Apple Bread Pudding image

I have insomnia off and on and one night when I was up till the wee hours I figured I would just get some of my cookbooks out and see what I could find to make and I came across a caramel apple bread pudding recipe that sounded so good and I just happened to have all the ingredients so I went to work and this was the end result...

Provided by Jan Kimberly

Categories     Puddings

Time 1h20m

Number Of Ingredients 11

6 c stale white or wheat bread cut or torn into small pieces ( i use a mix of both)
3 c any kind of apple peeled and diced small
5 whole eggs, beaten
3 c half and half
1 c splenda brown sugar blend
1/4 tsp salt
2 tsp vanilla extract
2 tsp apple pie spice
1 stick butter, cold
1 can(s) sweetened condensed milk
1 bag kraft caramels, unwrapped

Steps:

  • 1. Preheat oven to 350. Lightly grease or spray a 9×13? baking dish with shortening or non-stick cooking spray.
  • 2. In a large bowl, toss together the bread cubes and the apple pieces. Transfer to the baking dish. In the same large bowl, whisk together the remaining ingredients except for the butter. When combined, continue to whisk while pouring over the bread/apple mixture (just to make sure the spices are evently distributed). Gently combine the bread and egg mixture, making sure each piece of bread is soaking in part of the egg and milk mixture. Allow to stand for at least 15 minutes (longer, if you can; you could even do this the night before, cover it tightly, and then bake it in the morning).
  • 3. Place the condensed milk into a microwaveable dish and put in half the caramels and microwave for 1 minute, then stir. Keep microwaving in 30 second intervals until all caramels are melted and blended smoothly with the condensed milk, make sure you add the whole bag of caramels to the milk. This process should take about 3 minutes.
  • 4. When the egg/milk mixture has mostly soaked into the bread, dab the butter over the bread and drizzle half the caramel mixture over the top, place the baking dish in the preheated oven and bake for 40-50 minutes or until the center is set but not dry. It will have a slight jiggle to it. Remove from oven and allow to stand for 5 minutes.
  • 5. Just before ready to serve, warm the caramel up again to thin it, about 18 seconds, and drizzle on top of each serving. Serve with vanilla ice cream to make a delicious desert! Enjoy.
