BASIC BREAD PUDDING II



Basic Bread Pudding II image

This bread pudding is very versatile and lovely in texture. Christmas time can inspire a bread pudding by simply substituting a good-quality eggnog for the milk (or part of it). Also add a pinch of nutmeg and mace to produce a sumptuous holiday dessert. Otherwise, enjoy this just as it is with a dollop of whipped cream.

The secret to incredible bread pudding with a soft middle and crisp edges starts with leftover dinner rolls. I picked up the rich brown sugar sauce recipe from my friend Kathryn Gartmann. A big drizzle of it takes this dessert over the top and really makes it the best bread pudding ever. -Maria Petrella, Taste of Home Prep Cook

BONNIE'S BREAD PUDDING



BONNIE'S BREAD PUDDING image

I had some leftover bread that I had baked, and decided to make a bread pudding to attempt to duplicate the recipe at Chuckarama, a buffet located here in St. George. It was a success, as this recipe tastes identical to the restuarant's bread pudding. Since I had just dumped it all in the dish without measuring, I then had to figure out the amounts to write the recipe! I hope you enjoy this pudding as much as we did! Enjoy! The photo is my own, and so is this humble recipe.

Number Of Ingredients 19

- ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
- pudding:
5 - thick slices of my bread recipe, torn into pieces
1/4 - cup bourbon whiskey
1 - pint heavy whipping cream
1 - tablespoon mexican vanilla
1/4 - cup brown sugar
1 - egg
2 - teaspoons cinnamon
1 - teaspoon nutmeg
- milk to add, see directions
3 - tablespoons real butter, cut
- optional : raisins 1/2 cup
- ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
- pouring glaze:
2 - tablespoons melted butter
1 - cup powdered sugar
1 - teaspoon mexican vanilla
2 to 4 - tablespoons hot water

Steps:

  • HOW TO DO IT: Use Pam to spray your casserole dish. Use 2 1/2 to 3 quart size. Tear up the bread into pieces into the dish. Add all of the ingredients: bread, whiskey, whipping cream, vanilla, brown sugar, egg, cinnamon and nutmeg. Add raisins if you want them. (Do not add the glaze ingredients.) Gently mix until well combined. Dot the top with the butter cut into small pieces. Add just enough milk to bring it almost to the top of the bread mixture, but not covering it.
  • BAKE IT: Preheat the oven to 350 degrees. Place the pudding in a shallow 9X13 pan of water and place in the oven. Bake for one hour. Carefully remove the dish from the pan of water and set on the stove. Using mitts, remove the VERY HOT pan of water. Be careful not to spill it on yourself! Put the pudding back in the oven on the rack for 15 minutes or until golden brown. It should be set. Do not overcook or it will dry it out. The pudding should still be moist, but lightly browned, like my photo.
  • GLAZE IT: Make a pouring glaze of 2 tablespoons, melted butter, 1 cup powdered sugar, 1 teaspoon Mexican vanilla and add water gradually 1 to 4 tablespoons and stir until you have a nice pourable glaze. Pour that all over the pudding and let it soak in. Serve warm. Enjoy!
  • Cook's Tip: I use the leftover bread from my recipe: White Bread -- Feather Light! It makes terrific bread pudding!

CREAMY RICE PUDDING - BONNIE STERN



Creamy Rice Pudding - Bonnie Stern image

"There's too much liquid", you're going to say. Trust me....this will work out to be the creamiest rice pudding you've ever made. Stir once in a while to prevent any rice from sticking to the bottom, and use a large pot to avoid the mixture from boiling over. Short grain rice will produce a creamier pudding then brown or long grain. The cooking time may seem long and tedious, but because it cooks at the lowest setting, it does not need constant supervision. Another wonderful recipe from her Heart Smart Cookbook.

Categories     Dessert

Time 1h15m

Yield 8 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 10

1 cup water
1/2 cup rice, short-grain is best
1/3 cup sugar
1 teaspoon cornstarch
1/16 teaspoon salt
5 cups milk, divided
1/8 teaspoon nutmeg
1/4 cup raisins
1 teaspoon vanilla
1 tablespoon cinnamon

Steps:

  • Bring water to a boil in a large saucepan. Add rice. Cover and return to the boil. Reduce to simmering and cook, covered, for 15 minutes or until water is absorbed.
  • Combine sugar, cornstarch and salt in a bowl. Whisk in 1 cup of the milk stirring until smooth.
  • Add sugar mixture, remaining 4 cups of milk, nutmeg and raisins to the rice. Stir well and bring to a boil.
  • Reduce to the lowest simmer setting, and cook, covered for 1 - 1-1/2 hours, or until mixture is creamy and tender. Stirring occasionally. Stir in vanilla.
  • Serve warm or cold, with a sprinkling of cinnamon.

Bonus tips and conclusion

  • Stale bread is ideal for bread pudding, as it absorbs the egg mixture more easily. If you don't have stale bread, you can dry it out by spreading it on a sheet in the freezer for a couple of hours or by to toast it in the toaster until it's dry, but not browned.
  • Use high-quality ingredients to make your bread pudding. This includes using fresh milk, butter, and eggs. If you use low-quality ingredients, your bread pudding will not taste as good.
  • Don't overcook your bread pudding. It should be set in the center, but it should still be moist. Overcooked bread pudding will be dry and crumbly.
  • Serve your bread pudding warm with a scoop of ice cream or a drizzle of caramel or whiskey cream sauces. You can also dust it with powdered sugar or a sprinkle of cinnamon.

Conclusion

Bread pudding is a delicious and easy-to-make dessert. It's perfect for using up stale bread, and it can be made with a variety of different ingredients. With so many different options, you're sure to find a bread pudding recipe that you love.
