THE BEST BREAD PUDDING
Toasting the challah adds flavor, but more importantly, it helps the cubes to soak up and hold onto more of the deliciously rich custard (a high ratio of cream to milk makes it that way). And if that wasn't enough, we use not 1 but 2 vanilla beans to amp up the custard - plain old extract just doesn't do it justice. For a pleasing textural contrast, we top the pudding with turbinado sugar before baking to get a sweet crunch with every bite.

Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 300 degrees F. Grease a 9-by-13-inch baking dish with 1 tablespoon butter.
- Toast the bread cubes on a baking sheet until they start to dry and harden, about 20 minutes. Set aside. Raise the oven temperature to 325 degrees F.
- Whisk together the cream, milk, sugar, vanilla bean seeds, salt, cinnamon, eggs and yolks in a large bowl. Add the bread to the bowl and stir until completely coated. Cover and let soak for 30 minutes, pushing the bread down occasionally so that it is completely covered.
- Pour the bread mixture into the prepared baking dish. Microwave the remaining 2 tablespoons butter in a small microwave-safe dish until melted, about 1 minute. Drizzle the butter over top of the custard and then sprinkle with the turbinado sugar. Bake until the custard is set and the top is golden brown, 1 hour 15 minutes to 1 hour and 30 minutes. Let cool slightly before serving. Serve warm or at room temperature.

There's room for customization here: consider adding fresh or dried fruit or a combination of spices like cinnamon, nutmeg, allspice and cardamom. It makes a great brunch dish, served with fresh fruit compote. Or add a handful of chocolate chips before baking for a decidedly more decadent outcome.

BASIC BREAD PUDDING II
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.

Tips:
- Use a variety of bread for different textures and flavors. Stale bread works best, as it absorbs the custard more easily.
- Soak the bread in the custard mixture for at least 30 minutes, or overnight. This will allow the bread to absorb the custard and become soft and tender.
- Add a variety of spices, fruits, or nuts to the custard mixture for extra flavor. Popular additions include cinnamon, nutmeg, raisins, cranberries, and walnuts.
- Bake the bread pudding in a water bath to prevent it from drying out. This will also help to create a creamy and custard-like texture.
- Let the bread pudding cool slightly before serving. This will allow it to set and become more firm.
Conclusion:
Bread pudding is a delicious and versatile dessert that can be made with a variety of ingredients. It is a great way to use up leftover bread, and it can be easily customized to suit your own taste. Whether you like it classic or with a variety of mix-ins, bread pudding is sure to satisfy your sweet tooth.
