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.

  • Don't oversoak the bread: The bread should be just moistened, not soggy.
  • Use a variety of spices and flavorings: Add cinnamon, nutmeg, vanilla, or orange zest to the custard for extra flavor.
  • Bake the bread pudding in a water bath: This helps to create a moist and creamy texture.
  • Let the bread pudding cool slightly before serving: This allows the flavors to meld and the pudding to set.
