Steps:
- Preheat oven to 325º. Coat the bottom and sides of a 13x9 baking dish heavily with butter. Tear cinnamon bread into 1-inch pieces. Mix with raisins and spread evenly in the prepared baking dish, turning bread crust-side down to prevent burning.
- In a bowl, whisk together milk, heavy whipping cream, sugar, vanilla, eggs and cinnamon until blended. Pour over the bread mixture, soaking the bread thoroughly.
- Bake for 1 hour, or until the pudding has firmed.
- To make the praline sauce, heat ½ cup of butter in a large saucepan until melted. Use a large saucepan, as the mixture will foam. Add pecans to melted butter and mix well. Bring to a boil. Boil until the pecans begin to change color. Add the remaining butter and mix well, then remove from heat. In a second saucepan, combine the brown sugar, heavy whipping cream and cinnamon, and mix well. Cook over low heat until the mixture has blended, stirring constantly. Increase the heat, and continue stirring. Cook until the temperature reaches 230º (use a candy thermometer). Stir in the pecan mixture. Add the sour cream and vanilla, and mix well. Remove from heat.
- Serve bread pudding topped in warm praline sauce with a scoop of vanilla ice cream next to the pudding, and a dollop of whipped cream, if desired.

PRALINE BREAD PUDDING
Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Grease muffin tins with the butter.
- In a mixing bowl, whisk the eggs, sugar, cinnamon, nutmeg, and vanilla together. Whisk in the cream and milk. Fold in the bread and pralines. Cover the mixture with plastic wrap and refrigerate for 2 hours.
- Spoon the filling into each muffin tin. Place the muffin tin on a baking sheet and bake for about 30 to 35 minutes or until the center is firm. Serve the pudding with the Anglaise sauce.
- In a heavy-bottomed saucepan, combine the light brown sugar, granulated sugar, heavy cream, butter, and water. Place over a medium-high heat and stir constantly until the pralines reach the softball stage, 238 to 240 degrees F. Add the pecans to the candy, and pull the pan off the stove. Continue to stir the candy vigorously with a wooden spoon until the candy cools, and the pecans remain suspended in the candy, about 2 minutes. Spoon the pralines out onto a parchment or aluminum foil lined sheet pan and cool completely before serving.
- Heat the heavy cream, milk, and vanilla bean in a large, heavy-bottomed saucepan over medium heat. Place the egg yolks and sugar in a heatproof mixing bowl and beat until pale yellow in color and all of the sugar has dissolved. Temper about a half cup of the cream mixture into the egg mixture and whisk vigorously to incorporate well. Add the egg mixture to the saucepan with the cream mixture and cook, stirring constantly with a whisk, or wooden spoon. Be sure to stir in the corners of the pot and lower the heat slightly. Stir the mixture for 4 to 5 minutes or until the custard has thickened enough to coat the back of a spoon.
- Remove from the stove and strain the custard through a fine mesh sieve into a clean bowl. Place the bowl in another bowl half-filled with ice and water to cool the custard. To chill the custard faster, stir it occasionally with a spoon.
BREAD PUDDING WITH HOMEMADE CARAMEL SAUCE
My famous bread pudding is a sweet way to make use of the day-old dinner rolls that didn't get gobbled up at Thanksgiving. The combination of the soft pudding with the sweet, velvety smooth sauce is a match made in heaven. -Anita Geoghagan, Woodstock, Georgia

Steps:
- 1. Generously butter a rectangular baking dish (13 x 9 x 2 1/2 inches); use the prettiest one you have. Set out a large shallow pan for the water bath. Cut the bread across into 3/4-inch-thick slices. If you are not using a braided bread, cut slices into four triangles each. Arrange bread slices in rows, leaning and overlapping them, if necessary.
- 2. In a large bowl, using an electric mixer, beat the eggs on high until light golden and slightly thickened, about 3 minutes. Beat in the cream, milk, granulated sugar, vanilla, salt, and nutmeg. Pour over the bread in the dish, lifting the bread up slightly to pour between the slices and letting the custard soak in (this is important; see The Junior's Way).
- 3. Using a pastry cutter or two knives, combine all praline topping ingredients, except syrup. Using your hands, spread the mixture over the top of the soaked challah, pushing some down between the slices. Cover the plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 1 hour or preferably overnight.
- 4. Preheat the oven to 350°F. Remove the plastic wrap and drizzle the maple syrup over the top. Place the dish in the center of a larger pan. Pour hot water into the pan until it comes 1 inch up the side of the baking dish. Bake until the pudding is puffy, souffléd, and golden brown, 35 to 40 minutes (don't let it overbake or get too brown). Touch it: The top should be spongy, not dry or crusty. The bread pudding is best served piping hot, right out of the oven.
BEST BREAD PUDDING WITH VANILLA SAUCE
We found this recipe tucked inside my mom's Bible when going through her things. It has become a family tradition on the first snow day of the year and if that doesn't happen, which can be the case here in central Virginia, we know it'll be the featured dessert at Easter and anytime a comfort food is in order.

Steps:
- For praline:
- Spray rimmed baking sheet with nonstick spray. Stir sugar and 1/4 cup water in heavy small saucepan over medium heat until sugar dissolves. Increase heat to high and boil without stirring until mixture turns deep amber color, occasionally swirling pan and brushing down sides with wet pastry brush, about 7 minutes. Stir in nuts. Quickly spread nuts on prepared sheet. Cool. Chop praline into small pieces. (Can be made 1 day ahead. Store in airtight container at room temperature.)

- Whisk eggs, cream, sugar, 1 cup maple syrup, and vanilla in large bowl to blend. Add brioche; stir to coat. Let stand at room temperature 1 hour, stirring occasionally.
- Preheat oven to 375°F. Butter 13x9x2-inch baking dish. Transfer bread mixture to prepared dish. Bake until puffed and golden and toothpick inserted into center comes out clean, about 40 minutes. Cool slightly. Cut into 6 to 8 pieces. Place 1 piece pudding on each plate. Place scoop of ice cream atop pudding, drizzle with maple syrup, sprinkle with praline, and serve.
Tips:
- Use stale or day-old bread for the best texture. Fresh bread will be too soft and mushy.
- Cut the bread into 1-inch cubes for even cooking.
- Use a variety of breads for a more interesting flavor and texture. For example, you could use a combination of white bread, wheat bread, and sourdough bread.
- Soak the bread cubes in the custard mixture for at least 30 minutes, or up to overnight. This will help the bread to absorb the custard and become more flavorful.
- Bake the bread pudding in a water bath to prevent it from drying out. This will also help to create a smooth and creamy texture.
- Serve the bread pudding warm with your favorite sauce. Some popular options include praline sauce, vanilla sauce, and caramel sauce.
Conclusion:
Bread pudding is an easy and delicious dessert that can be made with a variety of ingredients. It's a great way to use up leftover bread, and it's also a perfect dessert for a special occasion.
