Categories     Dessert

Time 1h10m

Number Of Ingredients 12

Butter for greasing the baking dish ((about 1 - 2 tablespoons))
1/4 cup sugar ((to coat the baking dish)
8 eggs
1 1/2 cup sugar
2 cups heavy cream
1 cup milk (whole milk or 2% milk)
2 teaspoons vanilla extract
4 cups mixed berries (strawberries, raspberries and blueberries pictured in this recipe)
2 tablespoons berry liquor (Chambord) - (optional) (Grand Marnier can be used as well)
8 cups brioche bread, cubed or torn into 1 inch chunks
Whipped cream for serving (optional)
Extra Berries to garnish (optional)

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 375 degrees Fahrenheit
  • Butter an 8 x 11.5 inch (2 qt) baking dish and coat it with the 1/4 cup sugar
  • Trimming the berries: Rinse/clean the berries. Trim the strawberries and if they are large, cut them in half or quarters. You want all the berries to be somewhat similar in size in size.
  • In a medium bowl mix the berries. Pour the berry liquor over the berries and mix gently. Let the berries sit on the counter for about ten minutes. *See notes
  • In a large mixing bowl, whisk the eggs with the sugar and vanilla. Add the heavy cream and milk and whisk until well blended.
  • Place the bread cubes in a single layer inside the prepared baking dish (use a little more than half the amount of bread for this layer).
  • Pour half of the custard mixture over the bread. Press lightly so the bread absorbs the custard.
  • Spoon half of the berry mixture (and their juices, if any) over the custard soaked bread.
  • Top the berries with the remaining bread cubes and pour the rest of the custard over it. Press lightly. Place the remaining berries on top.
  • Bake for about 55 minutes to 1 hour or until set in the center. The top should look a bit golden.
  • Remove from the oven and let it cool for a few minutes before serving. This will help the bread pudding set a bit so it is easier to serve.Serve with whipped cream and garnish with extra berries (optional).

The Best Blueberry Bread Pudding image

Fresh blueberries, tangy sourdough bread, and a creamy custard make this blueberry bread pudding a definite crowd-pleaser!

Categories     Everyday Cooking     Special Collection Recipes     New

Time 2h

Yield 12

Number Of Ingredients 13

4 large eggs
4 large egg yolks
½ teaspoon kosher salt
1 ¼ cups white sugar
¼ cup light brown sugar
1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
½ teaspoon ground cinnamon
1 medium lemon, zested
3 cups whole milk
2 cups heavy cream
1 (1 pound) loaf sourdough bread
4 tablespoons melted butter, divided
1 pound fresh blueberries

Steps:

  • Vigorously whisk eggs, egg yolks, salt, white sugar, and brown sugar together in a large bowl until mixture turns light and frothy, about 1 minute. Add vanilla, cinnamon, lemon zest, milk, and cream; whisk to combine. Toss in bread slices and press down until they start to soften and are submerged. Let sit, pressing down occasionally with a spatula, until custard has been absorbed, about 20 minutes.
  • Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C). Brush 2 tablespoons melted butter in the bottom and sides of a 9x13-inch baking dish.
  • Grab a few intact bread slices from the top of the bowl if possible and set aside. Transfer 1/2 of the remaining soaked bread into the prepared baking dish. Don't worry if it's falling apart, it should be; if not, break it up into pieces. Add blueberries and spread with your fingers to press them down into the bread. Add remaining bread pieces in an even layer, then top with the reserved slices. Pour any remaining custard batter over top and brush with remaining melted butter.
  • Transfer bread pudding onto a baking sheet and place in the center of the preheated oven. Bake until puffed and golden brown, about 1 hour. Let sit for at least 20 to 30 minutes before serving.
  • Serve slightly warm or at room temperature.

Yield Makes 8 servings

Number Of Ingredients 9

8 cups of bread, cubed or torn into 1 1/2-inch pieces
4 cups mixed berries, such as blackberry, raspberry, strawberry, or blueberry (in any combination)
8 eggs
1 1/2 cups sugar
3 cups half and half
1 tablespoon vanilla
1 teaspoon cinnamon
1/4 teaspoon nutmeg
powdered sugar for dusting

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 375° F. Prepare eight individual soufflé cups (1-cup capacity) with cooking spray. In a large bowl, toss the bread cubes with the berries to distribute evenly. In another bowl, beat the eggs with a whisk or electric mixer on low speed until frothy. Add the sugar and beat until well blended. Add the half and half, vanilla, cinnamon, and nutmeg and continue beating on low speed until well blended. Fill soufflé cups with bread and berry mixture, mounding it a bit on top. Pour egg mixture over the bread and berries, filling evenly to the rim.
  • Place the soufflé cups in large ovenproof baking dish and pour boiling water into the dish until it reaches about halfway up the sides of the soufflé cups. Bake for 30 to 35 minutes, or until a cake tester or toothpick placed in the center of the puddings comes out clean. Remove from oven and allow to cool. These can be made one day ahead of the shower; simply refrigerate overnight and serve at room temperature. Just before serving, dust each top with powdered sugar.

BERRY BREAD PUDDING WITH BROWN SUGAR SAUCE



Berry Bread Pudding with Brown Sugar Sauce image

I created this recipe because I am always looking for a great bread pudding recipe. I sell cookware and love to cook, this is one of my favorite things to make.

Provided by JEANNIE DUCKWORTH

Categories     Desserts     Specialty Dessert Recipes     Bread Pudding Recipes

Time 2h

Yield 12

Number Of Ingredients 15

3 tablespoons butter
1 ½ (1 pound) loaves stale French bread, sliced
4 eggs
6 cups whole milk
2 cups white sugar
2 ½ tablespoons vanilla extract
2 ½ teaspoons ground cinnamon
1 cup chopped strawberries
1 cup blackberries
½ cup unsalted butter
1 cup packed brown sugar
⅓ cup water
¼ teaspoon pumpkin pie spice
⅛ teaspoon salt
1 egg, beaten

Steps:

  • Generously butter a 9x13 inch baking dish. Arrange the bread slices in the dish so they are packed in a little bit tight. In a medium bowl, whisk together the 4 eggs, milk, white sugar, vanilla, and cinnamon. Pour the liquid over the bread, and let it sit for an hour in the refrigerator. Press down the top with a spatula occasionally to help the bread absorb the liquid. After about 30 minutes, sprinkle the berries over the pudding, and press them down inside a bit to distribute.
  • Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Bake the bread pudding for 45 to 50 minutes in the preheated oven, or until the top is golden, and the middle is firm. While the pudding is baking, make the brown sugar sauce.
  • Melt the unsalted butter in a saucepan over medium heat. Stir in the brown sugar, water, pumpkin pie spice, and salt. Cook, stirring constantly for about 2 minutes. Remove from heat, and whisk in the egg. Return to the burner, and cook stirring constantly until thickened, about 1 minute. Serve hot over the hot bread pudding.

BLUEBERRY BREAKFAST BREAD PUDDING



Blueberry Breakfast Bread Pudding image

This breakfast bread pudding easily serves a large brunch gathering. Utilizing reduced fat dairy products makes this pudding better, in my opinion. This recipe originated with the North Carolina Egg Association.

Provided by D. Todd Miller

Categories     Breakfast

Time 1h15m

Yield 10-12 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 10

12 ounces French bread, cubed (about 6 cups)
1 (16 ounce) package frozen blueberries (3 cups if fresh)
12 ounces cream cheese, softened (I recommend reduced fat)
1 cup sour cream (I recommend reduced fat)
2/3 cup brown sugar, firmly packed
3/4 cup milk (I recommend reduced fat)
1/2 cup maple syrup
10 eggs, beaten
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1 teaspoon vanilla extract

Steps:

  • Coat 9x13-inch glass baking dish with cooking spray; place bread cubes inside. Sprinkle half of the blueberries on top.
  • In a large bowl, beat cream cheese until smooth. Add sour cream, brown sugar, milk, and maple syrup. Continue beating until smooth. Add eggs, cinnamon, and vanilla extract. Continue beating until mixture is blended.
  • Pour cream cheese-egg mixture over the bread and berries. Cover with foil and refrigerate overnight.
  • Remove from refrigerator about 30 minutes prior to baking. Bake, with foil on, in a preheated 350 degree F oven for 30 minutes.
  • Remove foil and continue baking until there are no signs of visible liquid egg, about 20-25 minutes longer.
  • Sprinkle remaining blueberries on top and serve with maple syrup if desired. Refrigerate leftovers.

Tips:

  • Use stale bread for a better texture. Fresh bread will absorb too much liquid and become mushy.
  • Don't overmix the batter. Just mix until the ingredients are combined. Overmixing will make the bread pudding tough.
  • Bake the bread pudding in a water bath. This will help prevent the pudding from drying out.
  • Let the bread pudding cool slightly before serving. This will help it set and make it easier to slice.
  • Serve the bread pudding with your favorite toppings, such as whipped cream, fruit, or sauce.

Conclusion:

Breakfast berry bread pudding is a delicious and easy-to-make dish that is perfect for a special occasion or a simple weekend breakfast. With its sweet and savory flavors, this bread pudding is sure to please everyone at the table. So next time you're looking for a new breakfast recipe, give this one a try!
