CREAMY MAPLE BREAD PUDDING



Creamy Maple Bread Pudding image

This old-fashioned bread pudding,with the essence of maple, is the perfect end to a simple supper. Just about any kind of bread will do, but brioche, panettone, croissants or good white bread, along with anything nutty and/or grainy, is especially good.

Provided by Annacia

Categories     Dessert

Time 1h10m

Yield 10 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 11

4 -4 1/2 cups bread, cubed
4 large eggs
1 1/4 cups milk
1 cup heavy cream
1/2 cup maple syrup (grade B preferred)
1/4 cup brown sugar
1 teaspoon maple extract (or vanilla extract)
1/2 teaspoon nutmeg
1/4 teaspoon salt
2 tablespoons decorator sugar (optional)
1/4 cup diced pecans (optional) or 1/4 cup walnuts (optional)

Steps:

  • Preheat your oven to 350°F and grease a 1 1/2-quart casserole or baking dish.
  • Place the bread cubes into the prepared pan. Whisk the eggs, milk, cream, syrup, sugar, flavoring, nutmeg, and salt together. Pour over the bread cubes and let sit for 15 minutes to absorb the liquid. Press the cubes down into the liquid if the edges are dry.
  • Bake the pudding for 35 minutes. Remove from the oven and sprinkle with the nuts and sugar. Return to the oven and bake for an additional 15 to 20 minutes, until the pudding has puffed up and is light brown around the edges. Remove from the oven and let stand for a few minutes-the pudding will sink as it sits; that's OK. Serve immediately, or reheat before serving.

Categories     Food & Cooking     Dessert & Treats Recipes     Puddings & Custards     Bread Pudding Recipes

Time 1h35m

Number Of Ingredients 10

7 slices (1 inch thick) week-old Tartine Bakery's Country Bread, crusts trimmed
Unsalted butter, for pan
8 large eggs
3/4 cup sugar
2 cups creme fraiche
2 cups whole milk
1 1/2 teaspoons pure vanilla extract
Coarse salt
1 1/2 cups fresh or thawed frozen cranberries (about 5 ounces)
2/3 cup pure maple syrup

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Toast bread on a baking sheet until golden, 5 to 7 minutes.
  • Butter a 5-by-9-inch loaf pan. Whisk together eggs and sugar in a medium bowl. Whisk creme fraiche in another bowl, adding milk gradually to prevent lumps; whisk into egg mixture. Whisk in vanilla and 1/2 teaspoon salt. Soak each slice of bread in custard. Stand slices up next to one another in pan.
  • Strain half the custard mixture over bread in pan. Let stand for 10 minutes, allowing custard to soak into bread. Slowly add remaining custard to cover (you may have some custard left over).
  • Place pan on a baking sheet. Bake until pudding is set and a knife inserted into the center comes out clean, about 1 hour and 15 minutes. If top browns too quickly before pudding is set, cover with foil, and continue baking. Let stand for 10 minutes.
  • Meanwhile, bring cranberries and maple syrup to a gentle simmer in a heavy saucepan over medium heat. Simmer until cranberries just begin to soften but have not popped, about 5 minutes. Serve pudding with cranberry topping.

Provided by Donna Elick

Categories     Breakfast

Time 40m

Number Of Ingredients 10

8-12 stale glazed cake donuts
4 large eggs
1 teaspoon cinnamon
3/4 teaspoon salt (divided)
2 cups half-and-half
7 tablespoons unsalted butter (melted)
6 tablespoons maple syrup
6 ounces fresh or frozen cranberries
2 tablespoons International Delight French Vanilla Creamer
3/4 cup powdered sugar

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350°F. Butter a deep 9" pie pan (or 9x9 baking pan).
  • Chop donuts into bite size pieces. You want enough donuts so that your pie plate is heaping, they will be pressed down later. Place them in the buttered baking dish. Set aside.
  • Whisk the eggs in a large bowl and add cinnamon and 1/2 teaspoon salt. Whisk to combine. Add half-and-half, 4 tablespoons melted butter, 4 tablespoons maple syrup. Whisk until well combined.Pour egg mixture over the donuts. Toss donuts to coat and press down into the egg mixture if necessary so they can absorb the mixture. Rest for 15 minutes. Add cranberries and toss to combine. Gently press the donuts into the pan so they will stick together, not so much that you flatten them.
  • Cover with foil and bake for 30 minutes. Remove foil and bake for 15-20 additional minutes, until it is set.
  • Meanwhile, add powdered sugar to a medium bowl. Add remaining 3 tablespoons butter, 2 tablespoons maple syrup, creamer and remaining 1/4 teaspoon salt. Whisk to combine.
  • Pour or drizzle frosting over warm bread pudding.
  • Serve and enjoy!

CREAMY CRANBERRY BREAD PUDDING



Creamy Cranberry Bread Pudding image

Provided by Food Network

Categories     dessert

Yield 20 servings

Number Of Ingredients 10

2 (2 pound) loaves Brioche challah
6 cups half-and-half
6 cups heavy cream
1/4 teaspoon salt
2 vanilla beans, split lengthwise
18 eggs
3 cups granulated sugar
3 cups cranberries
1/2 cup orange marmalade
Confectioners' sugar

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 350 degrees. Cut the crusts off the bread and cut into 1-inch cubes. You should have about 10 1/2 cups of cubes. Arrange on a baking sheet and toast in the oven until light golden brown, about 10 minutes. Watch carefully to make sure they do not brown too much; set aside to cool. Leave the oven on. In a saucepan, heat the half-and-half, cream, salt, and vanilla bean over medium heat, stirring occasionally to make sure the mixture doesn't burn or stick to the bottom of the pan. When the cream mixture reaches a fast simmer (do not let it boil), turn off the heat. Set aside to infuse 10 to 15 minutes. In a large mixing bowl, whisk the eggs and sugar together. Whisking constantly, gradually add the hot cream mixture. Strain into a large bowl to smooth the mixture and remove the vanilla bean. Add the bread cubes, toss well, and let soak until absorbed. Fold the mixture occasionally to ensure even soaking. In a food processor pulse the berries to roughly chop them. Fold them into the soaked bread cubes carefully. Divide half the bread mixture among 20 ramekins, custard cups, or dessert cups, reserving the rest, filling them half way. Place a teaspoon of orange marmalade in each ramekin then top off with the remaining soaked bread mixture. Arrange the puddings in a hot water bath. Bake until set and golden brown on top, about 30 minutes for individual puddings. Serve warm or chilled, dusted with confectioners' sugar.

CRANBERRY, MAPLE & PECAN PUDDING



Cranberry, maple & pecan pudding image

Dairy-free, wheat-free and gluten-free - this Christmas pudding is moist and has a real zing. A less rich, more refreshing way to round off Christmas dinner

Provided by Good Food team

Categories     Dessert, Dinner

Time 3h30m

Number Of Ingredients 15

100g each semi-dried prunes and date , stoned and chopped
100g each raisins and sultanas
100g pack dried cranberry
170g gluten-free flour
1 tsp gluten-free baking powder
100g pack pecan , roughly chopped
2 tsp mixed spice
grated zest and juice of 2 oranges
100g dark muscovado sugar
5 tbsp maple syrup
2 eggs , beaten
100ml sunflower oil
oil , for greasing
100g fresh cranberry
5 tbsp maple syrup

Steps:

  • Put all the ingredients for the pudding into a big bowl and stir together until well mixed. Don't be put off by the consistency of the mixture - it is quite wet. Lightly oil a 1.5 litre pudding basin. Tip the mixture into this and press down. Make a cover for the pudding basin using a double layer each of oiled greaseproof paper and aluminium foil. Make a pleat in the middle of these sheets to allow for expansion of the pudding. Press it over the top of the pudding basin and secure it well with a double piece of string. Use a little extra string to make a handle for ease of lifting in and out of the boiling water.
  • Cook the pudding in a large pan with a well-fitting lid. There should be enough boiling water to come two-thirds up the sides of the basin at all times - so keep an eye on it. Cook the pudding for 3 hrs.
  • To make the topping, cook the cranberries in the maple syrup until they burst open and become syrupy. Once the pudding is cooked, remove the cover and carefully tip it onto a large serving plate. Spoon the hot cranberry and maple syrup over the top and serve straight away.
