GINGERBREAD BREAD PUDDING

This delicious bread pudding was inspired by canarygirl, Jane_in_RI, and *Denise*. I had a loaf of gingerbread in the freezer (#44268, by Sue L) and wanted to do something different. So we came up with this. And it is heavenly! A great change from everyday bread pudding, and wonderful for the cooler days of fall and winter.

Time 50m

Yield 6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 7

5 -6 cups of cubed gingerbread
1 cup half-and-half
2 cups milk
6 eggs
1/2 cup sugar
1 teaspoon vanilla
1/4 cup raisins, plumped in hot water

Steps:

  • Heat oven to 350°, grease an 8" square pan.
  • I used a loaf size gingerbread for this, sliced and placed on a cookie sheet-toast in the oven for 5 or so minutes.
  • Remove from oven, and cut into cubes.
  • Place the cubes in the greased baking dish, they should just about fill the pan.
  • Whisk the half and half, milk, eggs, sugar and vanilla in a bowl, and pour over the gingerbread.
  • Let this sit for about 5 minutes.
  • Cover the raisins with water and microwave for about one minute--drain off the water, then sprinkle them over the top of the pudding.
  • Bake at 350° for 40-45 minutes.
  • A knife inserted in the center will still look a bit wet, but mostly clean.
  • Serve warm, with a bit of cream poured over, or whipped cream.

Time 50m

Yield 10 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 11

1 lb gingerbread cake, day-old, cut into 1/4-inch slices
3/4 cup dried cranberries
4 large eggs
1 1/2 cups whole milk
1/2 cup heavy cream
1/2 cup granulated sugar
1/4 cup dark brown sugar, packed
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1/2 teaspoon ground ginger
1 pinch salt
1 teaspoon vanilla extract

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees F & butter a 1 1/2 quart baking dish.
  • Lay the gingerbread slices, overlapping, in the prepared dish, then sprinkle the dried cranberries over the slices.
  • In a large bowl, whisk together the eggs, milk, heavy cream, granulated sugar, brown sugar, cinnamon, ginger, salt & vanilla extract, then pour this mixture over the gingerbread, gently pressing the pieces of cake into the custard, before setting the baking dish aside for 10 minutes.
  • Set the bread pudding on a baking sheet & bake for 30 to 35 minutes or until it is puffed & golden.
  • It can be served hot, at room temperature or cold.

Tips:

  • Use fresh, high-quality ingredients: This will make a big difference in the flavor of your bread pudding.
  • Don't overmix the batter: Overmixing can make the bread pudding tough.
  • Bake the bread pudding until it is set in the center: A toothpick inserted into the center should come out clean.
  • Let the bread pudding cool slightly before serving: This will help it to set and make it easier to slice.
  • Serve the bread pudding with your favorite toppings: Some popular choices include whipped cream, ice cream, and fresh fruit.
