DRUNKEN BRANDY-PEACH BREAD PUDDING
Steps:
- TO MAKE THE BREAD PUDDING: Preheat the oven to 350°F. Grease a 9 by 13-inch baking pan with butter or cooking spray. Mix the granulated sugar, half-and-half, and cinnamon in a large saucepan over medium heat. Stir occasionally until the sugar dissolves. (No need to boil the mixture.) Remove the saucepan from the heat.
- Whisk the 3 eggs in a bowl until the whites and yolks are combined. Pour about 1/4 cup of the hot cream mixture into the eggs, whisking as you pour. (This tempers the eggs, which keeps them from curdling when they are mixed into the hot cream mixture.) Pour the tempered egg mixture into the cream mixture left in the saucepan and whisk until the sauce is smooth.
- Gently combine the bread cubes and peaches in a large bowl. Spoon into the prepared pan. Pour the sauce over the peach-bread mixture and let sit for about 30 minutes to let the sauce soak into the bread. Sprinkle the pecans on top.
- Bake until the pudding is firm and lightly browned on top, about 1 hour. Cut into squares and serve warm or at room temperature with warm Peach Brandy Sauce.
- TO MAKE THE PEACH BRANDY SAUCE: Melt the butter and brown sugar together in a saucepan set over medium heat. Remove the mixture from the heat. In a bowl, whisk the 1 egg with a fork. Temper the egg by adding about 2 tablespoons of the butter-sugar mixture to the egg and whisk constantly until the egg is incorporated. Pour the tempered egg mixture into the saucepan with the remaining sugar-butter mixture and whisk until the sauce is smooth. Add the salt and whisk in the brandy. Keep the sauce warm until ready to serve. Pour it over the bread putting as soon as it comes out of the oven.
- do it early
- The bread pudding can be made up to 12 hours in advance, covered, and refrigerated. Warm in a 300°F oven. The sauce can be made up to 48 hours in advance and refrigerated until ready to use. Reheat it in a heavy saucepan set over low heat until it is warm but not hot; or microwave it on medium power in a microwave-safe container until warm, about 1 to 2 minutes.
Tips for Making Peach Bread Pudding:
- Use fresh, ripe peaches for the best flavor. If fresh peaches are not available, frozen or canned peaches can be substituted.
- If using frozen peaches, thaw them completely before using. Canned peaches should be drained well before using.
- Use a good quality bread for the pudding. A firm, slightly stale bread will work best.
- Cut the bread into 1-inch cubes. This will help it absorb the custard evenly.
- Make sure the custard is fully cooked before baking the pudding. The custard should be thick enough to coat the back of a spoon.
- Bake the pudding in a preheated oven. This will help ensure that the pudding cooks evenly.
- Serve the pudding warm or at room temperature. It can be topped with whipped cream, ice cream, or fresh fruit.
Conclusion:
Peach bread pudding is a delicious and easy-to-make dessert. It is a great way to use up leftover bread and fresh peaches. The pudding is moist and flavorful, with a crispy top and a creamy custard filling. It is perfect for a special occasion or a simple weeknight dessert.
