OLD FASHIONED BREAD PUDDING



Old Fashioned Bread Pudding image

Old fashioned bread pudding is made with just a few simple ingredients. This recipe is foolproof because of the handy oven temperature trick!

Provided by Katie Moseman

Categories     Dessert

Time 40m

Number Of Ingredients 11

2 tablespoons unsalted butter
6 cups bread chunks ((you can use stale or fresh but stale is more old fashioned))
2 cups milk
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1/2 cup granulated sugar
2 tablespoons granulated sugar
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon nutmeg
1/2 teaspoon cinnamon
4 eggs
1/2 cup raisins

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 400 F. Put the butter in a 9 inch cake pan or pie plate, and place the pan in the oven for a couple of minutes to melt the butter.
  • Remove the pan and swirl the butter evenly over the bottom of the pan.
  • Sprinkle 2 tablespoons of granulated sugar in the bottom of the pan. Set aside.
  • In a large mixing bowl, combine the milk, sugar, salt, nutmeg, cinnamon,vanilla, eggs. Whisk briefly until just combined.
  • Add the bread chunks to the mixing bowl. If you are using raisins, add them now as well.
  • Stir until well saturated with liquid. Use your fingers to massage the mixture and break up any large chunks.
  • Gently place the soaked bread chunks in the pan, on top of the butter/sugar mixture. Fill in any gaps in the bread and gently press down on the top to make it even. Pour any remaining liquid evenly over the top.
  • Place the pan in the oven. Bake for 15 minutes at 400 F, then turn the oven down to 300 F and bake another 15 minutes. The bread pudding is done when the temperature in the middle reaches 175 F, or when the center jiggles but does not slosh.
  • Remove from oven and cool on a rack for 30 minutes. Serve slightly warm, or let cool to room temperature, then refrigerate. Also tastes wonderful chilled.
