Provided by Food Network

Categories     dessert

Time 1h15m

Yield 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 13

3 cups stale French bread, cut in 3/4-inch cubes
2 cups milk
2 eggs
1 cup sugar
1 tablespoon vanilla extract
1/2 teaspoon cinnamon
1/4 teaspoon nutmeg
4 tablespoons butter, melted and slightly cooled
1/2 cup sultana raisins
2 egg yolks
1 stick butter, not margarine
1 cup sugar
1/3 cup bourbon whiskey, to taste

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.
  • Place stale bread in a bowl with milk and squeeze the bread with your hand until well saturated with milk.
  • With an electric mixer on high speed in a separate bowl, beat eggs with sugar until thick and pale. Stir in the vanilla, cinnamon, nutmeg, butter and raisins to the egg mixture. Add the soaked bread crumbs to the egg mixture and stir well. Let stand for 10 minutes. It is important to allow enough time for the bread to absorb the egg mixture or the bread crumbs will float to the top during baking, leaving a layer of custard on the bottom of the dish.
  • Transfer the mixture to a greased baking dish. Bake until firm, or until a knife inserted in the middle comes out clean, about 45 to 50 minutes. Let it slightly cool in the dish.
  • Meanwhile, near the end of the baking time, make the sauce. With an electric mixer, beat egg yolks until thick and pale. In a saucepan, melt the butter and sugar. Pour the butter and sugar mixture over the egg yolks, beating constantly with the mixer, until well thickened. Stir in bourbon by hand. Serve the pudding warm with vanilla ice cream if desired. Pass the hot bourbon sauce separately.

Tips:

  • Use a high-quality bread for the bread pudding, such as a French baguette or brioche. This will give the bread pudding a richer flavor and texture.
  • Stale bread is best for bread pudding because it will absorb the custard more easily.
  • If you don't have any stale bread, you can toast fresh bread in the oven to dry it out.
  • Use a variety of spices in the bread pudding, such as cinnamon, nutmeg, and cloves. This will give the bread pudding a more complex flavor.
  • Don't overmix the bread pudding batter. Overmixing will make the bread pudding tough.
  • Let the bread pudding rest for at least 30 minutes before baking. This will allow the bread to absorb the custard and develop a richer flavor.
  • Serve the bread pudding warm with a drizzle of cherry-bourbon sauce.

Conclusion:

Overnight eggnog bread pudding with cherry-bourbon sauce is a delicious and easy-to-make dessert that is perfect for any occasion. The bread pudding is moist and flavorful, and the cherry-bourbon sauce is the perfect finishing touch. This recipe is sure to be a hit with your family and friends.
