Time 5h

Yield 10

Number Of Ingredients 13

Ingredients

1 cup water
2 (3 inch) cinnamon sticks
15 whole cloves
1 teaspoon anise seed
2 tablespoons water
½ cup white sugar
1 (1 pound) loaf day-old bread
4 cups evaporated milk
4 eggs
1 ½ cups white sugar
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
¾ teaspoon salt
¼ cup butter, melted

Steps:

Bring 1 cup of water to a boil in a small saucepan over high heat. Add the cinnamon sticks, cloves, and anise seeds. Cover, and set aside to steep for 15 minutes.
Meanwhile, combine 2 tablespoons water with 1/2 cup sugar in a saucepan over medium-high heat. Stir occasionally to dissolve the sugar completely, but stop stirring once the mixture comes to a boil. Stay near the stove to monitor the color, swirling the pan gently to redistribute the caramel as the sugar begins to darken. Cook to about 310 degrees F (160 degrees C), or until the sugar turns light golden brown, then pour into a 9x5 inch loaf pan. Set aside to allow the caramel to harden.
Preheat an oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
Remove the crusts from the day-old bread, tear the bread into cubes, and place into a large mixing bowl. Strain the spice tea through a fine mesh sieve to remove the spices. Add to the bread along with the evaporated milk. Stir to evenly moisten, and set aside for 10 minutes. Whisk the eggs in a large mixing bowl along with 1 1/2 cups of sugar, the vanilla extract, salt, and melted butter. Stir in the moistened bread mixture until evenly mixed. Pour into the loaf pan over the caramel.
Line a roasting pan with a damp kitchen towel. Place the loaf pan on the towel, inside roasting pan, and place roasting pan on oven rack. Fill roasting pan with boiling water to reach halfway up the sides of the loaf pan.
Bake in the preheated oven until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean, about 1 hour and 15 minutes. Cool in the pan for about an hour, then refrigerate until cold, 2 hours more. When ready, invert the budin onto a serving plate. The caramel will have turned to a syrup and will cover the budin like a sauce.

Tips:

When selecting a pumpkin, look for one that is heavy for its size and has smooth, blemish-free skin.
To remove the pumpkin seeds and pulp, cut the pumpkin in half lengthwise and scoop out the seeds and pulp with a spoon.
If you don't have pumpkin pie spice, you can make your own by combining 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon, 1/2 teaspoon ground ginger, 1/2 teaspoon ground nutmeg, and 1/4 teaspoon ground cloves.
For a richer flavor, use dark brown sugar instead of granulated sugar.
If you don't have a steamer basket, you can place the pumpkin pudding in a heatproof bowl set over a pot of simmering water.
To test if the pumpkin pudding is done, insert a toothpick into the center. If the toothpick comes out clean, the pudding is done.

Conclusion:

Pumpkin pudding is a delicious and easy-to-make dessert that is perfect for fall. It can be served warm or cold, and it is also a great way to use up leftover pumpkin. With its smooth and creamy texture and rich pumpkin flavor, this pudding is sure to be a hit with your family and friends. So next time you're looking for a sweet treat, give pumpkin pudding a try!
