ARTICHOKE-HEART, SPINACH, AND MOZZARELLA BREAD PUDDING
Steps:
- 1. Heat the oven to 350°. Butter an 8-by-12-inch baking dish or a 1 1/2-quart gratin dish. In a large bowl, combine the spinach, artichoke hearts, scallions, bread cubes, and half the mozzarella. Spread this mixture in the bottom of the prepared baking dish. Top with the remaining mozzarella. 2. In a medium bowl, whisk together the eggs, milk, Parmesan, salt, and pepper. Pour over the vegetables and bread and press the bread into the liquid, making sure that it's well moistened. 3. Bake the bread pudding for 20 minutes. Raise the oven temperature to 400° and bake until the pudding is puffed and browned, 15 to 20 minutes longer.
Tips:
- Choose fresh, high-quality ingredients for the best flavor and texture.
- Don't overcook the spinach or artichokes, as they will become mushy.
- Use a good quality bread that is slightly stale, as this will help the bread pudding hold its shape.
- Be careful not to overmix the batter, as this can make the bread pudding tough.
- Bake the bread pudding in a water bath to prevent it from drying out.
- Let the bread pudding cool slightly before serving, as this will allow it to set and firm up.
