Yield Makes 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 9

4 large eggs
2 cups plus 2 tablespoons (or more) half and half
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1 cup chopped pecans
1/2 cup (packed) golden brown sugar
2 1/2 teaspoons ground cinnamon
Butter, room temperature
8 (1-inch-thick) slices from day-old large loaf of challah, crusts removed
1 cup powdered sugar

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350°F. Whisk eggs, 2 cups half and half, and vanilla in medium bowl to blend; set aside. Stir pecans, brown sugar, and cinnamon in small bowl to blend; set aside. Butter bread on both sides. Place 2 slices bread in bottom of 9x5x3-inch loaf pan, cutting additional bread pieces to fit snugly. Sprinkle bread with 1/3 of pecan mixture. Repeat twice with remaining bread and pecan mixture (bread will reach top of pan). Press on bread to compact. Pour egg mixture over bread by 1/2 cupfuls, saturating bread.
  • Place loaf pan in center of 13x9-inch baking pan; set in oven. Pour enough hot water into baking pan to come halfway up sides of loaf pan. Bake until pudding is set, about 45 minutes. Remove pan from water; cool slightly. Turn loaf out.
  • Whisk powdered sugar and 2 tablespoons half and half in medium bowl to blend, adding more half and half if necessary to thin glaze. Slice warm bread pudding thickly and transfer to plates. Drizzle bread pudding slices with powdered sugar glaze and serve.

STICKY BUNS (BREAD MACHINE)



Sticky Buns (Bread Machine) image

Use your bread machine after dinner to make these sticky buns. Then refrigerate overnight, and pop them into the oven in the morning. What a way to start your day! NOTE: If you prefer to bake them right away, let the buns rise at room temperature, lightly covered with plastic wrap, about 45 minutes or until they are puffy and the tops are about as high as the pan itself.

Categories     Breads

Time 1h

Yield 10 buns, 10 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 14

1 1/4 cups milk
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
3 tablespoons butter
3 cups all-purpose flour
3 tablespoons sugar
1 1/4 teaspoons salt
2 teaspoons instant yeast
3/4 cup brown sugar
1 tablespoon cinnamon
6 tablespoons butter
1/3 cup butter
1 cup brown sugar
1/4 cup light corn syrup
1 cup pecans, chopped

Steps:

  • Place the flour, white sugar, salt, yeast, milk, vanilla, and 3 tablespoons of butter into your bread machine as directed in your user's manual. Program it for the "Dough" cycle.
  • While the dough is mixing, prepare the filling by mixing the 3/4 cup brown sugar and cinnamon together. Let the 6 tablespoons of butter come to room temperature.
  • Grease the bottom and sides of a 13"x9" baking pan.
  • When the dough cycle is nearly finished, make the caramel topping by combining the 1/3 cup butter, 1 cup brown sugar, and corn syrup in a small pan over moderate heat. Heat and stir just until the syrup is dissolved, then pour it into the baking pan and spread it out. Sprinkle the chopped pecans over the caramel.
  • When the dough cycle ends, remove the dough and place on a lightly floured surface. Roll it out to make a 12" by 15" rectangle.
  • Spread the softened butter across the dough, leaving a 1-inch border on all sides. Sprinkle the cinnamon mixture over the butter.
  • Roll up the dough like a jelly roll, lengthwise. Pinch the seam closed.
  • Cut the dough into 1 1/2" sections and place them in the baking pan, close together, with the spiral cut down.
  • Cover the buns tightly with plastic wrap and refrigerate overnight.
  • In the morning, take the pan out of the refrigreator while you preheat the oven to 350 degrees.
  • After the dough has been out of the refrigerator about 20-30 minutes, bake at 350 degrees for about 30-35 minutes, or until buns are nicely browned on top.
  • Remove from the oven, then place a wire rack on top the pan. Place another baking sheet or pan over that. While firmly holding these three together, flip the buns over, being careful not to let the hot caramel drip on you.
  • Let the buns cool 20-30 minutes before serving.

STICKY BUN MONKEY BREAD



Sticky Bun Monkey Bread image

Monkey bread is a hybrid of several classic treats: sticky buns, cinnamon rolls and a Hungarian coffee cake called aranygaluska. Since it bakes up high in a Bundt pan, the presentation is pretty spectacular. You can slice it, but it's more fun to just put it on the table, sit down and join your brunch guests in pulling off one little dough ball after another.

Time 2h

Yield 8 to 12 servings

Number Of Ingredients 16

2 1/4 teaspoons/7 grams active dry yeast (1 package)
1 1/2 cups lukewarm milk (about 105 degrees, or just warm to the touch)
1/3 cup/67 grams granulated sugar
1 tablespoon/15 grams kosher salt
3 tablespoons/43 grams unsalted butter, melted, more for greasing bowl
2 eggs, at room temperature
5 to 6 cups/640 grams to 768 grams all-purpose flour
1 cup/227 grams unsalted butter (2 sticks)
2 cups/440 grams packed dark brown sugar
1/2 cup heavy cream, more to taste
Salt (optional)
1/2 cup/114 grams unsalted butter (1 stick), melted and cooled to room temperature
1 1/4 cups/275 grams light brown sugar or maple sugar, or a combination of dark brown sugar and white sugar
2 tablespoons ground cinnamon
1/4 teaspoon kosher salt
About 3/4 cup/80 grams chopped toasted pecans or walnuts, more for garnish (optional)

Steps:

  • In the bowl of a mixer, dissolve yeast in 1/4 cup of the warm milk. Add the remaining warm milk, sugar, salt, butter and eggs.
  • Add 5 cups flour and mix with paddle attachment until smooth, about 2 minutes. Switch to hook attachment and knead on low speed, adding flour if necessary until dough is stiff and slightly tacky, 10 minutes.
  • Grease a large bowl with butter and turn dough out into the bowl. Flip over dough so greased side is up, cover loosely with a kitchen towel and set in a warm, draft-free spot until doubled in size, about 1 1/2 to 2 hours.
  • Make the sauce: In a saucepan, melt butter over medium heat. Add sugar and stir constantly until simmering and the butter has melted. Pour in cream (it will bubble up) and cook until thickened, 3 to 5 minutes. Taste and add cream and pinches of salt to taste. Turn off heat and set aside.
  • Brush a medium or large Bundt pan, preferably nonstick, with some of the melted butter. Combine the sugar, cinnamon and salt in a bowl and mix well. Rewarm the caramel sauce over low heat.
  • Once dough has doubled in size, turn it onto floured surface and knead for 3 minutes. Cut or pull off small pieces, each weighing about 1/2 ounce/15 grams, and roll them gently into balls. Set aside on a baking sheet.
  • To assemble, dip about half of the balls in melted butter, roll in sugar mixture, and fit them snugly into the pan, occasionally adding a sprinkle of pecans. Pour about a quarter of the sauce over the sugared dough balls. Repeat with remaining dough balls, pecans and another quarter of the sauce. Reserve the remaining sauce.
  • Cover and let rise at room temperature for 30 minutes to 1 hour, until puffy. (The monkey bread can be made up to this point up to 24 hours in advance and refrigerated overnight.)
  • Heat oven to 375 degrees. Bake for 30 to 35 minutes, until golden and bubbling around the edges. Let cool on a rack for 5 to 10 minutes, then invert onto a platter.
  • Meanwhile, reheat the remaining caramel sauce and drizzle or spoon it over the top of the monkey bread until it runs down the sides. (Any remaining sauce can be passed at the table, for dipping.) Serve warm or at room temperature, with hot coffee or tea and plenty of napkins.
