HERB AND APPLE STUFFING BREAD PUDDING image

Yield 16 people

Number Of Ingredients 15

8 cup(s) bread, such as country boule, crusts removed, and cut into 3/4-inch cubes
1/4 cup(s) (1/2 stick) unsalted butter
3 ounce(s) pancetta, cut into 1/2-inch cubes
2 cup(s) (about 1 large) chopped onion
1 1/2 cup(s) (about 3 large stalks) chopped celery
1 Granny Smith apple, peeled, cored, and chopped
1/2 cup(s) medium or dry sherry
2 tablespoon(s) finely chopped fresh rosemary leaves
Kosher salt
Pepper
1/2 cup(s) chopped fresh parsley leaves
5 extra-large eggs
2 cup(s) heavy cream
1 cup(s) chicken stock or broth
2 cup(s) (8 ounces) freshly grated Gruyère cheese

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Arrange bread in single layer on 18-inch by 12-inch jelly-roll pan. Bake 20 minutes or until lightly browned; set aside. While bread toasts, in 12-inch skillet, heat butter on medium-low. Add pancetta; increase heat to medium and cook 5 minutes or until browned, stirring occasionally. Add onion, celery, and apple; cook 8 to 10 minutes or until tender, stirring occasionally. Stir in sherry, rosemary, 4 teaspoons salt, and 1 1/2 teaspoons freshly ground black pepper. Cook 5 minutes or until most of the liquid has evaporated. Remove from heat; stir in parsley. Meanwhile, in very large bowl, beat eggs, cream, chicken stock, and 1 1/2 cups Gruyère. Add bread, then vegetable mixture, stirring until well combined. Let stand 30 minutes to allow bread to soak. Stir mixture well; transfer to 2 1/2- to 3-quart (13-inch by 9-inch by 2-nch) gratin dish. Sprinkle with remaining Gruyère. (To make ahead, assemble bread pudding, cover with plastic wrap, and refrigerate up to 1 day before baking.) Bake 45 to 50 minutes or until top is browned and custard is set (when knife inserted in center comes out clean). Serve hot or warm.

The bread pudding was a little too bland for my taste. I might try adding more spices next time.

I thought the bread pudding was a little too dense. I might try using a different type of bread next time.

The bread pudding was a little too sweet for my taste. I think I would reduce the amount of sugar next time.
