Bread Pudding
A sweet and delicious bread pudding that's a treat for breakfast or brunch.
Equipment
- 1 9x13 baking dish
- 1 mixing bowl
- 1 whisk
- measuring cups
- measuring spoons
- large knife
Ingredients
- 1 loaf bread, cubed old, stale bread works best
- 4 tbsp unsalted butter melted
- 9 large eggs
- 4 c milk (whole milk is best)
- 1½ c sugar
- 2 tsp vanilla
- 2 tsp cinnamon
- ¼ tsp nutmeg
- 1 c raisins (optional)
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350℉.
- Grease a 9x13 baking dish and slice bread into 1" cubes.
- In a mixing bowl, whisk together eggs, milk, sugar, vanilla, cinnamon, and nutmeg.
- Place half the bread in the baking dish, add half the raisins, then top with the remaining bread and raisins. Drizzle melted butter over the top.
- Pour egg mixture over the top. Use a fork to press the bread down to soak up the mixture.
- Bake for 45-55 minutes or until a knife inserted in the center comes out clean.
- Allow to cool for 10 minutes. Enjoy!
Notes
This can be made beforehand and baked later. Allowing more time for the bread to absorb the egg mixture creates a much more uniform pudding.
If making ahead of time, place in a cold oven and heat, otherwise you risk shocking and breaking the baking dish during cooking.
