I have made bread pudding many times and it was always well received..When my children had friends over and I didn't know what to make the old reliable bread pudding would come again to life..Lots of times I added fruit to it. Thinly sliced apples for sure was a favorite and raisins also can be added ..Today I combined my recipe with another and added some pecan pieces to put on top ..Here is the recipe:
3 cups bread cubes
1/2 to 1 cup sugar( depends on how sweet you want it to be.)
4 eggs
2 cups milk(I used skim)( sometimes I use a little half and half mixed with the skim milk)
2 tablespoons butter melted
2 tsp. pure vanilla
4/16/16
Whisk milk, eggs, sugar, vanilla. Add melted butter. To blend together better, I put in electric mixer and mixed on low speed. Pour over bread cubes and set for 10 minutes so bread can soak up some of the milk.
Slightly grease a baking dish with butter.(I used oval dish)but you can use 13 x9 inch baking dish. Sprinkle a little cinnamon on top.. Bake 350 until set, about 35 to 40 minutes..Check with knife in center..If it comes out clean it is ready to serve. Serve warm.
Note: I topped mine with pecan mixture before putting in oven..
1/4 cup butter melted, 1/2 brown sugar and 1/2 cup pecan pieces..Crumble and top bread pudding and bake. This topping makes for a better brunch than breakfast..because it is a little rich in taste.
Taste update: It was a huge success!!!!!!!!!!!!
