MOM'S THANKSGIVING BREAD PUDDING

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Butter a 2-quart casserole or baking dish.
• Spread bread slices with butter, then use a sharp knife to cut each slice into 4 squares.
• Arrange 1/2 of the bread squares in the bottom of the prepared casserole. Sprinkle with raisins and 1/2 of the cinnamon. Cover with remaining bread and cinnamon.
• Heat milk in a medium saucepan over medium heat just until a film forms over the top, 3 to 4 minutes. Remove from the heat and add sugar; stir until dissolved.
• Pour some of the hot milk into the beaten eggs, whisking quickly to avoid scrambling the eggs. Pour the mixture back into the saucepan and whisk until smooth and thoroughly combined. Stir in vanilla and pour mixture over the bread.
• Set the casserole in a pan and fill with 1 inch hot water. Bake in the preheated oven until a knife inserted in the center comes out clean, 40 to 50 minutes. Serve warm.

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Grease a 13 by 9 by 2-inch pan. Mix together granulated sugar, eggs, and milk in a bowl; add vanilla. Pour over cubed bread and let sit for 10 minutes.

BREAD PUDDING THANKSGIVING

Steps:

• Grease 9x9 pan with butter and preheat oven to 350 f.
• Mix in a mixer or beat thoroughly : milk, cream, eggs, sugar, vanilla, salt to form thin custard.
• Add and mix by hand the remaining ingredients (cube or tear the bread first) into the liquid custard.
• (I always eyeball this part, mixing the wet and dry -- usually I add the dry ingredients to a bowl, then pour the liquid until it covers a little more than half with liquid- enough that if you press down, the top parts get moist but not wet.).
• Press lightly to encourage bread to absorb custard. Let sit in refrigerator for 1/2 hour to 6 hours, depending on how stale the bread is.
• Pour into lightly buttered/greased 9x9 pan.
• Bake in oven for 1/2 - 1 hour or until golden brown on top but of bread pudding consistency inside.
