CRANBERRY BREAD PUDDING



Cranberry Bread Pudding image

This down-home dessert takes on a touch of elegance when I serve it warm and drizzled with a thin orange custard sauce. It's so pretty that I often make it for dinner guests using either fresh or frozen cranberries. -Margery Richmond, Fort Collins, Colorado

Categories     dessert

Time 1h55m

Yield 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 10

1/2 large bakery challah or brioche (about 8 ounces bread)
2 cups half-and-half
2 cups heavy cream
1 pinch salt
1 vanilla bean, split lengthwise
6 eggs
1 cup sugar
1/2 cup orange juice
1 cup dried cranberries
Confectioners' sugar

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Cut the crusts off the bread and cut into 1/2-inch cubes. You should have about 3 1/2 cups of cubes. Arrange on a baking sheet and toast in the oven until light golden brown, about 10 minutes. Watch carefully to make sure they do not brown too much; set aside to cool. Leave the oven on.
  • In a saucepan, heat the half-and-half, cream, salt, and vanilla bean over medium heat, stirring occasionally to make sure the mixture doesn't burn or stick to the bottom of the pan. When the cream mixture reaches a fast simmer (do not let it boil), turn off the heat. Set aside to infuse 10 to 15 minutes.
  • In a large mixing bowl, whisk the eggs and sugar together. Whisking constantly, gradually add the hot cream mixture. Strain into a large bowl to smooth the mixture and remove the vanilla bean. Add the bread cubes, toss well and let soak until absorbed. Fold the mixture occasionally to ensure even soaking.
  • In a small saucepan, heat the orange juice to a simmer. Add the cranberries and simmer until plumped and softened, about 5 minutes. Drain and reserve 1/4 cup for garnish.
  • Fold in remaining 3/4 cup of cranberries into bread pudding mixture. Divide the mixture among 6 ramekins, custard cups, or dessert cups, (or use a deep baking dish). Divide the soaked bread among the dishes, then pour any remaining custard over the bread. Dot with remaining cranberries.
  • Arrange the puddings in a hot water bath. Bake until set and golden brown on top, about 30 minutes for individual puddings and 40 to 45 minutes for 1 large pudding. Serve warm or chilled, dusted with confectioners' sugar.

2 (2 pound) loaves Brioche challah
6 cups half-and-half
6 cups heavy cream
1/4 teaspoon salt
2 vanilla beans, split lengthwise
18 eggs
3 cups granulated sugar
3 cups cranberries
1/2 cup orange marmalade
Confectioners' sugar

  • Preheat the oven to 350 degrees. Cut the crusts off the bread and cut into 1-inch cubes. You should have about 10 1/2 cups of cubes. Arrange on a baking sheet and toast in the oven until light golden brown, about 10 minutes. Watch carefully to make sure they do not brown too much; set aside to cool. Leave the oven on. In a saucepan, heat the half-and-half, cream, salt, and vanilla bean over medium heat, stirring occasionally to make sure the mixture doesn't burn or stick to the bottom of the pan. When the cream mixture reaches a fast simmer (do not let it boil), turn off the heat. Set aside to infuse 10 to 15 minutes. In a large mixing bowl, whisk the eggs and sugar together. Whisking constantly, gradually add the hot cream mixture. Strain into a large bowl to smooth the mixture and remove the vanilla bean. Add the bread cubes, toss well, and let soak until absorbed. Fold the mixture occasionally to ensure even soaking. In a food processor pulse the berries to roughly chop them. Fold them into the soaked bread cubes carefully. Divide half the bread mixture among 20 ramekins, custard cups, or dessert cups, reserving the rest, filling them half way. Place a teaspoon of orange marmalade in each ramekin then top off with the remaining soaked bread mixture. Arrange the puddings in a hot water bath.

CREAMY MAPLE BREAD PUDDING



Creamy Maple Bread Pudding image

This old-fashioned bread pudding,with the essence of maple, is the perfect end to a simple supper. Just about any kind of bread will do, but brioche, panettone, croissants or good white bread, along with anything nutty and/or grainy, is especially good.

Categories     Dessert

Time 1h10m

Yield 10 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 11

4 -4 1/2 cups bread, cubed
4 large eggs
1 1/4 cups milk
1 cup heavy cream
1/2 cup maple syrup (grade B preferred)
1/4 cup brown sugar
1 teaspoon maple extract (or vanilla extract)
1/2 teaspoon nutmeg
1/4 teaspoon salt
2 tablespoons decorator sugar (optional)
1/4 cup diced pecans (optional) or 1/4 cup walnuts (optional)

Steps:

  • Preheat your oven to 350°F and grease a 1 1/2-quart casserole or baking dish.
  • Place the bread cubes into the prepared pan. Whisk the eggs, milk, cream, syrup, sugar, flavoring, nutmeg, and salt together. Pour over the bread cubes and let sit for 15 minutes to absorb the liquid. Press the cubes down into the liquid if the edges are dry.
  • Bake the pudding for 35 minutes. Remove from the oven and sprinkle with the nuts and sugar. Return to the oven and bake for an additional 15 to 20 minutes, until the pudding has puffed up and is light brown around the edges. Remove from the oven and let stand for a few minutes-the pudding will sink as it sits; that's OK. Serve immediately, or reheat before serving.
