This scrumptious-looking recipe just cries out "Autumn!" It's from Fresh from the Vegetarian Slow Cooker by Robin Robertson. She says it's "great for a crowd at holiday gatherings when you want the seasonal taste of pumpkin without the fuss of a pie." I can't wait to try it!

Time 4h15m

Yield 6-8 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 11

4 cups cubed white bread
3 cups vanilla-flavored soymilk (or milk for non-vegans)
1 (16 ounce) can solid-pack pumpkin
3/4 cup firmly packed light brown sugar (or a natural sweetener)
1/4 cup Bourbon
1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
1 1/2 teaspoons ground cinnamon
1/2 teaspoon ground ginger
1/4 teaspoon ground allspice
1/4 teaspoon ground nutmeg
1/4 teaspoon salt

Steps:

  • Press half the bread cubes into the bottom of a lightly oiled 3 1/2- to 4-quart slow cooker.
  • In a medium-size saucepan, heat the milk until hot, but do not let it come to a boil. Remove the pan from the heat and set aside.
  • In a large mixing bowl, combine the pumpkin, brown sugar, bourbon, vanilla, spices, and salt. Blend well, then slowly add the hot milk, stirring constantly.
  • Carefully pour half the pumpkin mixture over the bread and push the bread pieces down beneath the mixture to moisten them. Repeat with remaining bread and pumpkin mixture.
  • Cover and cook on Low for 3 hours, until firm.
  • Turn off the slow cooker and let the pudding sit, covered, for 20 minutes before serving.
