Croissant Bread Pudding image

One of the best dessert I have ever made! This custardy creation was the perfect finale for a Cajun themed dinner. Eat it while it's hot but be warned - you won't be able to stop!!! Enjoy!

Time 1h

Yield 8 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 9

10 cups croissants, cut into 1-inch pieces (about 10 regular sized croissants)
2 cups milk
2 cups heavy cream
1 cup sugar
1 cup brown sugar
3 eggs
1 tablespoon vanilla (yes, a whole tablespoon!)
1 teaspoon cinnamon
1/2 cup pecans

Steps:

  • Prepare a 9x13 baking dish with cooking spray or rub with butter.
  • Place croissant cubes in the bottom of pan.
  • Sprinkle cubes with pecan pieces.
  • In a large mixing bowl, combine milk and heavy cream. Whisk in both sugars, eggs, vanilla and cinnamon. Combine until smooth and well blended. Pour over the top of croissant cubes and pecans. Very gently press down cubes so they are all moist.
  • Cover with foil and refrigerate for 1-3 hours.
  • Preheat oven to 350°F.
  • Uncover and bake for 35-40 minutes. It should be nicely browned and slightly jiggly.
  • Let sit for 5-10 minutes as it will be very hot. Top each serving with vanilla ice cream or some type of warm caramel sauce.
