Gingerbread Bread Pudding image

This delicious bread pudding was inspired by canarygirl, Jane_in_RI, and *Denise*. I had a loaf of gingerbread in the freezer (#44268, by Sue L) and wanted to do something different. So we came up with this. And it is heavenly! A great change from everyday bread pudding, and wonderful for the cooler days of fall and winter.

Time 50m

Yield 6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 7

5 -6 cups of cubed gingerbread
1 cup half-and-half
2 cups milk
6 eggs
1/2 cup sugar
1 teaspoon vanilla
1/4 cup raisins, plumped in hot water

Steps:

  • Heat oven to 350°, grease an 8" square pan.
  • I used a loaf size gingerbread for this, sliced and placed on a cookie sheet-toast in the oven for 5 or so minutes.
  • Remove from oven, and cut into cubes.
  • Place the cubes in the greased baking dish, they should just about fill the pan.
  • Whisk the half and half, milk, eggs, sugar and vanilla in a bowl, and pour over the gingerbread.
  • Let this sit for about 5 minutes.
  • Cover the raisins with water and microwave for about one minute--drain off the water, then sprinkle them over the top of the pudding.
  • Bake at 350° for 40-45 minutes.
  • A knife inserted in the center will still look a bit wet, but mostly clean.
  • Serve warm, with a bit of cream poured over, or whipped cream.
