Time 1h30m

Yield 6 to 8 servings

Number Of Ingredients 13

3 tablespoons melted butter
3 eggs
1 cup sugar
1 (14-ounce) can coconut milk (not low-fat)
3 cups whole milk
1/4 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1/4 teaspoon ground cardamom
1/4 teaspoon ground ginger
Pinch salt
1 baguette, cut into 1-inch chunks (about 7 cups)
6 dried figs, soaked in hot water for at least 15 minutes, thinly sliced*
Handful roasted unsalted cashew nuts, whole or chopped
Vanilla ice cream, for serving

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Pour the melted butter into a 9 by 13-inch baking dish and use a pastry brush to make sure the dish is well coated.
  • In a large bowl, whisk the eggs and sugar together, then add the coconut milk, the whole milk, the spices and a pinch of salt. Add bread and figs and toss. Let soak for 15 minutes.
  • Pour the mixture into the prepped baking dish and sprinkle with the cashews. Bake until the pudding pulls away from the sides of the dish, about 35 minutes.
  • Remove the pudding from the oven and serve with ice cream.
