Warm French Bread Pudding image

I do not know where this recipe comes from, but this is my favorite bread pudding recipe. You can use any kind of bread. I even used up some left over muffins that made this dish, the best I ever ate. Even my husband raised his eyebrows and had a big smile. My grandmother and mom made bread pudding all the time and I just love...

Time 1h10m

Number Of Ingredients 10

1 stick butter, room temperature
1 c sugar
6 large eggs, room temperature
1 3/4 c milk or cream
2 tsp vanilla
1 1/2 tsp cinnamon
1 dash(es) nutmeg
6 c sourdough french bread, cut in 1" cubes
opt: 1 cup pealed and chopped fruit (apple,peach, raisins)
topping opt: 1/2 cup maple syrup

Steps:

  • 1. Oven: preheat 350 degrees Beat butter and sugar until blended. Add eggs and blend well. Blend in milk, vanilla and spices. Mixture will look grainy.
  • 2. Lightly grease with butter a 2 quart baking dish. Put in bread cubes and fruit. Pour the milk mixture over bread. Lightly stir and let set 10 minutes. Stirring if needed.
  • 3. Cover and bake, 40 minutes. Uncover and bake for 10 minutes until top is lightly browned and pudding is set.
  • 4. Remove from oven. Pour over top the maple syrup if selected. I have not used the maple syrup topping or the fruit. I have used leftover muffins. Slice like a loafs of bread and layer into baking dish. Kind of like how you would put on a dish to serve. Pour liquid over muffins and let set for 10 minutes..I did not stir.
