Bread Pudding

For Serving

Method

Preparation

  1. 1

    Preheat the Oven

    Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).

  2. 2

    Prepare the Bread

    Cut the day-old bread into cubes and place them in a large mixing bowl.

  3. 3

    Mix Wet Ingredients

    In a separate bowl, whisk together the whole milk, heavy cream, granulated sugar, eggs, vanilla extract, and salt until well combined.

  4. 4

    Combine Mixtures

    Pour the wet mixture over the bread cubes, ensuring that all pieces are soaked. Let it sit for about 15 minutes to absorb the liquid.

  5. 5

    Add Chocolate Chips

    Gently fold in the semi-sweet chocolate chips into the bread mixture.

  6. 6

    Transfer to Baking Dish

    Grease a baking dish (9x13 inches works well) and pour the bread pudding mixture into it, spreading it evenly.

  7. 7

    Bake

    Bake in the preheated oven for 45-50 minutes or until the top is golden brown and a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.

Serving

  1. 8

    Cool and Serve

    Once baked, remove the bread pudding from the oven and allow it to cool for about 10 minutes. Serve warm with scoops of vanilla gelato on top and drizzle with chocolate syrup if desired.
