Bread Pudding
Method
Preparation
Preheat the Oven
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
Prepare the Bread
Cut the stale bread into cubes and place them in a large mixing bowl.
Mix Wet Ingredients
In another bowl, whisk together the whole milk, heavy cream, granulated sugar, eggs, vanilla extract, ground cinnamon, and salt until well combined.
Combine Ingredients
Pour the wet mixture over the cubed bread. Gently fold in the raisins and let the mixture sit for about 15 minutes to allow the bread to absorb the liquid.
Bake
Transfer the mixture to a greased baking dish and bake in the preheated oven for 45-50 minutes, or until the top is golden brown and a knife inserted in the center comes out clean.
Prepare the Irish Whiskey Sauce
While the bread pudding is baking, prepare the Irish whiskey sauce by combining 1 cup of heavy cream, 1/2 cup of Irish whiskey, 1/4 cup of granulated sugar, and 1 tsp of vanilla extract in a saucepan over medium heat. Stir until the sugar dissolves and the sauce thickens slightly.
Serve
Once the bread pudding is done, allow it to cool for a few minutes, then serve warm drizzled with the Irish whiskey sauce.
