Bread Pudding

House Whipped Cream

Praline Sauce

Method

Bread Pudding

  1. 1

    Prepare the Bread

    Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C). Cut the stale bread into cubes and place them in a large mixing bowl.

  2. 2

    Make the Custard Mixture

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

  3. 3

    Combine Bread and Custard

    Pour the custard mixture over the cubed bread, making sure all pieces are soaked. Allow it to sit for 15-20 minutes.

  4. 4

    Bake the Pudding

    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 comes out clean.

House Whipped Cream

  1. 5

    Whip the Cream

    In a mixing bowl, combine heavy cream, powdered sugar, and vanilla extract. Using an electric mixer, whip until soft peaks form.

Praline Sauce

  1. 6

    Prepare the Sauce

    In a saucepan over medium heat, combine brown sugar, butter, and heavy cream. Stir continuously until the mixture comes to a boil.

  2. 7

    Add Pecans

    Once boiling, reduce the heat and add chopped pecans and vanilla extract. Stir for an additional 2-3 minutes until the sauce thickens slightly.
