Bread Pudding Ingredients

Method

Bread Pudding Directions

  1. 1

    Prepare the Bread

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

  2. 2

    Mix the Custard

    In another bowl, whisk together the milk, heavy cream, sugar, eggs, vanilla extract, cinnamon, nutmeg, and salt until well combined.

  3. 3

    Combine Ingredients

    Pour the custard mixture over the torn bread pieces. Let it sit for about 15 minutes, allowing the bread to soak up the liquid.

  4. 4

    Prepare the Baking Dish

    Grease a baking dish with butter. Transfer the soaked bread mixture into the prepared dish, spreading it evenly.

  5. 5

    Bake

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

  6. 6

    Cool and Serve

    Remove from the oven and let it cool for a few minutes before serving. Enjoy warm or at room temperature.
