Bread Pudding Ingredients

Bourbon Sauce Ingredients

Method

Bread Pudding Directions

  1. 1

    Prepare the Oven

    Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a 9x13 inch baking dish with butter or cooking spray.

  2. 2

    Prepare the Bread

    Cut the day-old bread into cubes and place them in the greased baking dish. Add the raisins evenly over the bread cubes.

  3. 3

    Make the Custard Mixture

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

  4. 4

    Combine and Soak

    Pour the custard mixture over the bread cubes and raisins. Gently press down the bread to ensure it absorbs the custard. Let it sit for about 15-20 minutes.

  5. 5

    Bake

    Bake in the preheated oven for 35-45 minutes, or until the top is golden brown and a knife inserted in the center comes out clean.

Bourbon Sauce Directions

  1. 6

    Prepare the Sauce

    In a medium saucepan over medium heat, melt the unsalted butter.

  2. 7

    Add Sugar and Cream

    Once the butter has melted, add the brown sugar and stir until dissolved. Then, slowly whisk in the heavy cream.

  3. 8

    Finish with Bourbon

    Remove the saucepan from heat and stir in the bourbon and vanilla extract. Mix until well combined.

  4. 9

    Serve

    Serve the warm bread pudding drizzled with the bourbon sauce.
