Bread Pudding

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 the Custard

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

  4. 4

    Combine and Soak

    Pour the custard mixture over the bread cubes. Gently stir to ensure all bread is soaked. Let it sit for 15-30 minutes to absorb the mixture.

  5. 5

    Transfer to Baking Dish

    Grease a baking dish with butter and pour the soaked bread mixture into the dish evenly.

  6. 6

    Bake

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

  7. 7

    Serve Warm

    Remove from the oven and let it cool slightly before serving warm with your favorite sauce.
