Method

Preparation

  1. 1

    Preheat the Oven

    Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) to prepare for baking the bread pudding.

  2. 2

    Prepare Bread

    Cut the stale bread into cubes and place them in a large mixing bowl.

  3. 3

    Mix Seasonal Ingredients

    Add the diced apples, dried cranberries, and chopped pecans to the bowl with the bread cubes.

Custard Mixture

  1. 4

    Combine Wet Ingredients

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

  2. 5

    Mix with Bread

    Pour the custard mixture over the bread and seasonal ingredients, ensuring all pieces are soaked. Let it sit for about 15 minutes to absorb.

Baking

  1. 6

    Transfer to Baking Dish

    Grease a 9x13 inch baking dish and pour the soaked bread mixture into it, spreading it evenly.

  2. 7

    Bake

    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.

Serving

  1. 8

    Cool and Serve

    Allow the bread pudding to cool for about 10 minutes before serving. Drizzle with maple syrup and dust with powdered sugar to taste.
