Pudding

Method

Pudding Preparation

  1. 1

    Prepare the Bread

    Tear the stale bread into bite-sized pieces and place them in a large mixing bowl.

  2. 2

    Heat the Milk and Cream

    In a saucepan over medium heat, combine the milk and heavy cream. Heat until warm but not boiling, then remove from heat.

  3. 3

    Mix the Wet Ingredients

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

  4. 4

    Combine Mixtures

    Pour the warm milk and cream mixture into the egg mixture, whisking constantly to prevent the eggs from scrambling.

  5. 5

    Add Bread and Raisins

    Pour the egg mixture over the torn bread and raisins. Stir gently to ensure all the bread is soaked. Let it sit for about 15 minutes to allow the bread to absorb the mixture.

  6. 6

    Preheat Oven

    Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).

  7. 7

    Bake the Pudding

    Transfer the mixture to a greased baking dish and bake for 45-50 minutes, or until the top is golden brown and a knife inserted in the center comes out clean.

Vanilla Sauce Preparation

  1. 8

    Melt the Butter

    In a saucepan over medium heat, melt the butter until fully liquid.

  2. 9

    Combine Sugar and Cream

    Add the granulated sugar and heavy cream to the melted butter, stirring constantly until the sugar dissolves and the mixture is smooth.

  3. 10

    Add Vanilla

    Stir in the vanilla extract and allow the sauce to simmer for a few minutes, stirring occasionally.

  4. 11

    Serve

    Once the bread pudding is done baking, serve warm with the vanilla sauce drizzled over the top.
