Looking for a soul food bread pudding recipe. great tasting?

THIS IS THE BEST TASTING - ALSO SIMPLE %26amp; QUICK TO MAKE :-)


You MUST try this recipe! I LOVE bread pudding, it's always my first choice dessert when dining out, and each recipe is so different, I've tried many. I think the evaporated milk %26amp; large # of eggs plays a big part in the great taste and texture.





7 slices of bread (broken in small pieces) I prefer a dense white bread, but experiment w/ %26amp; mix different breads


1 stick melted butter


8 eggs


1 1/2 cups sugar


1 can (5oz) evaporated milk


1 1/2 tsp vanilla


1 tsp cinnamon





Mix all ingredients together in a bowl. Pour into 8X8 glass pan %26amp; place pan in water in oven. Cook at 350 degrees for about 1 hour.





I like it served warm topped w/ vanilla ice cream, but here's a sauce recipe if you prefer:





Sauce for bread pudding

1/2 tsp vanilla


1 tsp rum flavoring


1 1/2 stick melted butter


milk (added to make sauce thin)

I switch original recipes around a bit for variety %26amp; like the sounds of the bourbon soaked raisins in the 1st answerers recipe, so might try adding those to this recipe next time :-)Looking for a soul food bread pudding recipe. great tasting?

Bread pudding





1 loaf French bread, cut into 1-inch squares (about 6-7 cups)


1 qt milk


3 eggs, lightly beaten


2 cups sugar


2 Tbsp vanilla


1 cup raisins (soaked overnight in 1/4 cup bourbon)


1/4 teaspoon allspice


1/4 to 1/2 teaspoon cinnamon





3 Tbsp unsalted butter, melted





1 Preheat oven to 350掳F.





2 Soak the bread in milk in a large mixing bowl. Crush with hands until well mixed and all the milk is absorbed. In a separate bowl, beat eggs, sugar, vanilla, and spices together. Gently stir into the bread mixture. Gently stir the raisins into the mixture.





3 Pour butter into the bottom of a 9x13 inch baking pan. Coat the bottom and the sides of the pan well with the butter. Pour in the bread mix and bake at 350掳F for 35-45 minutes, until set. The pudding is done when the edges start getting a bit brown and pull away from the edge of the pan. Can also make in individual ramekins.





Serve with bourbon whiskey sauce on the side; pour on to taste. Best fresh and eaten the day it is made. Makes 8-10 servings.
