minutesIngredients
8 cups (about 8 slices) day-old French bread, torn into bite-sized pieces
4 large eggs
2 cups whole milk
1 cup granulated sugar
1/4 cup unsalted butter, melted
1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1/4 teaspoon ground nutmeg
1/4 teaspoon salt
- For the Vanilla Sauce:
1/2 cup unsalted butter
1/2 cup heavy cream
1/2 cup granulated sugar
1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
Directions
- Making the Bread Pudding:
- Preheat your oven to 350Ā°F (175Ā°C) and grease a 9×13-inch baking dish.
- Place the torn French bread pieces in the prepared baking dish.
- In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the eggs, whole milk, granulated sugar, melted butter, vanilla extract, ground cinnamon, ground nutmeg, and salt until well combined.
- Pour the egg mixture evenly over the bread pieces, making sure all the bread is soaked.
- Let the bread pudding sit for about 15 minutes, allowing the bread to absorb the custard mixture.
- Bake in the preheated oven for 40-45 minutes or until the top is golden brown and the center is set.
- Making the Vanilla Sauce:
- While the bread pudding is baking, prepare the vanilla sauce. In a small saucepan, melt the butter over medium heat.
- Stir in the heavy cream and granulated sugar. Cook, stirring constantly, until the sugar is completely dissolved and the mixture thickens slightly, about 5-7 minutes.
- Remove the saucepan from heat and stir in the vanilla extract.
- Once the bread pudding is out of the oven, drizzle the warm vanilla sauce over the top.
- Allow the bread pudding to cool slightly before serving.
Notes
- Day-old or slightly stale bread works best for bread pudding, as it absorbs the custard without becoming too mushy.
- For an extra special touch, you can add raisins, chopped pecans, or a handful of chocolate chips to the bread pudding mixture before baking.
