Ingredients for 2Bleu S Honey Pudding

  • Unsalted Butter
  • 1 cup milk
  • 2 large eggs
  • White Bread
  • ½ cup honey
  • ¼ cup hot water
  • Ground Cinnamon
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract

How to Make 2Bleu S Honey Pudding

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C).
  2. Grease a 9-inch glass pie dish with 1 tablespoon of butter.
  3. In a large bowl, whisk together 2 large eggs and 1 cup of milk. Add 4 cups of cubed day-old bread (challah, brioche, or similar), ensuring all pieces are evenly coated. Let it sit for 15 minutes, gently turning halfway through.
  4. In a large nonstick skillet, melt 2 tablespoons of butter over medium heat. Fry the soaked bread pieces for 2-3 minutes per side, until golden brown. Set aside.
  5. In a medium bowl, whisk together ½ cup honey and ¼ cup hot water until smooth. Stir in 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon and 1 teaspoon vanilla extract.
  6. Arrange the fried bread pieces in the prepared pie dish. Pour the honey mixture evenly over the bread, ensuring all pieces are coated.
  7. Bake for 30-35 minutes, or until golden brown and the custard is set. Let cool slightly before serving.

Chef's Tip for Extra Flavor

Chef's secret: layers of flavor make a dish truly memorable! Consider what a little extra something could bring – perhaps a touch of acidity like a good vinegar or citrus zest, a hint of smokiness from paprika, a bit of umami from mushrooms or soy sauce, or a sprinkle of toasted nuts for texture. Experiment and taste as you go!
