Ingredients for Amaretto Bread Pudding

  • White Bread
  • Half And Half
  • 1 cup granulated sugar
  • 4 large eggs
  • Almond Extract
  • Almonds
  • 1/4 cup (1/2 stick) unsalted butter, melted
  • Powdered sugar, for dusting (optional)
  • Egg
  • Amaretto Liqueur

How to Make Amaretto Bread Pudding

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a 9x13 inch baking dish.
  2. In a large bowl, whisk together the eggs, sugar, amaretto, vanilla extract, and heavy cream until well combined.
  3. Cut the bread into 1-inch cubes and gently toss them with the melted butter.
  4. Arrange the bread cubes evenly in the prepared baking dish.
  5. Pour the custard mixture over the bread, ensuring all the cubes are soaked.
  6. Let the bread pudding sit for 15-20 minutes to allow the bread to absorb the custard.
  7. Bake for 40-50 minutes, or until the pudding is set and golden brown on top.
  8. Let cool slightly before serving. Dust with powdered sugar (optional) and enjoy!

Chef's Tip for Extra Flavor

Elevate your dish with simple flavor boosters! A final flourish of freshly chopped herbs can add incredible brightness, while a squeeze of lemon or lime juice right before serving can awaken all the flavors. Don't underestimate a sprinkle of quality finishing salt or a drizzle of good olive oil to make your creation shine.
