Ingredients for Apple Cinnamon Bread Pudding

  • Golden Delicious Apples
  • Cinnamon Sugar
  • 1 cup granulated sugar
  • 2 teaspoons ground cinnamon
  • Butter
  • 4 large eggs
  • Whole Milk
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • Cinnamon Raisin Bread

How to Make Apple Cinnamon 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, milk, cream, vanilla extract, cinnamon, and nutmeg.
  3. Cut the bread into 1-inch cubes and place them in the prepared baking dish.
  4. Peel, core, and dice the apples. Gently toss the apples with 2 tablespoons of sugar and 1/2 teaspoon of cinnamon.
  5. Arrange the diced apples evenly over the bread cubes in the baking dish.
  6. Pour the custard mixture evenly over the bread and apples, ensuring all the bread is moistened.
  7. Let the pudding sit for 15-20 minutes to allow the bread to absorb the custard.
  8. Bake for 50-60 minutes, or until the pudding is set and golden brown. A toothpick inserted into the center should come out with a few moist crumbs attached.
  9. Let the pudding cool for at least 15 minutes before serving. Dust with powdered sugar (optional) and serve warm with a scoop of vanilla ice cream or whipped cream.

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!
