How to Make Apple Gingerbread Bread Pudding
- Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a 9x13 inch baking dish.
- In a large bowl, combine the cubed stale bread, apples, brown sugar, ginger, cinnamon, nutmeg, cloves, and salt.
- In a separate bowl, whisk together the eggs, milk, cream, vanilla extract, and melted butter.
- Pour the wet ingredients over the dry ingredients and gently stir until the bread is evenly moistened. Do not overmix.
- Pour the mixture into the prepared baking dish and 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.
- Let the bread pudding cool for at least 15-20 minutes before serving. Enjoy warm, perhaps 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!
