Ingredients for Aunt Emma S Bread Pudding

  • White Bread
  • 4 cups whole milk
  • Butter
  • White Sugar
  • 4 large eggs
  • Vanilla
  • Raisins
  • 1/2 cup packed light brown sugar

How to Make Aunt Emma S Bread Pudding

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a 9x13 inch baking dish.
  2. In a large bowl, combine the cubed bread, milk, eggs, vanilla extract, and salt. Mix gently until the bread is evenly moistened. Let it sit for 10-15 minutes to allow the bread to absorb the liquid.
  3. Pour the bread mixture into the prepared baking dish.
  4. In a small bowl, combine the brown sugar and cinnamon. Gently crumble the brown sugar mixture over the top of the bread pudding, ensuring an even distribution. Avoid pressing it down too firmly.
  5. Bake for 70 minutes, or until the pudding is set and the top is golden brown and bubbly. The center should be cooked through but still slightly moist.
  6. Let the bread pudding cool slightly before serving. Enjoy warm, perhaps with a scoop of vanilla ice cream or whipped cream!

Chef's Tip for Extra Flavor

Small additions can make a big impact! Try a sprinkle of fresh herbs, a dash of your favorite spice blend, or a squeeze of citrus just before serving to really enhance the flavors of your dish.
