How to Make Bread Pudding Thanksgiving
- Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a 9x9 inch baking pan with butter.
- In a large bowl, whisk together: 4 cups milk, 1 cup heavy cream, 4 large eggs, ¾ cup granulated sugar, 1 teaspoon vanilla extract, and ½ teaspoon salt until a smooth custard forms.
- Add the following ingredients to the custard and gently fold to combine: 4 cups cubed stale bread (ciabatta, como, or pugliese recommended), 1 cup chopped walnuts, ½ cup raisins (optional), 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon, 1 tablespoon orange zest.
- Gently press the bread into the custard to ensure it's mostly submerged. Let it sit for 30 minutes to 6 hours in the refrigerator, depending on how dry your bread is. The longer it sits, the more the bread will absorb the custard.
- Pour the bread pudding mixture into the prepared baking pan.
- Bake for 50-60 minutes, or until the top is golden brown and a knife inserted into the center comes out clean (it may be slightly moist).
- Let cool slightly before serving. Enjoy warm!
