Hi,
I haven't check this group in a while so maybe what I am looking for is already here. Does anyone have a recipe for Cranberry Bread Pudding or a good recipe for plain bread pudding. Thanks Cora -- Success Comes To Those Who Hustle Wisely |

Plain Bread Pudding Take day old white bread, preferably crusty bread, butter each slice on both sides. Layer in bread pan, starting with bread, adding brown sugar and if desired, raisins or currants, bread, sugar (again fruit if desired), bread. Add 1 beaten egg and a cup of scalded milk. Bake at 325F for 30 minutes or until top is medium golden brown. Serve with maple syrup of your choice. -- Certainty of death. Small chance of success. What are we waiting for? Gimli, son of Gloín |

One egg to a cup of dairy seems kind of skimpy to me. I also don't see why you would have to scald the milk. I like one egg per half cup of dairy, preferably half and half or light cream. I also like to let the bread soak in the mix for a while before baking. Instead of white bread, I like challah or brioche. Day old cinnamon rolls are another good choice. (I recently saw a version made with day old Krispy Cream doughnuts!) I would also add some vanilla or some bourbon. |

Debate as you might, the poster requested a plain bread pudding recipe, not a Cordon Bleu concoction or a Kalifornia kweezeen variation. What I did was provide a plain bread pudding recipe. You are free to provide your own, but be advised that my mother made this simple recipe every time she made bread pudding and strangely enough, no one pointed to flaws in the design, perhaps because it is what it is, a plain bread pudding recipe. As for egg to dairy, those were her measurements and they always worked out fine. -- Certainty of death. Small chance of success. What are we waiting for? Gimli, son of Gloín |

I just don't think it would be very good. Wonder bread, milk, one egg and some sugar - not my idea of bread pudding. Most people tend to accept what they grow up with, so I have no doubt that your family found your mother's bread pudding acceptable. You have to do a lot to that before you cross into Cordon Bleu territory. I still don't see any reason the scald the milk when you are making custard. |

What I did was provide a plain bread pudding recipe. What you did was provide a typical UK-style "Bread and Butter Pudding" recipe, which is one of my favorites and also my preference over the typical "bread pudding". Bread Pudding seldom specifies whole slices of bread spread with butter and layered. More often than not, it specifies smallish cubes of bread or even bread that has been soaked, then squeezed nearly dry and then beaten into the egg/milk/cream custard.

More than acceptable. I have eaten others more like those you have suggested and not liked them better. It isn't because it's my mother's, it's because it's good. > You have to do a lot to that before you > cross into Cordon Bleu territory. Who would want to do THAT? For one thing I said that it WASN'T a Cordon Bleu recipe. So why bring it up? > I still don't see any reason the > scald the milk when you are making custard. Ok, you don't. -- Certainty of death.

Too sweet or too much butter. I like butter and sweet desserts as much as anyone, but I have my limits. She was funny in the Krispy Kreme store, getting 20 donuts in a box meant for 12. Made me laugh, anyway. Goofy. nancy |

Goofy. > I watch her because of her personality and the goofy things she does - and because PBS is still showing quilting and woodworking shows at that time on Saturday monings. Much of her food fits into that new "semi-homemade" category and doesn't appeal to me. I wonder if that's how they do thing in her restaurant? I love sweet desserts, but I tend to draw the line at glazed Krispy Kream doughnuts. They do make my teeth hurt! And that recipe had sweetened condensed milk in addition to the doughnuts! |

Just had this last week. Hard sauce is good, too... but the Amaretto sauce is great. Bread Pudding with Amaretto Sauce (makes 12 -or more- servings) 1 loaf stale french bread, cut or torn into 2" pieces. 6 eggs 1 quart milk (or half-n-half is much better) 1/2 cup Sugar, I used 1/2 brown 1/2 white, and a little more. 2 tbs amaretto, (I use more) 1 cup raisins, or chopped dried apricots, I used more 1 tablespoon vanilla extract 1 lb semisweet chocolate chips 2 tablespoons of cinnamon mixed with a little sugar 1 batch Amaretto Sauce, see below Amaretto sauce 1 stick butter 1 cup powdered sugar 1/2 cup or more of amaretto, or other liqueur. Bread Pudding: Preheat oven to 375. soak bread in milk. Add sugar, vanilla, and dried fruit (soak fruit in amaretto - I use enough liquid to cover fruit and stir it occasionally, and add all to recipe). Add eggs (I whip them up before adding), and chocolate chips, chopped nuts if wanted. Mix lightly, and pour into a well buttered 9x13 baking dish. Sprinkle cinnamon and sugar mix on top. Bake for 30-45 minutes, till it gets a little crispy on top. Remove from oven. While hot, poke holes in pudding with the end of a wooden spoon. Pour hot Amaretto Sauce over bread pudding to penetrate the pudding as well as glaze the top. Amaretto Sauce: In a small saucepan, melt butter over low heat. Add sugar, stirring constantly. Whisk in amaretto and heat slowly for one or two minutes. Karen |

This would fit into the category of plain bread pudding. I have made it several times and it is a winner. Golden Nugget Bread Pudding The famous bread pudding served at the Golden Nugget in Las Vegas. 16 oz. half & half 8 oz. whipping cream 8 eggs 1 1/4 cups sugar 1/4 tsp. vanilla 4 1/2 slices white bread 1/2 tsp. cinnamon 1 tsp. sugar 2 tblsp. raisins Mix well the half & half, whipping cream, eggs, sugar, and vanilla. Arrange bread on bottom of pan. Pour liquid over bread. Mix cinnamon with 1 tsp. sugar and sprinkle over bread. Spread raisins over top. Cover with foil, bake in water bath at 400 for 75 to 90 minutes. |

You may as well just leave the bread out ;-) It's the custard that makes or breaks bread pudding, in my opinion. I really dislike recipes that don't give definite measurements. It would be better if they said x cups of cubed bread or x oz. If it is sandwich bread, it isn't much. One reason to soak the bread for some time is to judge if you have enough. If, after an hour or so you have a lot of custard, then you can add more bread. |

As Paula dumped the sweetened condensed milk and/or the fruit cocktail with the syrup onto the Krispy Kremes, she said with emphasis, "There is no added sugar in this recipe." After she mixed melted the butter and the powdered sugar for the sauce, she whipped out a flask of rum and started free-pouring. When she tasted the finished pudding, she looked into the camera and said to Bill Nicholson, who gave her the recipe, "You are a BAD BOY, Bill Nicholson! You need a SPANKING, 'cause you are a BAD BOY!!!" That was the same episode in which she deep fried biscuits and injected them with honey butter. It was one of the funniest Food TV shows I've seen recently. Derek Juhl |

What I find interesting is that she was so agoraphobic (or is it xenophobic?) when she was young, that she seldom left the house. Apparently she had a business making boxed lunches and her kids delivered them on their bicycles. It seems hard to believe when you watch her now. |
