Bobby Flays Pumpkin Bread Pudding Recipes

Steps:

• For the marmalade butter: Mix the butter, marmalade, orange zest and sea salt together in a bowl until smooth. Cover and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes to allow the flavors to meld. Remove from the refrigerator 15 minutes before serving.
• For the swirl bread: Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Brush a 9-by-5-inch loaf pan with butter, or spray with nonstick spray; set aside.
• Combine the flour, baking soda, pumpkin pie spice, baking powder and fine salt in a medium bowl.
• Place the sugar and oil in the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with the paddle attachment and beat on medium-high speed until well combined (it'll look like wet sand), about 1 minute.
• Turn the mixer to medium speed and add the eggs, one at a time, beating well after each addition. Reduce the speed to low, add the pumpkin puree and vanilla extract, and mix until just combined, about 30 seconds. Stop the mixer and scrape down the sides of the bowl and the paddle. Add the flour mixture, and mix until just combined.
• Remove the bowl from the mixer and drizzle the melted chocolate evenly over the batter.
• Using a rubber spatula, fold the chocolate into the batter until it's just swirled in. (Be careful not to fully incorporate the chocolate into the batter--you want a marbled effect.)
• Pour the batter into the prepared loaf pan and spread it into an even layer. Bake until the bread is browned on top and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out with a few moist crumbs attached, 50 to 60 minutes. Let cool in the pan on a wire rack for 10 minutes. Remove from pan and let cool another 10 minutes before slicing. Serve with the marmalade butter.

Steps:

• For the bread:.
• In a bowl, combine 1 3/4 cup all-purpose flour, 1/4 teaspoons baking powder, 1 teaspoons salt, 1 teaspoons baking soda, 1 teaspoons cinnamon and 1/2 teaspoons ground cloves.
• In a separate, larger bowl, beat 2 eggs, 1/3 cup unsalted butter and 3/4 cup sugar until fluffy. Add 1 cup pumpkin puree, 1/3 cup milk and 1 teaspoons vanilla.
• With a rubber spatula, add dry ingredients to wet and incorporate til blended.
• Bake in a 350 oven in a greased loaf pan, about 1 hour, or until an inserted skewer comes out clean. Let cool and invert.
• Cut half of your bread into cubes when cool and let get stale before continuing with recipe. The other half is great for breakfast.
• For the pudding:.
• Preheat oven to 300 degrees.
• Scald 1 cup milk, 1 cup cream and 2 teaspoons sugar. This means warming, just below boiling point, not scorching the milk. Make sure a skin has not developed on the surface; if so, remove. Optional add-on: 1 or 2 ounces of your favorite bourbon, whiskey or rum.
• Combine 5 egg yolks, 1/4 cup canned pumpkin puree, 1 teaspoons vanilla, pinch of salt, 1/4 teaspoons each of ground cinnamon, nutmeg and ginger and 1/2 cup sugar (minus 2 tsp.) and whisk.
• Ladle one or two ladles of milk into the egg mixture and whisk. You want to gently bring up the temperature of the egg mixture before adding to the milk. This process, tempering, helps to prevent curdling. Incorporate all of egg mixture into milk and stir, on low to medium heat, with wooden spoon until mixture has body and thickness. A good barometer is a visible streak made with your finger on the back of spoon.
• Take off heat. Pour over bread cubes, which are waiting in a 2-quart buttered pan (approximate size).
• Pour about 1 inch of water into a larger pan and set pudding pan inside. Water should be half way up the pan. This is called a bain-marie or water bath. Bake for about 50 minutes, or until custard is set. Serve warm or at room temperature. Not very tasty served cold from the fridge.
• Serves at least 9, maybe a few more.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.
• Cut up bread while milk and butter are heating in a pot. Combine liquids, eggs, sugar, and spice. Add bread last by submerging it using your hands so that it gets thoroughly soaked. Transfer into a buttered 9 by 13-inch pan, pouring gently so that bread doesn't break up too much. Bake until an inserted skewer or knife comes out clean, about 40 minutes.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F.
• Butter a 9 by 13-inch glass baking dish. Arrange half of the brioche along the bottom of the dish, and cut or tear the slices to fit. Spread 3/4 cup of the jam on top and cover with the remaining bread.
• Whisk the eggs, sugar, 2 1/2 cups of the milk, and the vanilla together; pour over the bread. Press to soak and brush the top with 4 tablespoons of the melted butter. Cover with foil and bake for 15 minutes. Remove the foil and continue baking for 15 minutes longer or until the pudding is set. Remove from the oven.
• Preheat the broiler. In a bowl, whisk the remaining 1 tablespoon of milk with the confectioners' sugar. Stir in the remaining melted butter and jam until the mixture is smooth. Spread the mixture over the top of the pudding, place under the broiler, and broil until the glaze is golden. Serve hot or warm, garnished with fresh strawberries.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 325 degrees F. Combine the cream, milk, vanilla bean and seeds in a small saucepan over medium heat and bring to a simmer.
• Whisk together the yolks, sugar, maple syrup, and pumpkin puree in a large bowl. Slowly whisk in the hot cream mixture until combined, remove the vanilla pod, and whisk in the bourbon. Strain the custard into a clean bowl.
• Scatter the pumpkin bread cubes in a buttered 9 by 13-inch baking glass baking dish. Pour the custard over the bread, pressing down on the bread to totally submerge it in the custard. Let sit for 15 minutes to allow the bread to soak up some of the custard.
• Place the pan in a larger roasting pan and pour hot tap water into the roasting pan until it comes half way up the sides of the glass dish. Bake until the sides are slightly puffed and the center jiggles slightly, about 1 hour.
• Remove from the oven and water bath and cool on a baking rack for at least 30 minutes before serving.
• Spoon some of the Vanilla Bean Creme Anglaise into a shallow bowl, top with some of the bread pudding and drizzle with the Spicy Caramel Apple Sauce. Top with freshly whipped cream. Bread pudding is best served warm.
• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Butter or lightly spray the bottom and sides of a 9-inch loaf pan with nonstick cooking spray.
• Whisk together the flour, salt, baking soda, baking powder, allspice, cinnamon, nutmeg, and cloves in a small bowl.
• In the bowl of a standing mixer fitted with the paddle attachment, beat the 4 tablespoons softened butter, sugar, and oil at high speed until light and fluffy, about 1 minute, scraping down the sides and bottom of the bowl a few times.
• Add the pumpkin puree and mix until combined. Add the eggs, one at a time, and mix until just incorporated. At low speed, slowly add the flour mixture and water and mix until just combined. Spread the batter into the prepared pan and bake until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean, about 60 to 75 minutes. Let cool in the pan on a baking rack for 10 minutes. Remove from the pan and let cool completely.
• Once the bread is cool, slice in half lengthwise, and then slice each half into 1/2-inch cubes. Spread the cubes on a large baking sheet and bake in a 325 degree oven until lightly toasted, turning once, about 20 minutes. Let cool.
• Bring the half-and-half and vanilla bean and seeds to a simmer in a medium saucepan.
• Whisk together the yolks and sugar in a medium bowl until at the pale ribbon stage. Slowly whisk in the hot half-and-half, return the mixture to the pot, and cook over medium heat, stirring constantly with a wooden spoon, until the mixture coats the back of the spoon. Strain into a bowl and set over an ice bath. Stir until chilled. Cover and refrigerate at least 1 hour before serving.
• Combine the cream, apple juice, star anise, ginger, cloves, cinnamon sticks, and nutmeg in a small saucepan and bring to a simmer. Remove from the heat and let steep for at least 20 minutes. Strain the mixture into a clean, small saucepan and place back over low heat while you make the caramel.
• Combine the sugar, water and, vinegar in a medium saucepan over high heat and cook without stirring, until it's a deep amber color, about 8 minutes. Slowly whisk in the warm cream mixture a little at a time, and continue whisking until smooth. Add the apple schnapps and cook for 30 seconds longer. Transfer to a bowl and keep warm. The sauce can be made 2 days in advance and refrigerated. Reheat over low heat before serving.
