Croissant Breakfast Bread Pudding In A Slow Cooker Recipe 465

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Spray muffin cups or brownie pan with cooking spray.
• Mix milk, cream, eggs, sugar, and vanilla extract together in a bowl. Scrape the insides from each vanilla bean half into the milk mixture. Stir milk mixture until smooth and light yellow in color. Carefully stir croissant pieces into milk mixture until all pieces are wet; let soak for at least 10 minutes.
• Fold chocolate chips into croissant mixture. Spoon croissant mixture into the prepared muffin cups.
• Bake in the preheated oven until bubbling and golden brown, 35 to 45 minutes. Cool pudding for 30 minutes to 1 hour; transfer to a plate and sift powdered sugar over each.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Lightly grease a 9x13-inch baking pan.
• Place pecans on a baking sheet.
• Toast pecans in the preheated oven until golden brown, about 8 minutes. Remove from oven and set aside. Reduce oven temperature to 325 degrees F (165 degrees C).
• Place torn croissants into the prepared baking pan. Pour milk over bread and let soak for 10 minutes.
• Beat eggs, sugar, vanilla extract, cinnamon, and nutmeg together in a medium bowl using an electric mixer. Pour over bread mixture, blending well, using your hands if needed. Add toasted pecans, chocolate chips, and toffee bits. Mix well.
• Bake in the preheated oven until the center is cooked through and top is golden brown, about 1 hour.
• While bread pudding is baking, bring sugar, half-and-half, and butter to a boil in a saucepan over medium heat, stirring until sugar dissolves. Reduce heat and let custard simmer for 5 minutes.
• Remove custard from heat and let cool slightly. Pour in vanilla extract and stir well.
• Remove bread pudding from oven and serve warm with custard sauce.

Steps:

• Place bread and raisins in a slow cooker.
• Whisk milk, eggs, butter, sugar, vanilla extract, and nutmeg together in a bowl; pour over bread and raisins. Toss to evenly coat.
• Cook on Low until a knife inserted near the center comes out clean, about 3 hours.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
• In a medium bowl, whisk together the whole eggs, egg yolks, half-and-half, sugar, and vanilla. Set the custard mixture aside. Slice the croissants in half horizontally. In a 10 by 15 by 2 1/2-inch oval baking dish, distribute the bottoms of the sliced croissants, then add the raisins, then the tops of the croissants (brown side up), being sure the raisins are between the layers of croissants or they will burn while baking. Pour the custard over the croissants and allow to soak for 10 minutes, pressing down gently.
• Place the pan in a larger one filled with 1-inch of hot water. Cover the larger pan with aluminum foil, tenting the foil so it doesn't touch the pudding. Cut a few holes in the foil to allow steam to escape. Bake for 45 minutes. Uncover and bake for 40 to 45 more minutes or until the pudding puffs up and the custard is set. Remove from the oven and cool slightly. Serve warm or at room temperature.

Steps:

• Whisk the caster sugar, whole egg and egg yolks together in a bowl. Put the Sheridan's and the cream in a pan, bring to the boil. Whisk on to the egg mixture, then leave until cooled slightly to make a custard.
• Lightly grease six 200ml/7fl oz ramekins with butter, place a layer of croissant slices in the bottom of each one, then add a generous sprinkle of muscovado sugar and a little of the egg custard. Keep on laying up croissant and custard in the same way, finishing it off with a sprinkling of sugar. Allow the pudding to settle for a while to soak up the custard. Heat oven to 200C/fan 180C/gas 6, then cook pudding for 18-20 mins until puffed up, golden and crispy (the muscovado sugar will give a tasty and sticky finish to the pudding).
• While the puddings are baking, make the sauce. Place the sugar and butter into a pan and stir over a medium heat until melted together. Pour in the cream and bring to the boil. Reduce the heat and simmer for 3-4 mins until dark and sticky. Serve the puddings in their dishes with a little of the warm butterscotch sauce poured over.

Steps:

• BREAD PUDDING: In medium mixing bowl, toss bread and orange zest together and set aside. In separate medium bowl, whisk eggs, sugar, cream and vanilla together well. Pour egg mixture over bread mixture and carefully fold together. Fold in berries. Spread soft butter around inside of slow cooker. Pour bread pudding mixture into slow cooker. Cook for 4 hours on low, or 2 hours on high. Serve with Brown Butter Cinnamon Glaze on side. BROWN BUTTER CINNAMON GLAZE: In medium sauce pan, heat butter over medium heat till golden brown, remove from burner to cool. Watch it carefully so it doesn't burn. Add sugar and cinnamon to the browned butter until it is slightly thickened. Serve warm with the bread pudding Note: Glaze may be made in advance and reheated on low heat in microwave until just softened.
