Eggnog Bread Pudding Recipes

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C). Generously grease a 9x12-inch baking dish with butter.
• Spread bread into the bottom of the prepared baking dish. Sprinkle apple pieces evenly over the bread pieces.
• Beat eggnog and eggs together in a bowl; pour over the bread and apples. Cover dish with aluminum foil.
• Bake in preheated oven for 30 minutes, remove aluminum foil, and continue baking until browned and somewhat set in the middle, about 10 minutes more.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 375°. In a large bowl, whisk eggs and eggnog until blended. Stir in cubed rolls, pecans and cranberries; let stand about 15 minutes or until bread is softened., Transfer to a greased 8-in. square baking dish. Bake 35-40 minutes or until puffed, golden and a knife inserted in the center comes out clean. Serve warm.

Steps:

• Spread 2 tablespoons butter in each of 2 9x13-inch ovenproof glass baking dishes.
• Place bread in large bowl; pour milk over and let soak until liquid is absorbed, about 1 hour.
• Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
• Using electric mixer, beat eggs,egg yolks,cream,sugar,bourbon,rum and brandy in medium bowl until smooth and thick; pour egg mixture over bread.
• Add raisins and stir until combined.
• Divide mixture between 2 prepared dishes, spreading evenly.
• Sprinkle each with 1 teaspoon nutmeg.
• Place dishes into larger baking pans; add water to pans to come 2/3 way up sides of dishes.
• Bake until knife inserted in center comes out clean, about 1 hour.
• Serve pudding warm with vanilla ice cream or whipped cream, if desired.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 475 degrees F.
• Place a tea-kettle of water on to boil for a water bath. With a serrated knife, remove the side crusts from the half piece of the panettone. Cut into 3/4 to 1-inch dice. You should have 5 cups. Reserve the cubed panettone in a large mixing bowl.
• For the eggnog custard, in another bowl thoroughly whisk together the eggs, yolks, sugar, half and half, rum, vanilla extract, and a healthy grating of fresh nutmeg. Pour this over the bread cubes.
• Spray a 12 hole muffin tin with vegetable cooking spray. Ladle the bread/eggnog mixture gently and evenly into the muffin tins. The big cubes sticking up look nice. Place the filled muffin tin in a tall sided cookie sheet or roasting pan. Transfer to the preheated oven and carefully pour the hot water from kettle onto sheet pan, creating a water bath for the muffin tin to sit in.
• Bake 15 to 20 minutes until the tops are nicely browned, and a toothpick comes clean from the center.
• Bread pudding may be served warm or cold. Vanilla Ice cream or whipped cream would be great accompaniments.
• Alternately place the muffin tin in a roasting pan on the stove. Pour in up to 1-inch of boiling water. Cover and cook over medium-high heat for 15 to 20 minutes. The puddings will puff and a toothpick will come out clean from the center. The tops won't brown with this method. Perhaps a sprinkle of cinnamon sugar at serving time would be nice.
