Individual Goat Cheese And Rosemary Bread Puddings Recipes

Steps:

• Heat the oven to 350 degrees F. Butter a 9-inch loaf pan.
• Place the egg in a medium bowl; whisk in the milk and 4 tablespoons butter. (It's okay if there are still small chunks of butter remaining after whisking.)
• In a large bowl, mix together the flours, baking powder, rosemary and salt with a fork. Add the egg mixture and stir with a wooden spoon just until combined. Sprinkle the raisins and goat cheese over the batter; gently fold in with just 2 or 3 strokes.
• Pour into the prepared pan and bake until a toothpick inserted into the middle of the bread comes out clean, 50 to 55 minutes. Cool slightly, and slice.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350°F and butter six 1/2-cup ramekins.
• Discard crust from bread and tear enough bread into large pieces to measure 2 1/2 cups. Cut away rind from goat cheese, discarding it, and crumble cheese into 1/4-inch pieces. Mince rosemary leaves. In a food processor pulse bread in 2 batches until mostly coarse crumbs (there will be some fine crumbs). In a bowl toss together bread crumbs, goat cheese, and rosemary leaves.
• In a large bowl whisk together eggs, cream, milk, and salt and pepper to taste and stir in bread crumb mixture until combined well. Divide mixture evenly among ramekins. Put ramekins in a roasting pan and add enough hot water to pan to reach halfway up sides of ramekins. Bake puddings in middle of oven until puffed and golden, about 35 minutes. Transfer ramekins to a rack and cool puddings 10 minutes (puddings will sink as they cool). Serve puddings warm.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350°F. Lightly grease a 9- by 9-inch or 11- by 7-inch baking dish. Set aside.
• Whisk together the milk, eggs, rosemary, and salt and pepper to taste in a medium bowl.
• Place bread cubes in another medium bowl. Sprinkle with the cheese and drizzle with the milk mixture, making sure to coat all the bread cubes well. Allow the bread cubes to soak for 5 to 10 minutes, until bread is moist.
• Pour bread mixture into the prepared dish and bake in the oven for 20 to 35 minutes, until the top is golden brown and gives resistance to the touch, or a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean. Remove from the oven and let cool for a few minutes before serving.

Steps:

• Grease the bottom of a 13 by 9 by 2-inch baking dish or other shallow 3-quart baking pan.
• Butter each bread slice on one side. Stack the bread, 6 at a time, and cut on the diagonal into triangles. Place half of the bread pieces, buttered sides down, in the bottom of the prepared dish. Scatter the goat or feta cheese over the bread in one layer. Scatter the cherry tomatoes over the cheese. Top with the remaining buttered bread pieces, buttered sides up.
• In a bowl with a whisk, beat eggs, milk and pesto until well-blended. Pour over the bread and cheese mixture in the dish. Tamp down the top pieces of bread lightly with the back of a fork so that they soak up some liquid. Sprinkle the top with the grated cheese. Cover the dish tightly with foil and refrigerate overnight.
• To serve, remove the dish from the refrigerator and place it in a cold oven; turn the oven on to 350 degrees. Bake for 35 minutes with the foil on; remove foil and continue to bake until pudding is puffed and golden brown on top, 25 to 30 more minutes.

Steps:

• Rub the bread slices, front and back, with the cut clove of garlic. Cut into cubes. Place in a bowl and toss with 1 cup of the milk and let sit while you prepare the other ingredients. Note: If the bread is too hard to cut safely, place the whole chunk in a bowl with 1 cup of the milk. Refrigerate for 1 hour or longer, turning the bread in the milk every once in a while. Remove the bowl with the soaked bread from the refrigerator. Break up the bread with your hands. Using a wooden spoon, a whisk or an immersion blender, mash or beat the soaked bread so that the mixture turns into a mush.
• In a large bowl, beat together the eggs and goat cheese. Beat in the milk. Add salt to taste (about 1/2 teaspoon), a few twists of pepper and the bread, along with any milk remaining in the bowl in which you soaked the bread. Stir well to combine. Let sit for 15 to 30 minutes.
• Meanwhile, heat the oven to 350 degrees. Rub the sides of a 2-quart baking dish or gratin with the cut side of a garlic clove. Oil or butter the dish. Mince any remaining garlic from the halves you used to rub the bread and the dish. Break up the broccoli crowns into florets and steam for 4 minutes. Remove from the heat, drain and cut the florets into 1/2-inch slices, or chop coarsely.
• Heat 1 tablespoon of the olive oil over medium heat in a large skillet and add the minced garlic. Cook, stirring, until fragrant, about 30 seconds, and stir in 1 teaspoon of the thyme, the broccoli, and salt and freshly ground pepper to taste. Stir together for a minute, until the broccoli is nicely seasoned, and remove from the heat. Stir into the bread mixture.
• Scrape the bread mixture into the baking dish. If including tomatoes, scrape in half the bread mixture and layer half the tomatoes on top. Spread the remaining bread mixture over the tomatoes and top with the remaining tomatoes. Season the tomatoes with salt and pepper, sprinkle with the remaining thyme and drizzle on the remaining tablespoon of olive oil. Place in the oven and bake 50 minutes, until puffed, set and lightly browned. Remove from the oven and serve hot or warm.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C).
• Heat olive oil in a cast iron pan, and cook onion and rosemary in oil until onion is soft.
• Toss bread cubes with olive oil and onions. Exact measurement of bread is not necessary. Place in a well oiled, deep sided, 9 inch square pan. Toss with 1/2 cheese, and sprinkle remaining cheese over the top.
• Beat together milk, cream, and eggs. Pour over bread in pan. It is fine that the bread sticks out of the custard.
• Bake for 1 hour, or until browned and a knife inserted in the middle comes out clean (except for melted cheese).

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350°F Lightly grease a 13x9x2 baking dish.
• Whisk together milk, eggs, rosemary and salt and pepper to taste.
• Place bread in a bowl. Sprinkle with cheese. Drizzle over egg mixture and toss to be sure all of the bread is coated with egg. Let stand 5-10 minutes to soften.
• Pack mixture into prepared pan. Bake 20-35 minutes, until golden brown and springy to touch. Allow to cool briefly before serving.
