Mincemeat Streusel Bread Pudding Recipes

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C). Grease a 2-quart baking dish.
• In a mixing bowl, whisk 3 eggs, white sugar, 2 tablespoons of light brown sugar, 1/2 teaspoon of cinnamon, 1/4 cup of butter, and 3 cups of whole milk together, and gently stir in the bread cubes and raisins. Lightly spoon the mixture into the prepared baking dish.
• Bake in the preheated oven until browned and set in the middle, 50 to 55 minutes; cover the dish with foil after 30 minutes to prevent excessive browning. Let the pudding stand for 10 minutes before serving.
• For vanilla sauce, whisk 1/2 cup of light brown sugar, the flour, a pinch of cinnamon, 1 egg, 2 tablespoons of melted butter, 1 1/4 cups of whole milk,and salt together in a heavy saucepan until smooth. Heat over medium heat, whisking constantly, until thickened and the sauce coats the back of a spoon, 10 to 12 minutes. Stir in the vanilla extract. Pour sauce over warm bread pudding, or serve on the side in a bowl.

Steps:

• Preheat your oven to 200C/400F/Gas 6. You will need a 12" x 9" (30 x 23 cm) tin.
• Measure the flour and icing sugar into a mixing bowl and rub in the butter until the mixture resembles coarse breadcrumbs. Add sufficient water to mix to a firm dough. (You can use your processor.).
• Roll out the pastry to a rectangle slightly larger than the tin, the line the base and sides of the tin with pastry. Trim level with the top edges of the tin and patch any gaps if necessary. Spread the mincemeat evenly over the pastry base.
• For the topping:.
• Put the flour, semolina and caster sugar into a mixing bowl. Melt the butter, allow to cool slightly, pour onto the dry ingredients and mix together to form a dough. Chill for 30 minutes, as this will make it easier to grate.
• Grate the dough using a coarse grater and spread evenly over the mincemeat. Bake in a pre-heated oven for 20 - 25 minutes until golden brown.
• Cut into 16 evenly sized slices and serve warm with cream or brandy butter.

• In another bowl, sift together the flour, baking powder, soda and cinnamon.
• Pour the mincemeat mixture over the dry ingredients along with beaten eggs and nuts; stir until batter is well combined.
• Lightly grease a 2-quart ring mold or souffle dish and line the bottom with parchment paper, grease the paper.
• If using souffle dish, invert a greased glass in the centre of dish.
• Spoon batter evenly into prepared dish.
• Place an inverted dinner plate in the bottom of microwave and set the dish on the plate.
• Microwave at medium for 10 minutes.
• Rotate dish and microwave at high for 2 - 4 minutes more or until top is no longer moist.
• Let stand on counter top for 15 minutes.
• Run a knife around the outside of dish.
• Invert on to a serving plate and let cool completely.
• To serve, reheat pudding, uncovered at medium for 4 - 6 minutes or until warm.
• Accompany with Rum Eggnog Sauce.

Steps:

• Heat oven to 350 degrees. In a small saucepan over low heat, warm milk, butter, vanilla, sugar and salt. Continue cooking just until butter melts; cool. Meanwhile, butter a 4-to-6-cup baking dish and fill it with cubed bread.
• Add eggs to cooled milk mixture and whisk; pour mixture over bread. Bake for 30 to 45 minutes, or until custard is set but still a little wobbly and edges of bread have browned. Serve warm or at room temperature.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Grease a 9 x 5 x 3 inch loaf pan.
• Mix together the egg, oil, orange peel, juice, and mincemeat, blending well. Combine flour, sugar, baking powder, baking soda, and salt; add gradually to the egg mixture. Mix just until moist. Pour into prepared pan.
• Bake for 1 hour. Remove the loaf from the oven, and cool on a wire rack.

Steps:

• Beat eggs in a large bowl with an electric mixer on medium speed until foamy, 2 to 3 minutes. Beat in milk, cream, 1 1/2 cup sugar, rum, vanilla extract, and salt until mixture is thoroughly combined. Gently stir bread cubes into the egg mixture to coat. Let bread soak until the egg mixture has been absorbed, about 1 hour; stir occasionally.
• Dissolve 1 cup sugar with 1/2 cup water and vinegar in a heavy saucepan. Place over high heat and cook without stirring until the sugar mixture is dark amber in color, about 10 minutes. Remove from heat and let cool until it stops bubbling. Gradually stir 1/4 cup water into the syrup, about 1 tablespoon at a time, stirring until water is incorporated.
• Pour warm sauce into a 9x9-inch baking pan and swirl the pan so the caramel sauce coats the bottom and sides of the pan. Let caramel sauce set, about 15 minutes. Coat inside of baking dish and caramel layer with butter. Transfer soaked bread cubes and any remaining liquid into the baking dish over caramel sauce and gently press bread cubes together. Cover pan with parchment paper.
• Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
• Place baking pan into a large roasting pan and pour enough boiling water into the roasting pan to reach halfway up the sides of the baking pan.
• Bake in the preheated oven until a knife inserted into the middle of the pudding comes out clean, about 1 hour and 15 minutes. Let stand for 5 to 10 minutes. Run a knife around the outside of the pan and invert pudding and caramel sauce onto a serving platter.
