Rich And Decadent Butter Pecan Bread Pudding Recipes

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350°. Whisk together the first 10 ingredients until blended. Gently stir in bread. Transfer to a greased 3-qt. or 13x9-in. baking dish. Sprinkle with brown sugar; let stand until bread is softened, about 15 minutes. Bake until puffed and a knife inserted in center comes out clean, 40-45 minutes., Meanwhile, for sauce, melt butter in a large heavy saucepan over medium heat. Add brown sugar; stir until dissolved. Gradually stir in cream. Bring to a boil. Reduce heat; simmer until thickened, 15-20 minutes, stirring constantly. Remove from heat; add vanilla, sea salt and baking soda, stirring well. Serve sauce with warm bread pudding.

Scald the milk; add butter and; cool slightly, add to the egg sugar mixture; mix well Add pralines (see recipe below). Pour over bread cubes. Bake in a 325 degree oven with pan setting in a pan of water for about 45 minutes, or until knife inserted comes out clean. While warm, top with rum sauce (see recipe below) and sprinkle with reserved pralines.
• 2. Rum Sauce: 1/2 c. brown sugar 1/2 c. white sugar Dash of salt 1/4 c. butter 1/2 c. light cream 1/2 c. corn syrup 1 t vanilla 3 T light run or ½ t rum extract Mix all ingredients except rum extract in sauce pan, cook over medium heat until it boils, stirring constantly. Cool for about 15 minutes, then add and add vanilla and rum.
• 3. Pralines ½ c plus 2 T sugar 2 T cream 1½ t. butter or margarine ¼ t. cinnamon 1/8 t. salt 1/2 t. vanilla 1 c. nut meats (I used pecans) Combine all ingredients except vanilla and nuts in a 1-qt. saucepan. Mix well and bring to boil over medium heat. Cook until 244 degrees (firm ball stage), stirring constantly. Remove from heat. Add vanilla and nuts. Continue stirring until coating grains on nuts. Spread on cookie sheet to cool. Add to bread pudding, reserving 3 T for topping.

Steps:

• Cut the bread into cubes and let sit out about an hour to dry out a bit. Using day-old bread is perfect; the drier the bread cubes, the more yumminess they soak up!
• Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.
• In a medium bowl, mix the eggs until they are combined. Add the milk, sugar, and vanilla and stir until combined.
• Place the bread cubes in a baking pan and pour the milk and egg mixture over them.
• Melt butter in a small microwave-proof bowl. Stir in the brown sugar until dissolved. Stir in the pecans.
• Pour this mixture over the bread and egg mixture, and gently fold. Don't mix it in thoroughly, just fold so the yummy pecan mixture forms into clumps throughout the bread pudding.
• Bake for 45 to 55 minutes, or until the top is slightly brown. The center will still be a little jiggly.
• Allow to cool at least 20 minutes before serving. The egg mixture will continue to cook, and the bread will soak up more yumminess.

Steps:

• Grease an 8"x8" baking pan with 1 tablespoon of butter. In a large mixing bowl mixing bowl, beat the eggs and add the half and half, and 1 cup of the brown sugar. Stir in the salt and nutmeg. Add the bread cubes and 1/2 cup of the pecan, and allow to sit for 20-30 minutes until the bread is completely soaked with the custard.
• Pour into the baking pan, sprinkle with the remaining pecans and brown sugar. Dot the top with 3 tablespoons butter broken into small pieces.
• Bake in a pre-heated 350 F oven for 30-40 mins, or until set and golden brown on top.
• This is great served warm with ice cream or a custard sauce. I like it cold for breakfast too!

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:

• Spray 5-quart oval slow cooker with cooking spray.
• Place bread and raisins in slow cooker.
• In medium bowl, beat milk, eggs, sugar, melted butter, cinnamon, vanilla, nutmeg and salt with whisk; pour over bread and raisins. Toss to evenly coat. Let stand 10 minutes. Toss again to make sure custard is evenly distributed.
• Cover and cook on Low heat setting 2 1/2 to 3 hours or until knife inserted near center comes out clean. Serve warm with whipped cream.

Steps:

• Prepare pudding according to package directions, using 3 cups of milk. Add sweetened condensed milk and fold in whipped topping.
• Line bottom and sides of a 9X13 inch dish with vanilla wafers. Cover wafers completely with sliced bananas. Overlap them a bit.
• Pour prepared pudding mixture over wafers and bananas. Chill and serve.
• If desired, layers can be made.

Steps:

• 1. I mix mine in the mornings, let sit until I finish dinner and pop it in the oven before we sit down to eat :)
• 2. In a large mixing bowl add eggs and slightly beat.
• 3. Add everything but the bread and pecans. Mix well until it is combined really good.
• 4. Fold in bread and half the pecans.
• 5. Let sit at room temperature for 1 hour mixing every so often to coat bread well. Cover and refrigerate until you are ready to bake. This recipe is best if left to sit for 6-8 hours or overnight. It gives the bread plenty of time to soak everything up!
• 6. Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Prepare a 9x13 baking dish with butter or cooking spray. (I use a little smaller size because I like a thicker bread pudding.) Use whatever size you want :)
• 7. Pour everything into your prepared baking dish.
• 8. Top with remaining pecans.
• 9. Pop in the oven and bake for 60 minutes.
• 10. RUM SAUCE: While bread pudding is baking, in a saucepan melt stick of butter.
• 11. Add sugar, dark rum or bourbon, and water. Mix well and simmer for 10 minutes stirring occasionally. Turn stove eye off and let sit to keep warm until bread pudding is finished.
• 12. Remove from oven.
• 13. While still hot, pour half the rum sauce over the top. Letting it get down between the pudding and sides of baking dish.
• 14. Let sit for 15 minutes and pour more sauce over it. You judge how much of the sauce you want - some or all it is up to you. I use it all, lol.
• 15. Enjoy! I like mine warm with vanilla ice cream and hubby eats his with fresh whipped topping.
