How to cook deliciously - Bread Pudding

1 . Stage

Soak the raisins: In a small bowl, combine the raisins with 1/4 cup bourbon. Cover and soak for 1 to 2 hours. The raisins should soak up most of the bourbon in this time (there may be some bourbon left in the bowl when they’re done soaking).

2 . Stage

Preheat the oven: Preheat the oven to 350°F.

3 . Stage

Soak the bread in milk: Place milk in a large mixing bowl and add the cubed bread. Press the bread into the milk with your hands until the bread is completely saturated (the bread may not absorb all the milk).

4 . Stage

Add the egg mixture: In a separate bowl, whisk the eggs, then whisk in the sugar, vanilla, allspice, and cinnamon. Pour over the bread and milk mixture. Add the bourbon-soaked raisins. Stir gently to combine.

5 . Stage

Transfer to the pan and bake: Pour the melted butter into the bottom of a 9x13 baking pan. Coat the bottom and the sides of the pan well with the butter. Pour the bread milk and egg mixture into the baking pan. Bake at 350°F for 35 to 45 minutes, until the liquid has set. The pudding is done when the edges start getting a bit brown and pull away from the edge of the pan.

6 . Stage

Make the bourbon sauce: While the bread pudding is cooking make the bourbon sauce. Melt the butter in a medium saucepan on low heat. Add the sugar and egg and whisk to blend well. Slowly cook over low heat, stirring constantly, until the mixture thickens enough to coat the back of a spoon, then remove from heat. Do not allow the mixture to simmer or the sauce will curdle. (By the way, if your sauce curdles, just take it off the heat and blend it smooth in a blender.) Whisk in bourbon to taste. Whisk again before serving. The sauce should be soft, creamy, and smooth.

7 . Stage

Serve: Serve the bread pudding with bourbon sauce on the side; pour on to taste. Bread pudding is best served right away after it's finished baking. However, leftovers can be kept for up to 5 days refrigerated and can be reheated in the microwave. To reheat , warm individual portions in 1-minute bursts in the microwave until warmed through. The sauce can be drizzled over top and reheated along with the individual slice. We do not recommend freezing bread pudding. Did you love the recipe? Give us some stars and leave a comment below!
