Comments: The entire family will love this delicious bread pudding and your guests will think you spent hours in the kitchen making it. Great for a quick and easy Thanksgiving dessert. |
Ingredients: ![]() 1/2 pound french bread, cut into 1-inch cubes (italian, egg or sourdough bread could also be used) about 10 cups 1/2 cup coarsely chopped pecans 2 tablespoons butter or margarine, melted 1 quart (4 cups) half-and-half, or milk 1/2 cup firmly packed brown sugar 6 eggs 1 tablespoon ground cinnamon 1 1/2 teaspoons ground nutmeg 1/2 cup store-bought caramel topping Whipped cream, or non-dairy whipped topping (optional) |
Instructions: 1. Spray a microwave safe 2-quart square casserole dish with nonstick cooking spray. Place bread cubes in casserole; sprinkle in pecans, then pour melted butter over all. Toss lightly. 2. Preheat oven to 425°F (220 C). Whisk together half and half, eggs, sugar, cinnamon and nutmeg. Pour evenly over bread cubes and let stand 5 minutes. Microwave on Medium (50% power) 10-12 minutes, until mixture is just beginning to set. 3. Place in preheated oven 12-15 minutes until pudding is puffed and golden brown. Remove from oven to wire rack; let stand 15 minutes to cool slightly. Soften caramel topping in microwave to a pourable consistency; drizzle over warm bread pudding. To serve, cut into squares or spoon into dessert dishes. Serve, if desired, with whipped cream or thawed non-dairy whipped topping. Makes 8 servings. |

It looked beautiful... I made it for thanksgiving and nobody liked it. They said it needed to be more sweeter. I still had 3/4 of the dish leftover.
