A comforting dessert that transforms leftover bread into a warm treat, complemented by a sweet vanilla sauce.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 6 cups stale bread, cubed
  • 2 cups milk
  • 1 cup heavy cream
  • 3/4 cup sugar
  • 4 large eggs
  • 1 tablespoon vanilla extract
  • 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • Butter (for greasing)
  • 1 cup heavy cream (for vanilla sauce)
  • 1/2 cup sugar (for vanilla sauce)
  • 1/4 cup unsalted butter (for vanilla sauce)
  • 1 tablespoon vanilla extract (for vanilla sauce)

Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a baking dish with butter.
  2. In a large bowl, combine the cubed stale bread, milk, cream, sugar, eggs, vanilla extract, cinnamon, and salt. Mix well.
  3. Pour the mixture into the greased baking dish, making sure the bread is soaked evenly.
  4. Bake for 35-40 minutes or until the top is golden brown and a knife inserted in the center comes out clean.
  5. While the bread pudding is baking, prepare the vanilla sauce by melting the butter in a saucepan over medium heat. Stir in the sugar and cream, bringing to a gentle simmer. Stir in vanilla extract and cook for another 2-3 minutes.
  6. Serve warm with the vanilla sauce drizzled over the top.

Notes

Use day-old bread for the best texture. Consider adding mix-ins like raisins or nuts for extra flavor.
