Bread Pudding With A French Flair Recipe
Bread Pudding With A French Flair Recipe
Ingredients:
1 tsp of vanilla
1 c of sugar
2 whole egg yolks
5 eggs
3.5 c of milk
1 can of cherries (canned); pitted
4 slices of bread (white)
1/2 c of sugar
4 whole egg yolks
1/2 tsp of vanilla
1 c of cream (heavy)
1 c of milk
Instructions:
First, prepare the vanilla flavored sauce. To do this, boil one cup of milk and the cream plus one half teaspoon of vanilla. When bubbles are seen formed at the edges, you may turn off the heat and set it aside.
Meanwhile, beat the yolks using your electric egg beater on a double boiler. Slowly add the one half cup of sugar. When airy peaks have formed, fold milk mixture in.
Continue heating the double boiler until the mixture is thick enough to coat a metal spatula, this would take about fifteen minutes.
Afterwards, decant to one bowl and place inside the fridge for two hours. Preset oven 350 degrees F. Remove bread crusts then cut diagonally in two.
Drain the cherries and place all of them inside a greased baking pan. Layer the slices of bread on over cherries. Afterwards, make the custard. Heat up milk ’till bubbly.
Turn off heat and using a separate bowl whisk up the eggs then one egg yolk until it is foamy and light.
Slowly add two tablespoons of sugar and beat thoroughly before adding another two tablespoons. When all sugar has been added, add the vanilla. Mix well then decant inside the baking pan.
Set this baking pan inside a larger baking pan then pour in heated water inside the large baking pan until it coats up one inch up of your smaller baking pan.
Bake without cover for fifty minutes until set. Transfer to a wire rack. Slice into serving squares then transfer each slice to a serving plate and drizzle the cooled vanilla flavored sauce atop. Good for eight persons.
As a variation, you can dust sugar cinnamon over pudding just prior to baking.
