Irish bread pudding
Irish bread pudding is a traditional dessert made with bread, sugar, eggs, milk, and spices like cinnamon and nutmeg. It's a delicious and comforting treat that is often served with a warm custard sauce or a scoop of vanilla ice cream.
Ingredients
- 6 cups stale bread cubed, (such as white or brioche)
- 1/2 cup raisins or currants
- 3 cups milk
- 3 large eggs
- 1/2 cup sugar
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 teaspoon cinnamon
- 1/4 teaspoon nutmeg
- Butter for greasing the baking dish
- Whiskey or Irish cream for flavor (about 2-3 tablespoons) optional
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and lightly grease a baking dish with butter.
- In a large bowl, combine the cubed bread and raisins or currants.
- In a separate bowl, whisk together the milk, eggs, sugar, vanilla extract, cinnamon, nutmeg, and optional whiskey or Irish cream.
- Pour the milk mixture over the bread and toss gently to coat. Let it sit for about 15-20 minutes to allow the bread to soak up the liquid.
- Transfer the bread mixture to the greased baking dish and spread it out evenly.
- Bake in the preheated oven for about 45-50 minutes, or until the pudding is set and golden brown on top.
- Serve warm with a drizzle of custard sauce, whipped cream, or ice cream if desired.
- Enjoy!
