#fallfoodfriday #cozydessert #breadpuddingwithvanillacreamsauce
There's something warm, comfy, & cozy about bread pudding.
It's just one of those old-fashioned desserts that is full of nostalgic goodness & warms both your body & spirit.
And it could not be easier.
It's also one of those recipes that you can tinker with a bit, adding or leaving out certain extra ingredients to make it just how you like it.

Here is the recipe that I *loosely followed (I made a bigger portion).

Old-Fashioned Bread Pudding with Vanilla Cream Sauce

Bread Pudding
1 (1-pound) loaf (4 cups) French bread, cubed
1/2 cup raisins
2 cups milk
1/4 cup butter
1/2 cup sugar
2 large eggs, slightly beaten
1 tablespoon vanilla extract
1/2 teaspoon ground nutmeg

Vanilla Cream Sauce

1/2 cup butter
1/2 cup sugar
1/2 cup firmly packed brown sugar
1/2 cup heavy whipping cream
1 tablespoon vanilla extract

Heat oven to 350°F. Grease 1 1/2-quart casserole; set aside.
Place bread cubes onto baking sheet. Bake 8-10 minutes or until toasted.
Combine toasted bread cubes and raisins in prepared casserole; set aside.
Combine milk and 1/4 cup butter in 1-quart saucepan.
Cook over medium heat 4-7 minutes or until butter is melted. Cool slightly.
Combine all remaining pudding ingredients in bowl; mix well.
Add milk mixture; mix well.
Pour milk mixture over bread cubes.
Bake 40-45 minutes or until set in center.

Meanwhile, combine all sauce ingredients except vanilla in 1-quart saucepan. Cook over medium heat, stirring occasionally, 5-8 minutes or until mixture thickens and comes to a full boil.
Carefully stir in 1 tablespoon vanilla.

Spoon warm pudding into individual dessert dishes; serve with sauce. Store refrigerated.
