Description

Rich homemade eggnog turns this traditional bread pudding recipe into a delicious custard-like dessert. A sprinkle of icing sugar, a quick pour of maple syrup and a handful of walnuts top off this dish adding sweetness and crunch! Perfect as a dessert or even a nice New Year’s brunch!


Ingredients

Units Scale

1 loaf french bread
Butter, room temperature
3 cups homemade eggnog
1 cup 18% cream
1 cup 1% milk
5 eggs
4 egg yolks
1 cup sugar
Pinch of salt
2 tbsp Disaronno
1 tsp nutmeg
Garnish: icing sugar, chopped walnuts, maple syrup


Instructions

1. Slice bread into 1″ slices. Butter both sides of the bread. Cut into 1″ cubes and place cubes into a large baking dish.
2. In a large saucepan over medium heat, warm eggnog, cream and milk until bubbling (do not boil). Remove from heat.
3. In a large mixing bowl add eggs, egg yolk, sugar and salt. Using a hand mixer, beat until light and frothy.
4. Slowly pour the warm eggnog/milk mixture into the eggs, 1/2 cup at a time, whisking as you go (do this gradually so you don’t cook the eggs). Once incorporated mix in the Disaronno and the nutmeg.
5. Pour the custard base over the bread, and using the back of a large wooden spoon, push the cubes down until saturated. Allow the mixture to sit for 1 hour before baking.
6. Preheat oven to 375°F. Place casserole dish inside a larger casserole dish or roasting pan. Pour boiling water into the large pan until it reaches halfway up the baking dish. Bake for 40-45 minutes, or until the custard sets and the tops of the bread cubes are golden.
7. Carefully remove the roasting pan from the oven. Remove the baking dish from the roasting pan; set aside and allow to cool before serving.
8. Sprinkle with icing sugar, chopped walnuts, and a quick pour of maple syrup if desired.
