Raspberry Bread Pudding

I'm back! I went back and forth about moving this blog but ultimately decided this was the best place to keep everything. I just need to get back in the habit of doing it. So here we are. This was a yummy recipe I found and did at Christmas. It was delicious and rich. I've never had bread pudding before but this was so good.

Ingredients
  • 1½ loaves aged, white bread
  • 1 qt. heavy cream
  • 3 C. sugar
  • 1 egg
  • 1 tsp. vanilla
  • 5 C. raspberries, fresh or frozen
  • 1 C. sugar
  • ½ C. apple juice
VANILLA CREAM SAUCE
  • 1⅓ C. butter
  • 5 T. flour
  • 3 C. heavy cream
  • ½ tsp. salt
  • 2 tsp vanilla
  • ⅔ C. sugar
 
Instructions
  1. In a large bowl, combine cream, sugar, egg and vanilla and beat until well combined.
  2. Cut bread into 1½ inch cubes and add to cream mixture, coating the bread well.
  3. Let bread sit in cream mixture for 30 minutes, stirring every 5 minutes to allow cream to absorb.
  4. After mixture has absorbed for 30 minutes, mix the raspberries, sugar and apple juice. Stir until sugar is dissolved.
  5. Layer a 9×13 inch baking pan ¾ full with the bread mix and pour fruit filling over the bread mix, spreading evenly.
  6. Top with the remaining bread.
  7. Bake 40 minutes at 375 degrees F.
  8. Serve warm topped with vanilla cream sauce.
  9. If you are looking for nice square pieces, chill before slicing.
VANILLA CREAM SAUCE
  1. Melt butter in medium saucepan and add flour. Stir 10 minutes until it has a nutty aroma, but make sure not to brown. Add salt, cream and sugar and stir until mixture becomes thick. Remove from heat and stir in vanilla.
  2. Serve warm over the pudding.
