Description
An Amazing Ultimate Recipe for Blueberry Bread Pudding
Ingredients
Scale
- 6 cups day-old bread (such as brioche or challah), cubed
- 2 cups fresh blueberries
- 4 large eggs
- 2 cups whole milk
- 1 cup granulated sugar
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- ¼ teaspoon salt
- ½ cup unsalted butter, melted
- Powdered sugar, for dusting (optional)
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a 9×13 inch baking dish with butter or cooking spray.
- Prepare Bread: Place the cubed bread in a large mixing bowl. If you’re using fresh bread, consider toasting it lightly to prevent it from becoming too soggy.
- Add Blueberries: Gently fold in the fresh blueberries with the bread cubes, ensuring even distribution.
- Mix Custard: In another bowl, whisk together the eggs, milk, granulated sugar, vanilla extract, ground cinnamon, and salt until well combined.
- Combine Mixtures: Pour the custard mixture over the bread and blueberries, pressing down gently to ensure all the bread is soaked.
- Add Butter: Drizzle the melted butter over the top of the mixture for added richness.
- Bake: Transfer the mixture to the prepared baking dish. Bake in the preheated oven for 45-50 minutes, or until the top is golden brown and a knife inserted into the center comes out clean.
- Cool: Remove from the oven and let it cool for about 10-15 minutes before serving. This allows the pudding to set up slightly for easier slicing.
- Dust with Powdered Sugar: For an elegant finish, dust the top with powdered sugar just before serving.
