Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 0.5 cup Raisins
- 0.25 cup Dark rum
- 2 medium Apple (peeled, cored, and diced)
- 6 cups Day-old bread (cut into 1-inch cubes)
- 2 cups Whole milk
- 0.5 cup Heavy cream
- 0.75 cup Granulated sugar
- 4 Large eggs
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
- 1 teaspoon Ground cinnamon
- 0.25 teaspoon Salt
- 1 tablespoon Butter (for greasing the dish)
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a 9x9-inch baking dish with butter and set aside.
In a small bowl, combine the raisins and dark rum. Let them soak for at least 15 minutes while you prepare the other ingredients.
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the eggs, sugar, vanilla extract, cinnamon, and salt until well combined.
Add the milk and heavy cream to the egg mixture. Whisk until fully incorporated.
Fold the bread cubes, diced apples, and soaked raisins (including any remaining rum) into the custard mixture. Stir gently to ensure the bread is evenly coated.
Pour the mixture into the greased baking dish, spreading it out evenly.
Let the bread mixture sit for about 10 minutes to allow the custard to absorb into the bread.
Place the baking dish in the preheated oven and bake for 45-50 minutes, or until the pudding is set and the top is golden brown.
Remove the dish from the oven and allow it to cool for 10-15 minutes before serving.
Serve warm, optionally with a drizzle of caramel sauce or a scoop of vanilla ice cream.
