Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 6 cups day-old bread (cubed)
- 1 cup mincemeat filling
- 2 cups whole milk
- 1 cup heavy cream
- 0.5 cup granulated sugar
- 4 large eggs
- 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
- 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 0.25 teaspoon ground nutmeg
- 0.5 cup brown sugar
- 0.5 cup all-purpose flour
- 4 tablespoons unsalted butter (cold, cubed)
- 0.25 cup chopped nuts (optional)
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease a 9x13-inch baking dish.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the bread cubes and mincemeat filling. Toss them gently to evenly distribute the mincemeat.
In another bowl, whisk together the milk, heavy cream, granulated sugar, eggs, vanilla extract, cinnamon, and nutmeg until smooth.
Pour the custard mixture over the bread and mincemeat mixture, ensuring the bread is evenly soaked. Let it sit for 10 minutes to absorb the liquid.
Transfer the bread mixture into the prepared baking dish, spreading it out evenly.
To make the streusel topping, combine brown sugar, flour, and cubed butter in a medium bowl. Use your fingers or a pastry cutter to work the butter into the dry ingredients until the texture resembles coarse crumbs.
Stir in the optional chopped nuts if using, then evenly sprinkle the streusel topping over the bread pudding.
Bake in the preheated oven for 40-45 minutes, or until the top is golden brown and a knife inserted into the center comes out clean.
Allow the bread pudding to cool for 10 minutes before serving. Enjoy warm with a drizzle of cream or a scoop of vanilla ice cream, if desired.
