Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 6 cups Day-old bread (brioche or challah preferred)
- 2 cups Milk
- 1 cup Heavy cream
- 1 cup Nutella
- 4 large Eggs
- 0.5 cup Granulated sugar
- 2 teaspoons Vanilla extract
- 0.25 teaspoon Salt
- 1 tablespoon Butter (for greasing the baking dish)
- 1 tablespoon Powdered sugar (optional, for garnish)
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a 9-inch square baking dish with butter and set aside.
Cut the day-old bread into 1-inch cubes and place them in a large mixing bowl.
In a medium saucepan over medium heat, combine the milk, heavy cream, and Nutella. Stir constantly until the Nutella is completely melted and the mixture is smooth. Do not let it come to a boil.
Remove the saucepan from heat and let the mixture cool slightly.
In a separate bowl, whisk together the eggs, granulated sugar, vanilla extract, and salt until well combined.
Slowly pour the slightly cooled Nutella mixture into the egg mixture, whisking constantly to prevent the eggs from scrambling.
Pour the custard mixture over the bread cubes in the large mixing bowl. Toss gently to ensure all the bread is well coated. Let it sit for 10 minutes to allow the bread to absorb the custard.
Pour the soaked bread mixture into the greased baking dish, spreading it out evenly.
Place the baking dish in the preheated oven and bake for 40-45 minutes, or until the bread pudding is set and the top is golden brown.
Remove from the oven and let it cool slightly before serving. Optionally, dust with powdered sugar and drizzle additional warmed Nutella over the top for garnish. Serve warm and enjoy!
