Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 8 cups Day-old bread (French or sourdough)
- 2 cups Cooked turkey, shredded or diced
- 2 cups Swiss cheese, shredded
- 2 cups Whole milk
- 1 cup Heavy cream
- 4 Large eggs
- 2 tablespoons Unsalted butter, melted
- 1 tablespoon Dijon mustard
- 2 tablespoons Fresh parsley, chopped
- 1 teaspoon Salt
- 0.5 teaspoons Black pepper
- 0.5 teaspoon Garlic powder
- 0.5 teaspoon Onion powder
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a 9x13-inch baking dish with cooking spray or butter.
Cut the day-old bread into 1-inch cubes and spread them evenly in the prepared baking dish.
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the whole milk, heavy cream, eggs, melted butter, Dijon mustard, salt, black pepper, garlic powder, and onion powder until well combined.
Stir in the chopped parsley, shredded turkey, and 1.5 cups of the shredded Swiss cheese, reserving 0.5 cup for the topping.
Pour the milk and egg mixture evenly over the bread cubes in the baking dish. Press the bread down gently with a spatula to make sure it fully absorbs the liquid.
Sprinkle the reserved 0.5 cup of Swiss cheese evenly over the top of the bread pudding.
Cover the dish with aluminum foil and bake in the preheated oven for 30 minutes.
Remove the foil and continue baking for an additional 20 minutes, or until the top is golden brown and the pudding is set.
Remove the bread pudding from the oven and let it cool for 5-10 minutes before serving.
Garnish with additional chopped parsley if desired, and serve warm.
