If you’re in need of comfort food that is slightly sweet and completely delicious, this apple bread pudding recipe is calling your name.
What you need (for one 8 inch square pan):
- 6 slices day-old bread (I used Sprouted Multigrain & Seed bread from Whole Foods)
- 2 tablespoons butter, melted
- 1 box (or 1 oz) raisins
- 3 eggs, beaten
- 2 cups milk
- 3/4 white sugar
- 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 cup sliced apples
For the Vanilla Sauce:
- 1/6 cup sugar
- 1 tablespoon cornstarch
- 1/8 teaspoon salt
- 1 – 1/3 cup water
- 1.5 tablespoons butter
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1/8 teaspoon cinnamon
- Preheat the oven to 350 degrees.
- Slice the bread into cubes.
- In a large mixing bowl, mix together the milk, eggs, sugar, butter, cinnamon and vanilla.
- Add the sliced bread cubes, sliced apples and raisins into the egg mixture. Slightly toss so that the bread cubes are coated.
- Pour the bread and egg mixture into a well-greased 8-inch square pan. With a fork, slightly push down on the bread and apples so that they are somewhat covered by the egg mixture.
- Bake in preheated oven for 40 minutes.
- While the bread pudding is baking, combine the sugar, cornstarch and salt in a saucepan.
- Stir in the water until the mixture is smooth.
- Bring to a slight boil over medium heat and stir for 2 minutes or until thickened.
- Remove from heat. Stir in the butter, vanilla and nutmeg. Serve with warm bread pudding.
Happy eating! :)
