Introduction

Bread pudding can be as simple or as elegant as you want, with a few minor changes in bread type and other ingredients. If using a sweet bread, such as raisin bread or leftover cinnamon rolls,reduce the sugar by a couple of tablespoons. This is a classic southern bread pudding.

Ingredients

1 cup half_and_half
3 Tbsps melted butter
1 1/4 cups whole milk
5 large eggs
3/4 to 1 cup granulated_sugar
Pinch salt
2 tsps vanilla_extract
1 tsp ground_cinnamon
Few gratings fresh nutmeg or 1/8 tsp ground
1 cup raisins (optional)
About 8 thick (1 inch) slices of dry french bread ( I slice mine diagionally and let it dry overnight)
Soft butter for greasing the pan.

Directions
Step: 1

Heavily butter a deep oblong baking dish. Arrange bread in a single layer over the bottom of the pan. In a large bowl whisk the eggs, sugar and spices. Melt the 3 Tbsps butter and cool slightly before adding to the egg mixture.Add the milk and half and half and blend well.

Step: 2Add the raisins and pour over the bread.Press down the bread so that it absorbs as much liguid as possible Place the pan in the refrigerator for 1 hour or overnight.
Step: 3Heat oven to 325 degrees. Place the pan in the oven and bake for 45 minutes or until a knife inserted in the center comes out clean. Serve warm or cold with a drizzle of custard or rum sauce, cream or whipped cream. The Praline sauce is great on bread pudding for a really rich dessert.
