Brown Butter Toffee Bread Pudding: An Incredible Ultimate Recipe


  • Author: Chef Ethan Sam
  • Total Time: 30 minute

Ingredients

– 6 cups of stale bread, cubed (such as brioche or challah)
– 1 cup of brown sugar
– 4 large eggs
– 2 cups of whole milk
– 1 cup of heavy cream
– ½ cup of unsalted butter (for browning)
– 1 teaspoon of vanilla extract
– 1 teaspoon of ground cinnamon
– ½ teaspoon of salt
– 1 cup of toffee bits
– Extra toffee bits for topping (optional)


Instructions

Creating Brown Butter Toffee Bread Pudding can be an enjoyable process if you follow these simple steps:

1. Preheat the Oven: Start by preheating your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a 9×13-inch baking dish with butter or cooking spray.

2. Brown the Butter: In a medium saucepan, melt the unsalted butter over medium heat. Continue cooking, stirring frequently, until the butter turns golden brown and develops a nutty aroma. Remove from heat and allow it to cool slightly.

3. Prepare the Custard Mixture: In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the brown sugar, eggs, milk, heavy cream, vanilla extract, ground cinnamon, and salt until well combined.

4. Combine Ingredients: Slowly pour the browned butter into the custard mixture, whisking continuously to incorporate.

5. Add Bread: Gently fold in the cubed stale bread, ensuring each piece is coated in the custard mixture. Allow the mixture to sit for about 10-15 minutes, letting the bread absorb the liquid.

6. Add Toffee Bits: Stir in the toffee bits, distributing them evenly throughout the mixture.

7. Transfer to Baking Dish: Pour the bread pudding mixture into the prepared baking dish, spreading it evenly.

8. Bake: Place the dish in the preheated oven and bake for 45-50 minutes or until the top is golden brown and the custard is set.

9. Cool: Remove the bread pudding from the oven and let it cool for 10-15 minutes before serving.

10. Serve: For an extra touch, consider drizzling caramel sauce over the top before serving or sprinkling additional toffee bits for crunch.

These steps will guide you in creating this incredible dessert effortlessly.
