Pumpkin Praline Stuffed Bread Pudding
Serving size: 6-8 people
Total Time: 1 hour and 15 minutes
INGREDIENTS
For the bread pudding
- 1 large loaf of brioche or any bread, torn into pieces (Emily uses 1 dozen donuts cut into fourths to make for a breakfast version, or a combo of both bread and donuts)
- ½ cup heavy cream
- 1½ cups half & half
- 1 15-ounce can pumpkin purée
- 1½ cups sugar
- ¼ cup melted butter
- 3 eggs
- 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
- 1 tablespoon pumpkin spice
- 1 teaspoon cinnamon
For the Praline Sauce
- 1 cup butter
- 1 cup heavy cream
- 1 cup brown sugar
- ½ cup chopped pecans
METHOD
- Preheat the oven to 350 degrees.
- Spray a 9″ x 13″ casserole dish with cooking spray and place the bread pieces into the dish.
- In a bowl, whisk together all the ingredients except for the praline sauce ingredients.
- Slowly pour the batter over the bread pieces in the baking dish. Using a spatula, fold the sauce around so all the bread is covered.
- Bake at 350 degrees for 1 hour.
- While the bread pudding is baking, make the praline sauce.
- In a saucepan over low heat, melt the butter; then stir in the brown sugar and cream.
- Bring mixture to a boil for 1 minute.
- Reduce heat to low and stir in the pecans. Simmer for about 5 minutes until the sauce thickens.
- Pour the sauce over the bread pudding.
- Let cool for at least 10 minutes before serving.
