Classic Bread and Butter Pudding is a cozy dessert made with buttery bread, creamy vanilla custard, and sweet raisins, baked until golden.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 8 slices white bread, crusts removed and lightly toasted
  • 3 tablespoons unsalted butter, softened
  • 1/2 cup raisins
  • 3 large eggs
  • 2 cups whole milk
  • 1/2 cup heavy cream
  • 1/3 cup granulated sugar
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • A pinch of ground nutmeg

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Lightly grease a medium-sized baking dish.
  2. In a mixing bowl, whisk together the eggs, milk, cream, sugar, vanilla extract, cinnamon, and nutmeg until well combined.
  3. Butter the bread slices on one side and cut them in halves or triangles.
  4. Layer half the bread in the dish, butter side up, then sprinkle with half the raisins.
  5. Repeat with the remaining bread and raisins to create a second layer.
  6. Pour the custard mixture evenly over the bread, pressing down slightly to help it absorb.
  7. Let it soak for at least 15 minutes. For extra richness, refrigerate overnight before baking.
  8. Bake in the center of the oven for 35 to 40 minutes or until the top is golden and the custard is just set with a slight wobble.
  9. Cool for 5 to 10 minutes before serving. Optionally dust with powdered sugar or serve with cream.

Notes

  • For a richer flavor, use brioche or challah bread.
  • Add more raisins or other dried fruits if desired.
  • Serve warm for the best experience.
