Easy Bread Pudding with Blackberries
Description
Easy Bread Pudding with Blackberries features cubes of country bread mixed evenly with blackberries in a baking dish, then soaked in a frothy custard made from cream, half-and-half, eggs, sugar, vanilla, cinnamon, nutmeg, and salt. Baking uncovered at 350 degrees F for over an hour develops a golden, bubbly surface while the interior stays soft and slightly wobbly. The pudding highlights the contrast of the bread’s tender crumb with the sweet, lightly spiced berries. This recipe benefits from refrigerating the custard-covered bread and berries for at least two hours to let the flavors meld and the bread fully absorb the custard. For serving, allow the pudding to cool about 20 minutes after baking to set slightly, making it easier to slice and enjoy warm.
Ingredients
- 1 pound country bread cut into 1-inch cubes (1 loaf, good
- 2 cups blackberry fresh or frozen
- 1 cup heavy cream
- 4 cups half-and-half or whole milk
- 8 egg large
- 2 1/2 cups sugar
- 1 tablespoon vanilla extract
- 1 teaspoon cinnamon
- 1/2 teaspoon nutmeg
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
Instructions
- Place the bread cubes and blackberries in a 9 x 13 baking dish and toss to distribute the blackberries evenly.
- In a large bowl, whisk the remaining ingredients together into a frothy custard base.
- Pour the custard over the bread cubes. Cover and refrigerate for at least 2 hours.
- Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Bake uncovered for 1 hour and 15 minutes, until golden and bubbly. The bread pudding should still be a little jiggly in the middle. All it to cool for 20 minutes before serving. (If the top starts to get too dark, place a piece of loose foil over it while baking.) Serve warm.
