Ingredients
- 8 cups french loaf cubed
- 2 cups half and half
- 15 ounce pure pumpkin
- 1 cup dark brown sugar lightly packed
- 4 large eggs lightly beaten
- 2 teaspoons pumpkin pie spice
- 2 teaspoons ground cinnamon
- 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
- ½ cup dried cranberries optional
- ¼ cup toasted chopped pecans optional
For the Caramel Sauce
- 1 ¼ cups dark brown sugar packed

Instructions
For Bread Pudding
- Preheat oven to 350°F, with rack on lower middle position. Lightly gerase a 9x11 glass baking dish. Set aside.
- Whisk half and half, pumpkin, dark brown sugar, eggs, pumpkin pie spice, cinnamon and vanilla extract in large bowl to blend. Fold in bread cubes. Transfer mixture to a lightly greased 9x11 glass baking dish.
- Sprinkle cranberries and pecans over the top evenly, if using. Let stand at least 15 minutes to allow bread to soak.
- Bake until toothpick inserted into center comes out clean, about 40 minutes. Let rest at room temperature until ready to serve - up to overnight, covered. Cover and chill if bread pudding will be sitting out longer than overnight.
For the Caramel Sauce
- Whisk brown sugar and butter in heavy medium saucepan over medium heat until butter melts. Whisk in cream and stir until sugar dissolves and sauce is smooth, about 3 minutes. Pour warm sauce over warm bread pudding. Serve warm.

- Pumpkin Bread Pudding is a great way to use up stale bread. However, if your bread is very fresh, you can cube it and let it sit out for a few hours to dry. This will help the bread soak up the pumpkin custard better.
- Caramel sauce can also be made the night before, but will need to be re-heated before drizzling onto the bread pudding.
- Feel free to substitute cranberries and pecans with any other add-ins. Alternatives include chocolate chips, white chocolate chips, or roasted pumpkin seeds.
- Also try serving this with homemade apple butter, vanilla bean ice cream or stabilized whipped cream!
