Simple Brioche Bread Pudding Recipe

Ingredients :

• 1 (1lb/450g) brioche loaf
• 4 large eggs
• 4 1/2 cups (1080g) milk
• 1/2 cup (100g) sugar
• 1 teaspoon cinnamon
• 1 tablespoon vanilla extract
• 1/4 teaspoon fine sea salt
• 1 tablespoon butter for greasing the form

Instructions :

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit (180 degrees Celsius) or Gas Mark 4 (if you have a convection or fan oven, reduce the temperature by approximately 20 degrees or follow the instructions provided by the manufacturer).
• Apply butter to a 9-inch by 13-inch (23-inch by 33-centimeter) oval baking dish.
  Cubes of the brioche, approximately one inch (3 centimeters) in size, should be added to the baking dish.

• In a large bowl, combine all of the remaining ingredients by whisking them together or using an electric mixer. These include milk, sugar, cinnamon, vanilla, and salt.
• To prepare the baking dish, pour the custard into it. Make sure that the custard (a mixture of milk and eggs) is evenly distributed across all sides of the bread cubes by moving them around and slightly pressing them in.
• Almost all of the brioche cubes should be covered by the mixture, but the points of the cubes should be elevated above the milk mixture. This will allow them to crisp up really well.

• It is recommended that you bake the pudding for around forty minutes, or until the custard is firm and not jiggly, and the pudding is golden and crispy on top.
• You may measure the temperature of the bake to ensure that it is baked through; the temperature in the middle of the pudding should be 160 degrees Fahrenheit or 71 degrees Celsius.

Storage and reheating instructions :

• When reheated, this dish is quite tasty. You have the option of reheating it in the microwave or in the oven. This breakfast is perfect for preparing ahead of time.
• Put the baking dish in a cold oven and set the temperature to 350 degrees Fahrenheit or 180 degrees Celsius. Bake it for around ten to fifteen minutes, or until it is warm.

• In addition, it freezes rather nicely. It can be frozen for up to three months if it is placed in containers that are sealed. Allow to defrost in the refrigerator, then reheat in the oven.
• You might even bake it after it has been taken out of the freezer.

• Prepare ahead of time: This dish is also ideal for preparing ahead of time! If you want to bake it in the morning, you can prepare it the night before, then let it sit in the refrigerator for the entire night.

What to serve it with:

• There is nothing more than a sprinkling of powdered sugar and a drizzle of maple syrup, and it is quite tasty on its own!
• For breakfast, I prefer to serve it with plain yogurt, fresh berries, and either apple sauce or strawberry sauce. I also like to serve it with grapes.
