Instructions
Making the Bread Pudding
- Start by gathering and measuring all the bread pudding ingredients with measuring cups and spoons. Preheat your oven to 350°F.
- In a large measuring cup or mixing bowl with a pour spout, add the milk, eggs, melted butter, vanilla, cinnamon, nutmeg, salt, and brown sugar.
- Whisk everything together until well blended.
- Cut the bread slices into 2-inch squares.
- Keep cutting until you’ve turned the whole loaf into squares.
- Lightly spray a 9x13 baking dish with cooking spray.
- Place half of the bread cubes in the dish to form the bottom layer.
- Sprinkle raisins and almond slivers over that bread layer.
- Add the rest of the bread cubes on top.
- Finish with the remaining raisins and almond slivers.
- Pour the milk-and-egg mixture evenly over the bread. Bake for 50–55 minutes. For the last 15 minutes, cover loosely with foil.
Making the Pudding Sauce
- Gather and measure all the sauce ingredients.
- In a large microwave-safe bowl, melt the butter in the microwave.
- Once slightly cooled, stir in the milk, vanilla, and brown sugar.
- Pour the sauce over the baked bread pudding and let it soak in for about 5 minutes.
- Dust the top with powdered sugar.
- Slice, serve, and enjoy!
