Bread pudding

Bread pudding is one of my favorite comfort desserts! I have been craving it for a while now, so I finally got down to making it =)
Here's the recipe (really easy) to make a 8-inch square pan of moist bread pudding!

Ingredients

  1. 6 slices of bread (stale bread preferred)
  2. 1/2 cup raisins
  3. 4 eggs, beaten
  4. 2 cups of milk
  5. 2 tablespoons of melted butter
  6. 3/4 cup of sugar (I like to do a mix of white and brown sugar)
  7. 1 tablespoon of vanilla extract
  8. 3/4 tablespoon of ground cinnamon
  9. 1/4 tablespoon of nutmeg
Instructions
  1. Heat up the oven to 350 F, or 175  C.
  2. Cut the crusts off the bread, and tear the bread into big chunks.
  3. Lay the bread and crusts loosely in the pan. (See first photo; I also line my pan with parchment paper to minimize the amount of washing I have to do afterward)
  4. Sprinkle raisins amidst the bread.
  5. Combine all the remaining ingredients in a bowl, and mix well.
  6. Pour the egg mixture onto the bread. 
  7. Make sure that the bread soaks up the egg mixture, using a fork to press lightly on the bread. (see second photo)
  8. Put the pudding into the oven, and let it bake for 45 minutes, or until the top springs back when lightly tapped. (see third photo)

Ready to eat! Enjoy!
