Ingredients
- 1 loaf cinnamon swirl bread
- ⅔ cup Golden raisins
- ⅔ cup Sugar
- 2 cups Milk
- 1 cup Heavy whipping cream
- 2 teaspoons Vanilla extract
- 4 eggs (beaten)
- ½ teaspoon Cinnamon
PRALINE SAUCE
- 1 cup Unsalted butter (cubed)
- ¾ cup Chopped pecans
- 3 cups Light brown sugar
- ¾ cup Heavy whipping cream
- ¼ teaspoon Cinnamon
- 1 ¼ cups Sour cream
- ¾ teaspoon Vanilla extract
To Serve
- Vanilla ice cream
- Whipped cream
Instructions
- Prepare the oven by preheating it to 325°. Prepare a 13x9 baking dish by coating it heavily with butter on the bottom and sides. Make 1-inch pieces of cinnamon bread by tearing them.
- To prevent burning, turn crust-side down the bread and mix it with raisins. Spread evenly in the prepared baking dish.
- Mix together milk, heavy whipping cream, sugar, vanilla, eggs, and cinnamon in a bowl. Over the bread mixture, pour the liquid, soaking the bread thoroughly.
- Until the pudding is firm, bake it for 1 hour.
- The praline sauce is made by melting ½ cup of butter in a large saucepan. As the mixture will foam, use a large saucepan.
- Combine melted butter with pecans. Put the pot on the stove and bring it to a boil. Until the pecans begin to change color, bring them to a boil. Mix well after adding the butter, then remove from heat.
- Mix brown sugar, heavy whipping cream, and cinnamon together in a second saucepan. While stirring constantly, cook the mixture over low heat until it is well blended.
- Stir continuously as the heat is increased. You need to cook the candy until it reaches 230° (use a candy thermometer). Add the pecan mixture and stir well.
- Mix well the sour cream and vanilla. Turn off the heat.
- With a scoop of vanilla ice cream and a dollop of whipped cream, if desired, serve bread pudding topped with warm praline sauce.
