Vanilla Brioche bread pudding with sweetened condensed milk
Vanilla Brioche bread pudding with sweetened condensed milk
Traditional bread and butter pudding using brioche, and flavored with cinnamon and cardamom for flavor.
Ingredients
- 25 grams soft butter to grease the baking dish
- 14 slices brioche lower crust removed
- 60 grams soft butter
- 125 ml sultanas
- 12 extra large eggs
- 385 grams condensed milk approximately 1 can
- 187 ml fine granulated sugar approximately ¾ cup
- 1 litre milk divided
- 20 grams custard powder approximately 30 ml or 2 tablespoons mixed in 125ml of the milk
- 500 ml fresh cream
- 4 small pieces stick cinnamon
- 1.25 ml fine cardamom approximately ¼ teaspoon
- 5 ml vanilla extract approximately 1 teaspoon
- 1.25 ml vanilla seeds or paste approximately ¼ teaspoon
Instructions
- Heat the oven to 180 degrees Celcius or 160 fan / 350 F / Gas mark 4.
- Grease an ovenproof glass baking dish of 2 litre capacity with 25 grams butter. I used an oblong dish for the large one and a ramekin to make a smaller individual one.
- The brioche will have a soft top crust so only remove the harder bottom crust from all the slices and cut each one in half diagonally to make triangles.
- Spread each slice on one side only with a slick of the soft butter and arrange in the dish cut side up.
- Sprinkle the sultanas between the layers.
- In a large bowl add the eggs, condensed milk and sugar and beat for 5 minutes with a whisk until pale and creamy.
- Reserve 1/2 cup of milk and mix with the custard powder until smooth and free of lumps.
- Add the rest of the milk, the cream and the custard mixture to the egg mixture and whisk thoroughly for 2 minutes.
- Add the vanilla extract, vanilla seeds and cardamom and whisk lightly to combine.
- Scatter the stick cinnamon pieces evenly over the bread layers then ladle the egg mixture on carefully.
- Leave the bread pudding to sit unbaked for at least 45 minutes, and occasionally press down lightly to help the bread absorb the custard.
- Bake for 45-55 minutes, or until the bread is golden and the custard is set.
- Serve immediately with stewed dried fruit.
