Raglan Road Irish Restaurant & Pub is the perfect place to enjoy Bread & Butter Pudding. Did you know that the dish originated in England in the early 11th and 12th centuries?
Ingredients
Makes 6
For the Bread & Butter Pudding
1/3 cup plus 1 tablespoon butter, softened
12 slices white sandwich bread, crusts trimmed
1/2 cup raisins, divided
1 1/3 cups whole milk
1 1/3 cups heavy cream
4 large eggs
1/2 cup sugar
1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
For the Sauce Anglaise
1 quart heavy cream
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
6 egg yolks
2 cups sugar
HOW TO PREPARE THE BREAD & BUTTER PUDDING
- Generously butter bottom and sides of 8×8-inch baking dish with 1 tablespoon butter.
- Butter both sides of bread slices. Cut into quarters to form triangles.
- Arrange single layer of bread in baking dish. Scatter 1/4 cup raisins over bread. Repeat with another layer of bread and raisins. Reserve enough bread to add a third layer just before baking. Gently press down bread and raisins. Set aside.
- Add milk and cream to saucepan and cook over medium heat until almost boiling. Remove from heat.
- Whisk together eggs, sugar, and cinnamon in a large heatproof bowl set over a pan of simmering water. Continue whisking until mixture thickens and whisk leaves a trail, about 5 to 7 minutes. Remove from heat and slowly add to cream-milk mixture, whisking constantly, until all ingredients are well combined.
- Pour about 1 1/2 cups of hot mixture over layered bread and raisins and press down gently with spatula. Allow to stand about 30 minutes, until bread soaks up all liquid.
- Preheat oven to 350°F.
- Pour the remaining hot mixture over the soaked bread and arrange the remaining bread on top. Press down firmly so that the custard comes halfway up the bread.
- Bake 30 to 35 minutes until the custard is just set and top is golden brown. Remove from oven and cool about 10 minutes.
HOW TO PREPARE THE SAUCE ANGLAISE
- Combine cream and vanilla extract in a heavy medium-size saucepan over medium heat. Bring to a simmer and remove from heat.
- Whisk together egg yolks and sugar in a small bowl.
- Gradually whisk egg yolk mixture into hot cream, a little at a time, to temper the sauce. Stir over low heat until sauce thickens and leaves a path on the back of a spoon when finger is drawn across, about 5 minutes.
- Remove from heat, strain into bowl, and cool to room temperature.
Serve the Bread & Butter Pudding with Sauce Anglaise or a caramel sauce.
