Sally Sibthorpe's bread pudding, which features apples and walnuts, uses a unique combination of cinnamon and butterscotch chips to create a wonderful flavor. It's perfect for chilly winter mornings in her town of Shelby Township, Michigan. Ingredients:
1/4 cup butter, cubed |
2 cups chopped peeled tart apples |
1/3 cup packed brown sugar |
8 cups cubed french bread |
1/2 cup butterscotch chips |
1/2 cup cinnamon baking chips |
1/2 cup chopped walnuts |
4 eggs |
3 cups half-and-half cream |
1 teaspoon vanilla extract |
additional cinnamon baking chips, melted, optional |
Directions:
1. In a large skillet, melt butter. Stir in apples and brown sugar. Cook over medium heat for 6-7 minutes or until apples are tender, stirring occasionally.
2. Place bread cubes in a greased 13-in. x 9-in. baking dish. Add the apple mixture, chips and walnuts; toss to coat. In a large bowl, whisk the eggs, cream and vanilla; pour over bread mixture.
3. Bake at 350° for 40-45 minutes or until a knife inserted near the center comes out clean. Drizzle with melted cinnamon chips if desired. Serve warm. Refrigerate leftovers. Yield: 12 servings.
