A slight twist on the traditional bread pudding. Almond flavor adds a really nice aroma. Ingredients:
3 tablespoons butter, melted |
12 slices day-old bread, cut into 1-inch cubes |
1/2 cup dark chocolate chips, or to taste (optional) |
1/4 cup sliced almonds, or to taste (optional) |
8 eggs, beaten |
3 cups milk |
1 1/2 cups white sugar |
2 teaspoons ground cinnamon |
2 teaspoons vanilla extract |
2 teaspoons almond extract |
1 teaspoon ground nutmeg |
Directions:
1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
2. Pour melted butter over bread cubes in a 9x13-inch baking dish; toss to coat. Stir chocolate chips and almonds into bread mixture.
3. Whisk eggs, milk, sugar, cinnamon, vanilla extract, almond extract, and nutmeg in a bowl; pour over bread mixture, lightly pressing bread with a spatula until egg mixture is absorbed.
4. Bake in the preheated oven until the top of the bread pudding springs back when lightly pressed, about 45 minutes.
