Raspberry Bread Pudding Recipe

Raspberry Bread Pudding Recipe

1 1/2 loaves aged or day old,  white bread (I like

to use a heavy type of bread, usually 1 lb. loaves

would be standard.)

1 qt. heavy cream

3 C. sugar

1 egg

1 tsp. vanilla

5 C. raspberries, fresh or frozen (hers were fresh)

1 C. sugar

1/2 C. apple juice

In a large bowl mix the cream, sugar, egg and vanilla. 

Cut bread into 1 1/2 inch cubes and add to cream mixture,

coating the bread well.  Let stand 30 minutes, stirring every

5 minutes to allow cream to absorb.

Mix the raspberries, sugar and apple juice, stirring

until sugar is dissolved.

Layer a 9x13 inch baking pan 3/4 full with the bread mix

and pour fruit filling over the bread mix, spreading evenly.

Top with the remaining bread.  Bake 40 minutes at 375.

Serve warm topped with vanilla cream sauce.

(If you want it to cut into nice squares you can chill

it and then cut it into squares, then microwave it

for 20-25 seconds per piece and top with sauce.)

Vanilla Cream Sauce

1 1/3 C. butter

5 T. flour

3 C. heavy cream

1/2 tsp. salt

2 tsp vanilla

2/3 C. sugar

Melt butter in medium saucepan and add flour.  Stir

10 minutes until it has a nutty aroma, do not brown.  Add

salt, cream and sugar until mix is thick.  Remove from heat

and stir in vanilla.  Serve warm over the pudding.
