Ingredients
Scale
- 16 ounce loaf day-old sourdough bread cut into 1-inch cubes
- 7 large eggs
- 2 cups whole milk
- 1 cup heavy cream
- 1/4 cup spiced rum
- 1/2 cup granulated sugar
- 1/2 cup light brown sugar packed
- 2 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 1/2 cup raisins
- 1/2 cup unsalted butter (1 stick)
- 1/2 cup light brown sugar packed
- 1/4 cup heavy cream
- 2 tablespoons spiced rum
- Pinch of salt
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease a 9×13-inch baking dish.
- Spread the bread cubes evenly in the prepared baking dish and sprinkle the raisins over the bread.
- In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the eggs, whole milk, heavy cream, spiced rum, granulated sugar, light brown sugar, vanilla extract, cinnamon, and salt until fully combined.
- Pour the custard mixture evenly over the bread cubes, pressing down gently to ensure all the bread is soaked. Let it sit for 20-30 minutes to absorb the liquid.
- Cover the dish with aluminum foil and bake for 30 minutes. Remove the foil and bake for an additional 25-30 minutes, or until the top is golden brown and the center is set.
- While the bread pudding bakes, melt the butter in a small saucepan over medium heat. Stir in the brown sugar and cook until dissolved, about 2-3 minutes.
- Slowly whisk in the heavy cream, spiced rum, and a pinch of salt. Cook for another 2-3 minutes, stirring constantly, until the sauce thickens slightly, then remove from heat.
- Once the bread pudding is done, allow it to cool for 5-10 minutes. Drizzle the warm butter rum sauce over the top before serving.
