And I use a high ratio of eggs to milk for my bread pudding so if you think 6 eggs for 1 1/2 cup milk, 1 cup sugar, 1 tsp. cinnamon, 1 tsp. vanilla, 1/2 tsp. nutmeg, whisk together.... and then break up or cut up enough stale or dry bread to soak up the liquid. I keep adding bread until there's no puddles of custard left. I like my bread pudding on the dry side. <br /><br />Bake in casserole pan that's set in a larger pan (I use a big frying pan with 1 inch or so of water in it) at 350 degrees for about 40 minutes to 50 minutes...<br /><br />Until it's the dryness you want.<br /><br />The pan of water beneath it keep the bottom and sides from getting browned and keeps the pudding moist while you're drying it out by cooking it. :)<br /><br />It makes the oven "humid".Ruth Logan Hernehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11550734775151341968noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7945786327884906788.post-65955346846449421042018-10-04T20:50:26.095-04:002018-10-04T20:50:26.095-04:00Oh man, failure is my spice of life!
