I split the 1/2 gallon of milk into 1/4 cup milk and 1/4 cup half and half and added an extra egg yolk for and even creamier custardy pudding. Many recipes I’ve seen use a double boiler with precooked rice. The best way is too cool the rice in the milk. Don’t be shy about going a little longer than an hour but stir frequently! Scalded milk flavor is not good. I also like to add lemon peel to the simmer (remove before you cool the pudding).

I have used Brioche, Texas toast, and cinnamon swirl bread. I don't bother with heavy cream; I have used unsweetened vanilla almond milk, evaporated milk, skim milk, and there is a little difference but not much. My favorite bread is the cinnamon swirl!

I did not have enough cherries so I made the clafoutis with strawberries (sliced and floured), raspberries, and cherries (halved with the stones removed). This was a big breakfast hit and I’m sure I’ll be making it again and experimenting with more summer fruits

This is a great bass recipe I used brioche bread I added gingerbread spices, so to add with the molasses I had Ginger clove nutmeg cinnamon a little bit of allspice so it had a gingerbread flavor French toast it was amazing everyone loved it it was the hit of Christmas morning

Made it at least twice. Five stars!

I followed the recipe exactly other then all I had was some white bread. My wife loved it but I thought it was lacking a wow factor. Will make it again since she like it.

This recipe was fantastic. I made it for brunch. My whole family loved them.

I followed the recipe and found it to be too sweet for us. I would suggest using less molasses - and ensure you use light not dark. Cheers, and thanks for sharing

Great dough! The ratios for ingredients are near perfect as written and are easily halved, quartered, etc. I've made this a few times now, each time making some minor adjustments. Here is what I've settled on as to how I'll be making the dough from now on:

Great recipe. I substituted ground nutmeg for the ginger.

Have made this several times almost as written - used whole graim wheat bread and a few times forgot the cinnamon. It is delicious anytime of day.... ive even had this for dessert. I drizzled organic ginger syrup that I happened to have In my pantry on top with whipped cream over that.
