Ingredients

Original recipe (1X) yields 8 servings

  • 2 ½ cups milk

  • 2 eggs, beaten

  • 3 tablespoons butter, melted

  • 2 tablespoons vanilla extract

  • 3/4 cup white sugar, divided

  • 1 (1 pound) loaf French bread, cut into 1-inch cubes

  • 1 cup chopped pecans

  • ½ cup butter

  • ½ cup heavy cream

  • ¼ cup whiskey

Directions

  1. Preheat the oven to 325 degrees F (165 degrees C). Lightly grease a 9x13-inch baking dish.

  2. Mix milk, eggs, 3 tablespoons melted butter, and vanilla together in a large bowl until well combined. Gradually add 1/4 cup sugar and mix thoroughly until sugar is dissolved.

  3. Place bread cubes into bottom of the prepared baking dish. Pour milk-egg mixture over top, fully saturating all bread. Sprinkle with pecans.

  4. Bake in the preheated oven until golden, about 1 hour.

  5. When bread pudding is almost finished, combine 1/2 cup white sugar, 1/2 cup butter, cream, and whiskey in a small saucepan over low heat. Cook, stirring constantly, until sauce is gently boiling.

  6. Remove bread pudding from the oven. Pour sauce over top and serve.
