Choosing the Right Bread

The type of bread you use will have a big impact on the flavor and texture of your bread pudding.

Making the Custard

The custard is the key to a great bread pudding. It should be rich and creamy, with a slightly sweet flavor. To make the custard, you will need:

• 1 cup milk
• 1/2 cup heavy cream
• 1/4 cup sugar
• 1/4 cup flour
• 1/4 teaspoon salt
• 2 eggs
• 1 teaspoon vanilla extract

Instructions:

1. In a medium saucepan, whisk together the milk, heavy cream, sugar, flour, and salt. 2. Bring the mixture to a simmer over medium heat, stirring constantly. 3. Reduce the heat to low and simmer for 5 minutes, or until the mixture has thickened. 4. Remove the saucepan from the heat and stir in the eggs and vanilla extract.

Assembling the Bread Pudding

Once you have made the custard, it is time to assemble the bread pudding. To do this, you will need:
