GINGERBREAD BREAD PUDDING

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees F & butter a 1 1/2 quart baking dish.
• Lay the gingerbread slices, overlapping, in the prepared dish, then sprinkle the dried cranberries over the slices.
• In a large bowl, whisk together the eggs, milk, heavy cream, granulated sugar, brown sugar, cinnamon, ginger, salt & vanilla extract, then pour this mixture over the gingerbread, gently pressing the pieces of cake into the custard, before setting the baking dish aside for 10 minutes.
• Set the bread pudding on a baking sheet & bake for 30 to 35 minutes or until it is puffed & golden.
• It can be served hot, at room temperature or cold.

GINGERBREAD SPICED BREAD PUDDING WITH BOURBON SAUCE

Steps:

• Place rack in the center of your oven and preheat to 350 degrees F. Arrange bread in a single layer on an ungreased baking sheet. Bake for 8 minutes or until lightly toasted. To bake a single bread pudding: Lightly spritz a 9×5-inch loaf pan with cooking spray.
• For the bourbon sauce: Place a deep mixing bowl, beaters, and the 1/3 cup evaporated milk in the freezer to chill for 20 minutes.
• In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the 3/4 cup evaporated milk, non-fat milk, eggs, brown sugar, molasses, bourbon, vanilla, RawSpiceBar's Gingerbread Spices and salt. Add bread cubes, ginger, pecans, and raisins. Let mixture stand 20 minutes, stirring the bread occasionally to ensure all cubes soak up the milk.
• To bake, fill pan nearly to the top, gently pressing to compact.
• Bake at 350 degrees F until deep golden brown on top and a knife inserted in the center comes out clean: 20-25 minutes for muffin cups; 30-35 minutes for ramekins or mini panettones; 43-47 minutes for a single loaf pan.
• To prepare sauce: beat evaporated milk in the chilled bowl on high for 1 to 2 minutes, until it is the consistency of whipped cream. Gradually add sugar, bourbon, and yogurt and beat for several minutes longer, until thickened. Serve over warm bread pudding.

APPLE GINGERBREAD BREAD PUDDING

Steps:

• Cut the gingerbread into cubes. Place in a generously buttered 8 x 8 x 2" pan. Top with the apple and currants. Set aside.
• Scald the milk, cream, and vanilla bean. Meanwhile, in a bowl, combine the eggs, yolks, sugar, cinnamon, and salt. Hand whip until mixed.
• Temper the egg mixture with the milk mixture (pour the hot milk mixture a little at a time into the egg mixture while whipping so as not to scramble the egg mixture). Strain through a sieve into your prepared pan.
• Press the gingerbread down to ensure complete coverage with the liquid. Let sit for 30 minutes or overnight.
• Preheat oven to 350°F
• Cover the pan with foil. Bake in a water bath for approximately 1 1/2 hours or until done. Remove the foil during the last 20 minutes of baking to brown the top. Baking times may vary with your oven. Cut into squares and serve hot.
• Serves 6 to 9.
