One of my favorite desserts next to chocolate and red velvet cake is Bread Pudding. When I go out to eat, I am constantly searching for it on the menu. It’s hard for me to find bread pudding that really blows me away so over the last few months I have taken the time to learn how to make my own.
I love pineapples so once again I took a basic recipe and added pineapple chunks and golden raisins to it to take it to another level. This time used the basic bread pudding recipe found on Myrecipes.com and adapted it to my taste. Very rarely do I follow recipes exactly. I am always adding or changing something to make them my own.
I sauteed the pineapple chunks in butter and brown sugar and added in a handful of golden raisins. I let them cook until the pineapples were caramelized and the raisins were plump. Next I added them into the bread pudding mixture before baking.
I glazed the bread pudding with a Salted Caramel sauce after I took it out of the oven. I topped the bread pudding off with some whipped cream and a cherry. Serve this warm with some ice cream on top and that would be even better. This was Magnificent!!! I will be adding this to my holiday menu for years to come.
Enjoy~Allison
