Apple Pie Bread Pudding

Comforting bread pudding made with apple pie filling. Serve it hot and with some vanilla ice cream on top for the ultimate taste experience.

Ingredients:

8 cups bread, cubed

3 medium apples, peeled, cored and chopped

4 eggs

1 cup vanilla yogurt

1 cup milk

2 tsp cinnamon, divided

½ tsp nutmeg

½ c sugar + 2 Tbsp

½ cup raisins

Sauce

1 cup Unsalted Butter

1 cup Heavy Cream

1 cup Brown Sugar

Instructions:

Preheat oven to 350°

Spray a 9×13 baking dish with cooking spray.

In a large bowl, whisk together the yogurt, milk, eggs, 1 tsp cinnamon, nutmeg, and ½ cup sugar.

Stir in the apples, raisins, then gently fold in the bread cubes. Pour into the prepared pan.

In a small bowl, stir together 2 Tbsp sugar and 1 tsp cinnamon.
Sprinkle on top the bread pudding. Bake 30-40 minutes until puffed and golden brown.

While the bread pudding is baking, make the caramel sauce.
In a heavy saucepan over medium-low heat, stir together the butter, heavy cream, and brown sugar; bring to a boil.

Reduce heat to low, simmer until the sauce thickens, for about 5 minutes. Pour over bread pudding to serve. Top with vanilla ice cream.

If you can leave bread cubes out for a few hours so they get nice and dry. If not, just place them on a baking sheet and bake them at 350 for 10-15 minutes or until they’re dry but not toasted.

You can make this the night before and pop it in the oven for breakfast – it actually gets better if it sits overnight!

Enjoy!
