Brennans Garlic Bread Recipes

Steps:

• The secret to this wonderful tasting bread, is rubbing the outside of a loaf of bread with a piece of garlic that has been cut open lengthwise.
• Split loaf, and spread the melted butter over the cut sides. Sprinkle on the remaining ingredients. Finely chop the garlic cloves, and sprinkle those on top of the bread.
• Bake at 350ºF for about 8 to 10 minutes, or until nice and golden brown.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F.
• Add the parsley, basil, salt and garlic to a small food processor fitted with the blade attachment. Pulse the mixture until it's finely chopped. Add the butter and cheese and pulse to fully incorporate.
• Cut the baguette in half through the middle and open the 2 pieces like a book, cut-side up. Spread the butter mixture evenly on each of the cut sides. Sandwich the 2 sides together and cut the baguette in half. Wrap each half in foil and place them on a rimmed baking sheet. Bake for 10 minutes.
• Remove the baking sheet from the oven and turn the broiler to high. Carefully unwrap the foil packs and open the bread, exposing the buttered sides. Return the baking sheet to the oven and broil until the edges are toasted, about 1 minute. Cut each baguette quarter into 3 pieces and serve.

Steps:

• For The Bread Pudding:.
• Preheat oven to 350°F.
• Grease a 2-quart baking dish.
• Scatter the bread in the baking dish.
• Pour the scalded milk over the bread; set aside.
• Mix the eggs with the sugar.
• Stir in the remaining ingredients and pour the egg-and-sugar mixture over the bread-and-milk mixture.
• Although it doesn't state to do this with any bread pudding I usually press the bread down with a spatula to help the milk to be absorbed,cover and refrigerate for 30-60 minutes.
• Set the baking dish inside a slightly larger pan.
• Pour warm water into the larger pan about halfway up the sides of the bread pudding dish to make a "bain marie".
• Bake the bread pudding for about an hour, or until a knife inserted in the middle comes out clean.
• For the Whiskey sauce:.
• In a medium-size saucepan, heat the milk and the sugar until they almost come to a boil.
• Pour a small amount of the milk and sugar mixture into the egg yolks, whisking all the while.
• Gradually pour the egg mixture back into the saucepan, whisking constantly to prevent the eggs from scrambling.
• Blend the cornstarch with 1/4 cup cold water.
• Add to the saucepan.
• Bring the custard to a boil, whisking constantly for several minutes until it thickens.
• Remove from the heat.
• Stir in vanilla extract and whiskey.
• Strain through a fine-mesh sieve.
• Pour over bread pudding as desired.
• *Cook time does not reflect the refrigeration time*.

Steps:

• Combine bread, milk and cream. Beat eggs; add sugar and mix well. Stir in bread mixture and add vanilla, cinnamon and nutmeg. Stir in butter and raisins. Pour into buttered 2 quart baking dish, set in a pan of warm water about 1 inch deep.
• Bake in 350 degree oven for 1 hour or until knife inserted in center comes out clean.
• Whiskey Sauce.
• In a saucepan slightly beat egg yolks then add the next three ingredients and blend well. Cook over low heat until mixture comes to a boil. Blend cornstarch in water and stir into hot mixture. Continue cooking until thickened. Remove from heat and stir in brandy. Serve when cooled.

Steps:

• Stir the milk and vinegar together, and allow to stand until curdled, about 10 minutes.
• Preheat oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C). Grease a baking sheet. In a bowl, mix together the flour, sugar, baking soda, and salt.
• Gradually stir the soured milk into the flour mixture until the dough just comes together, and turn the dough out onto a well-floured surface. Knead a few times, and shape into a round. Place the dough onto the prepared baking sheet. With a sharp knife, cut an X shape into the top of the dough to release steam and help the bread keep its round shape.
• Bake in the preheated oven until golden brown, about 45 minutes.
