Easy Pecan Pie Bread Pudding Recipes

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Lightly coat a 2-quart baking dish with cooking spray.
• Spread the bread pieces in a single layer on a baking sheet and bake until toasted and golden, tossing halfway through, about 15 minutes. Let cool.
• Whisk together the evaporated milk, milk, sugar, vanilla, eggs, nutmeg and a pinch of salt in a large bowl. Add the cooled bread cubes. Toss to combine and set aside until the bread soaks up most of the liquid, about 30 minutes.
• Stir the pecan pie pieces into the mixture and transfer to the prepared baking dish. Bake until the bread pudding is set and golden, 30 to 40 minutes. Let rest for a few minutes. Serve warm or at room temperature topped with a scoop of vanilla ice cream.

Steps:

• Cut the bread into cubes and let sit out about an hour to dry out a bit. Using day-old bread is perfect; the drier the bread cubes, the more yumminess they soak up!
• Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.
• In a medium bowl, mix the eggs until they are combined. Add the milk, sugar, and vanilla and stir until combined.
• Place the bread cubes in a baking pan and pour the milk and egg mixture over them.
• Melt butter in a small microwave-proof bowl. Stir in the brown sugar until dissolved. Stir in the pecans.
• Pour this mixture over the bread and egg mixture, and gently fold. Don't mix it in thoroughly, just fold so the yummy pecan mixture forms into clumps throughout the bread pudding.
• Bake for 45 to 55 minutes, or until the top is slightly brown. The center will still be a little jiggly.
• Allow to cool at least 20 minutes before serving. The egg mixture will continue to cook, and the bread will soak up more yumminess.

Steps:

• Heat oven to 350 degrees F. Spread bread cubes in single layer on 15x10-inch baking pan. Bake, stirring occasionally, 10 minutes or until cubes are toasted. Coat 13 x 9-inch baking dish with no-stick cooking spray.
• Beat eggs in large bowl with electric mixer on medium speed until fluffy. Blend in sweetened condensed milk, dark corn syrup, brown sugar, butter and vanilla. Stir in toasted bread cubes and 1 cup pecans until evenly moistened. Pour into prepared baking dish. Sprinkle with remaining pecans. Allow to stand 30 minutes.
• Bake 40 to 45 minutes or until golden brown around the edges. Cool 5 minutes. Serve warm or cooled with ice cream, syrup, caramel syrup or whipped topping, as desired.

Steps:

• Grease an 8"x8" baking pan with 1 tablespoon of butter. In a large mixing bowl mixing bowl, beat the eggs and add the half and half, and 1 cup of the brown sugar. Stir in the salt and nutmeg. Add the bread cubes and 1/2 cup of the pecan, and allow to sit for 20-30 minutes until the bread is completely soaked with the custard.
• Pour into the baking pan, sprinkle with the remaining pecans and brown sugar. Dot the top with 3 tablespoons butter broken into small pieces.
• Bake in a pre-heated 350 F oven for 30-40 mins, or until set and golden brown on top.
• This is great served warm with ice cream or a custard sauce. I like it cold for breakfast too!

Steps:

• Spray a microwave safe 2-quart square casserole dish with nonstick cooking spray. Place bread cubes in casserole; sprinkle in pecans, then pour melted butter over all. Toss lightly.
• Preheat oven to 425 degrees.
• Whisk together half and half, eggs, sugar, cinnamon and nutmeg.
• Pour evenly over bread cubes and let stand 5 minutes.
• Microwave on Medium (50% power) 10-12 minutes, until mixture is just beginning to set.
• Place in preheated oven 12-15 minutes until pudding is puffed and golden brown.
• Remove from oven to wire rack; let stand 15 minutes to cool slightly.
• Soften caramel topping in microwave to a pourable consistency; drizzle over warm bread pudding.
• To serve, cut into squares or spoon into dessert dishes.
• Serve, if desired, with whipped cream or thawed non-dairy whipped topping.
