Her is a bread pudding recipe that I get standing O’s for.

2 cups light cream
1/4 cup butter
2 eggs, slightly beaten
1/2 cup sugar
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1/4 teaspoon nutmeg
1/4 teaspoon salt
6 or more cups of brioche cubes
1/2 cup raisins, if desired
Whipped cream, for topping.

Soak bread in liquid mixture, fold in 1/2 cup raisin's.

Bake at 350 until a knife comes out clean.

Brioche is a pain to make, you can get it at the store it is expensive.

That looks very good. I make a similar one that calls for bourbon, but I use rum.

Thanks, and I will try yours after I finish my apple streusel cake tomorrow (have all the ingredients ready to go and pooped out), then my cheese pie with cherry pie filling topping, then key lime meringue pie, and the bread pudding recipe I saved from youtube by an Hispanic woman.

You don't use a water bath for yours?

I don't want raisins in mine. To make the one I want, you put a burnt sugar syrup in the bottom of an 9 X 13 pan. And I had to order some spices, stick cinnamon from Walmart, star anise from Amazon, and my daughter found me some whole cloves. It's an Hispanic woman's channel, made with evaporated milk. And I have 2 baguettes where the whole loaf dried out on the counter. One for the pudding rehydrated and the other for stuffing maybe.

I have so much lined up to do I will never get it all done.

But thanks for the recipe. I made a brioche back in 2012 when I was big into learning to bake bread but didn't like it. I like these and learned the 6 braid on youtube. They are too much work, too.

Too much crust but a Jewish recipe I used to make called for Challah bread. I tried to make baguettes but my yeast was bad. I got some fresh; now I probably should get some more fresh.

I don't think I will like the one with a spice tea (with the star anise) but my daughter wants me to make it. I dug out a nice roasting pan with a rack for the water bath. It does have some nutmeg in it, too.
