Well, for those who were here earlier when I asked my question about my bread pudding attempt?

Question

I'll have you know it turned out great!. Now, I have a new receipe to use throughout my life! My question now is how can I jazz it up a little? Dried cranberries and pears, I was thinking, or another kind of fruit?

Answer 1

I always sprinkle pistachio powder on my bread pudding. The bright green colour makes it look lovely and well, a bit christmassy if u wanna serve it for x mas. Sometimes i just chop up whatever dried fruit i have in the fridge like dates, cranberries and some unidentified dried berries that my father in law loves to buy and once in the fridge, he forgets about them...hehe...my point is, any dried fruit topping compliments a bread pudding, so go on....experiment! but do not forget your vanilla sauce and chocolate sauce accompaniment....good luck and merry x mas!

Answer 2

Any dried fruit will work. Try raspberry sauce: One package frozen raspberries, blend till pureed, put in pan add two 2TB spoons of corn starch cook till boiling, boil 2 mins.
custard sauce:
2cups cream
3egg yokes, beaten 1/2 cup sugar
3TB. corn starch
Blend sugar and corn starch together mix in cream and cook till boiling. boil 2 mins.. Take off heat and add a small amount to yoke to temper. Mix back into rest of cream mixture and bring back to biol and cook 2 mins.

Answer 3

Try adding melted chocolate before baking the bread pudding. You will love this!

Answer 4

Use Banana Bread or Cinnamon Bread...or add a glaze on top... Apples or Raisins would be a good fruit.
