Grandma's Apple Bread Pudding Recipe

Ingredients

• 4 cups soft bread cubes
• 2 cups peeled and sliced apples
• 0.25 cup raisins
• 1.75 cups milk
• 1 cup brown sugar
• 0.25 cup margarine
• 2 large eggs, beaten
• 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
• 0.5 teaspoon vanilla extract
• 0.5 cup milk
• 0.5 cup margarine
• 0.25 cup white sugar
• 0.25 cup brown sugar
• 1 teaspoon vanilla extract

Instructions

1. Preheat your oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Lightly grease a 7x11-inch baking dish to prevent sticking.
2. For the bread pudding: In a large bowl, combine the bread, apples, and raisins. In a separate small saucepan, mix the milk, brown sugar, and butter over medium heat. Cook, stirring continuously, until the butter is completely melted. Pour this mixture evenly over the bread mixture in the bowl, ensuring everything is well coated. Transfer the bread mixture into the prepared baking dish.
3. In a small bowl, whisk together the eggs, cinnamon, and vanilla extract until well combined. Gently pour this egg mixture evenly over the bread mixture in the baking dish.
4. Bake in the preheated oven for 40 to 50 minutes, or until the center is firm and the apples are tender when pierced with a fork.
5. While the pudding is baking, prepare the vanilla sauce: In a saucepan, combine the milk, butter, white sugar, and brown sugar. Bring the mixture to a boil, then remove from the heat and stir in the vanilla extract. Serve the warm vanilla sauce generously over the apple bread pudding.
