Caramel Bread Pudding

October 18, 2016 by maria 4 Comments

Caramel Bread Pudding is my second innings on Pudding. Caramel Bread Pudding always reminds me of Irani hotel and Parsi Joints. The yellow – brown caramel bread pudding in small bowls just looks amazing. Also once you see them you will be not able to resist until you have a bite of their pudding. Also bread pudding is my pets favorite too along with my family. So I tried this wonderful pudding. The outcome was awesome and delicious pudding 🙂

Caramel Bread Pudding

When I was in college my sister used to make caramel pudding. I remember I used to wait for her to finish and to pounce on the lovely pudding. The best part of caramel pudding is. It is made instantly also quite nutritious and healthy. It is a great way of introducing eggs and milk to your children’s diet. I couldn’t click with more styles and different presentations for the pudding. Because it got over as soon it was made.

The aroma of bread pudding comes great whilst making them. There are 3 ways of doing them. I have tried all the ways the best way is steam for 15 mins on a double boiler. Than bake for about 20 mins on convection mode for 180°C Or until skewer comes out almost clean.

Do add custard powder and beat again. Please beat with hand and don’t use electric beater for this pudding.

So I just kept this tin uncovered for about 20 mins on 180°C. The pudding was ready. It looked yummy with a great texture and taste.

    For the Caramel bread pudding, after baking and cooling should we put upside down before decorating?

      Yes you could do that and if the caramel is slightly thick just microwave for 30 secs in microwave and than serve as the liquid will spread evenly then ….
