Instructions

For the bread pudding:

  • In a large bowl, combine all ingredients except the bread. Mixture should be moist but not soupy. Fold bread into mixture and stir until bread is thoroughly coated. Pour into greased 9-by-12-by12-inch glass baking dish. For individual mini bread puddings, spoon pudding mixture into medium greased muffin pans or ramekins.
  • Allow mixture to sit in the refrigerator for a minimum of two hours to allow the bread to soak up the custard.
  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Bake for one hour, or until the top is golden brown. Serve warm with rum sauce, ice cream or whipped cream.

For the rum sauce:

  • Cream butter and sugar.
  • Add vanilla.
  • Slowly stir in the egg, and then add the rum.
  • Heat and stir over low heat about 10 minutes until sugar is dissolved.
  • Serve warm over individual puddings.

Notes

The rum sauce can be made two days before your party and stored in the refrigerator. Simply reheat over low heat before serving.
