Apple Cider Donut Bread Pudding

Hey there! Today, I’m excited to share with you a cozy fall dessert recipe that will surely warm your heart and your taste buds. This Apple Cider Donut Bread Pudding is a delightful twist on a classic comfort food, perfect for a chilly autumn evening or a festive gathering with loved ones.

Ingredients:

  • 4 donuts (approximately 400g)
  • 4 eggs
  • 1 cup (240ml)
  • 1/2 cup (120ml)
  • 1/2 cup (100g)
  • 1 teaspoon
  • 1 teaspoon
  • 1/4 teaspoon

Kitchen Tools:

  • mixing bowl
  • whisk
  • baking dish
  • oven

To start, preheat your oven to 350°F (180°C). In a mixing bowl, whisk together the eggs, heavy cream, apple cider, brown sugar, cinnamon, vanilla extract, and salt until well combined.

Next, tear the day-old apple cider donuts into bite-sized pieces and gently fold them into the egg mixture, ensuring each piece is well coated. Let the mixture sit for about 10 minutes to allow the donuts to soak up the flavorful liquid.

Grease a baking dish with butter or cooking spray and pour the bread pudding mixture into it, spreading it out evenly. Bake in the preheated oven for 30-35 minutes, or until the top is golden brown and the pudding is set.

Once done, remove the bread pudding from the oven and let it cool slightly before serving. This dessert is best enjoyed warm, topped with a dollop of whipped cream or a drizzle of caramel sauce.

The cooked dish weighs approximately 850g and serves 6 people. Each serving is about 140g and has an estimated calorie count of 300.

One unique tip for this recipe is to sprinkle a bit of extra brown sugar on top of the bread pudding before baking. This creates a delicious caramelized crust that adds an extra layer of flavor and texture to the dish.

I hope you give this Apple Cider Donut Bread Pudding a try and make it your own with your favorite toppings or additions. Enjoy the warm, comforting flavors of fall in every bite!
