Ingredients
- 4 tablespoons unsalted butter, softened
- 6 cups 1-inch cubes Italian bread
- 5 cups half-and-half
- 3/4 cup plus 2 tablespoons sugar
- 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
- 1 1/2 teaspoons ground cinnamon
- 1/4 teaspoon fine salt
- 4 large eggs, lightly beaten
- 2 cups raspberries (a few reserved for garnish)
- 2 cups sliced strawberries
- 1 tablespoon honey, plus more if desired
- 2 teaspoons fresh lime juice
- Vanilla ice cream or whipped cream, for serving
Instructions
- For the bread pudding: Butter a 13-by-9-inch baking dish with 1 tablespoon butter. Put the bread cubes in the dish.
- Whisk together the half-and-half, 3/4 cup of the sugar, vanilla, 1 teaspoon of the cinnamon, salt and eggs in a large bowl. Pour this mixture over the bread. Cover and refrigerate for 1 hour.
- Preheat the oven to 325 degrees F. Melt the remaining 3 tablespoons butter in a microwave or on the stove and drizzle over the top of the bread pudding. Combine the remaining 2 tablespoons sugar and 1/2 teaspoon cinnamon and sprinkle over the top.
- Place on the center rack in the oven. Bake until the edges start to rise, a knife inserted into the center comes out mostly clean and the pudding jiggles when shaken, 45 to 50 minutes. Cool on a rack 35 to 40 minutes before serving.
- For the sauce: Puree the berries in food processor. Press through a fine-mesh strainer. Stir in the honey and lime juice. Taste and adjust with more honey if it’s not sweet enough for you.
- Serve the bread pudding with a drizzle of sauce. Garnish with additional berries and a scoop of vanilla ice cream or whipped cream.
