Ingredients
Gather these simple ingredients to get started:
- 6-8 apple cider donuts, cubed
- 2 cups milk
- 1 cup heavy cream
- 4 large eggs
- 3/4 cup granulated sugar
- 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
- 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 1/4 teaspoon ground nutmeg
- Pinch of salt
- 1/2 cup chopped apples (optional)
- Powdered sugar for dusting (optional)
Instructions
Follow these easy steps to create your delicious Apple Cider Donut Bread Pudding:
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease a 9×13 inch baking dish.
- In a large bowl, whisk together the milk, heavy cream, eggs, sugar, vanilla, cinnamon, nutmeg, and salt until well combined.
- Add the cubed apple cider donuts to the egg mixture, ensuring they are well coated. If using, fold in the chopped apples.
- Transfer the mixture into the prepared baking dish, spreading it evenly. Allow it to soak for about 15 minutes while the oven preheats.
- Bake the pudding in the preheated oven for 40-45 minutes, or until the top is golden brown and a toothpick comes out clean from the center.
- Once done, remove from the oven and let it cool for a few minutes. If desired, you can dust the top with powdered sugar before serving.
Serve this warm, perhaps with a scoop of vanilla ice cream or a drizzle of caramel sauce for that extra indulgence. Enjoy the rich flavors of fall with every bite!
