For an extra layer of flavor, consider adding a splash of vanilla extract to the bread pudding mixture. To plump the raisins, soak them in warm water or bourbon for about 15 minutes before adding them to the recipe. Toast the hazelnuts by spreading them on a baking sheet and baking at 350°F (175°C) for 8-10 minutes, or until fragrant. This bread pudding can be made ahead of time and reheated. Store covered in the refrigerator and reheat in a 350°F (175°C) oven until warmed through. Serve warm with a scoop of vanilla ice cream or a dollop of whipped cream for an extra indulgent treat.

Follow The Directions
01
StepPreheat oven to 350°F (175°C). (5 minutes)
02
StepIn a saucepan, gently heat milk and 1/2 cup butter over medium heat until butter is melted. Do not boil. (3-5 minutes)
03
StepIn a large bowl, whisk together granulated sugar, eggs, cinnamon, and salt until well combined. Gradually whisk in the warm milk mixture. Stir in bread cubes, plumped raisins, and toasted hazelnuts. Let the mixture sit for 5 minutes to allow the bread to absorb the liquid. (10 minutes)
04
StepPour the bread pudding mixture into an ungreased 9x13 inch baking dish. (2 minutes)
05
StepBake, uncovered, until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean, approximately 40-45 minutes. (40-45 minutes)
06
StepWhile the pudding is baking, prepare the bourbon sauce: In a saucepan, combine brown sugar, 1 cup butter, and bourbon whiskey over medium heat. Stir constantly until the mixture comes to a simmer and the sugar is dissolved, about 5 minutes. Remove from heat and set aside. (5 minutes)
07
StepOnce the bread pudding is done, remove it from the oven and immediately pour the warm bourbon sauce evenly over the top. Let it sit for at least 10 minutes before serving. (10 minutes)
