Ingredients for Apple-Chocolate Chip Bread Pudding
- 1 1-pound loaf sliced cinnamon-raisin bread, cut into 1 1/2-inch pieces
- 2 tablespoons unsalted butter, cut into small pieces, plus more for the baking dish
- 4 cups milk
- 1/2 cup granulated sugar
- 1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
- 2 large eggs plus 6 egg yolks
- 1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
- 2 apples, peeled and diced
- 1/2 cup bittersweet chocolate chips

Directions for Apple-Chocolate Chip Bread Pudding
- Preheat the oven to 250 degrees F. Spread the bread on a baking sheet and bake until crisp, about 30 minutes; let cool. Meanwhile, butter a 9-by-13-inch baking dish; set aside.
- Combine the milk, sugar and salt in a medium saucepan over medium heat, stirring occasionally to dissolve the sugar; remove from the heat and let cool slightly. Whisk the eggs, egg yolks and vanilla in a large bowl. Pour the warm milk mixture into the eggs, whisking constantly.
- Toss the bread with the apples and chocolate chips in a large bowl, then spread in the prepared baking dish. Pour the custard over the bread mixture, then gently press the bread down into the custard. Dot with the 2 tablespoons butter. Cover with foil and set aside 30 minutes.
- Increase the oven temperature to 350 degrees F. Bake the bread pudding, covered, until a knife inserted into the center comes out clean, about 45 minutes. Uncover and continue baking until browned, about 15 more minutes. Let cool slightly; dust with confectioners’ sugar and serve with whipped cream.

- Dessert – Dessert (/dɪˈzɜːrt/) is a course that concludes a meal. The course consists of sweet foods, such as confections, and possibly a beverage such as dessert wine and liqueur. In some parts of the world, such as much of Central Africa and West Africa, and most parts of China, there is no tradition of a dessert course to conclude a meal.The term dessert can apply to many confections, such as biscuits, cakes, cookies, custards, gelatins, ice creams, pastries, pies, puddings, macaroons, sweet soups, tarts and fruit salad. Fruit is also commonly found in dessert courses because of its naturally occurring sweetness. Some cultures sweeten foods that are more commonly savory to create desserts.
- Fruit – In botany, a fruit is the seed-bearing structure in flowering plants that is formed from the ovary after flowering.Fruits are the means by which flowering plants (also known as angiosperms) disseminate their seeds. Edible fruits in particular have long propagated using the movements of humans and animals in a symbiotic relationship that is the means for seed dispersal for the one group and nutrition for the other; in fact, humans and many animals have become dependent on fruits as a source of food. Consequently, fruits account for a substantial fraction of the world’s agricultural output, and some (such as the apple and the pomegranate) have acquired extensive cultural and symbolic meanings.In common language usage, “fruit” normally means the fleshy seed-associated structures (or produce) of plants that typically are sweet or sour and edible in the raw state, such as apples, bananas, grapes, lemons, oranges, and strawberries. In botanical usage, the term “fruit” also includes many structures that are not commonly called “fruits”, such as nuts, bean pods, corn kernels, tomatoes, and wheat grains.
- Bread Pudding – Bread pudding is a bread-based dessert popular in many countries’ cuisines, made with stale bread and milk or cream, generally containing eggs, a form of fat such as oil, butter or suet, and depending on whether the pudding is sweet or savory, a variety of other ingredients. Sweet bread puddings may use sugar, syrup, honey, dried fruit, nuts, as well as spices such as cinnamon, nutmeg, mace, or vanilla. The bread is soaked in the liquids, mixed with the other ingredients, and baked.Savory puddings may be served as main courses, while sweet puddings are typically eaten as desserts.In other languages, its name is a translation of “bread pudding” or even just “pudding”, for example “pudín” or “budín”. In the Philippines, banana bread pudding is popular. In Mexico, there is a similar dish eaten during Lent called capirotada. In the United Kingdom, a moist version of Nelson cake, itself a bread pudding, is nicknamed “Wet Nelly”.
