It's been a long long time since I've had bread pudding and with the holidays coming up I think it would be nice to cook some up. Has anyone ever made bread pudding in the crock pot? What is your go to recipe?
 
Hello Alrikidokie,

It is nice to meet you! I am helping with the forums and will be posting lots of crock pot recipes, including one for your request. I joined this week and will be working on adding lots of content and photos of slow cooking! Nice to meet you and hope to see you here in the forums soon!
 
Alrikidokie,

I haven't tried it yet, but this one has me drooling a bit...

  • Total Time:4 hr 15 min
  • Prep: 15 min
  • Cook: 4 hr
  • Level: Easy
Yield: 8 servings
Ingredients
  • Nonstick spray
  • 2 1/4 cups whole milk
  • 1 (14-ounce) can sweetened condensed milk
  • 1 (12-ounce) can evaporated milk
  • 1/2 cup sugar
  • 1 tablespoon vanilla extract
  • 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • 1 teaspoon kosher salt
  • 9 large egg yolks
  • 1 loaf challah bread, cut or torn into 1-inch pieces (stale is best)
  • 3/4 cup slivered almonds, toasted
  • Cinnamon Sugar Sauce, recipe follows
  • Freshly whipped cream, for serving
  • CINNAMON SUGAR SAUCE:
  • 3/4 cup sugar
  • 8 tablespoons (1 stick) unsalted butter
  • 1/2 cup buttermilk
  • 1 tablespoon light corn syrup
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • Pinch salt
  • 1 teaspoon baking soda

Directions
Coat the insert of a slow cooker with nonstick spray. Line the insert with aluminum foil for easy removal, letting some foil overhand for handles.

Meanwhile, in a large mixing bowl, whisk together the whole milk, sweetened condensed milk, evaporated milk, sugar, vanilla, cinnamon, salt and egg yolks. Toss in the cubed bread and the almonds and mix to coat all the bread.

Add the mixture to the slow cooker, cover and cook on low until the center of the bread pudding is set, about 4 hours. Remove the lid and cool. Use the foil handles to lift the bread pudding from the slow cooker. Drizzle individual servings with Cinnamon Sugar Sauce and top with freshly whipped cream.

In a heavy-bottomed saucepan, combine the sugar, butter, buttermilk, corn syrup, vanilla and cinnamon and salt and bring to a boil over medium-high heat. Remove from the heat and slowly add the baking soda. At first the sauce will bubble up, just keep stirring. Sauce will thicken as it cools.

Cook's Note: This syrup is a great addition to pancakes, waffles or any dessert.
