Ingredients:

• Bread Pudding:
  • 6 cups cubed day-old bread (challah, brioche, or French bread)
  • 3 large apples, peeled, cored, and diced
  • 1/2 cup brown sugar
  • 1/4 cup granulated sugar
  • 2 tsp ground cinnamon
  • 1/4 tsp ground nutmeg
  • 1/4 tsp salt
  • 4 large eggs
  • 2 cups milk
  • 1 cup heavy cream
  • 2 tsp vanilla extract
  • 1/4 cup melted butter
• Caramel Sauce:
  • 1 cup granulated sugar
  • 1/4 cup water
  • 1/2 cup heavy cream
  • 2 tbsp butter
  • 1/2 tsp vanilla extract
  • Pinch of salt
• Sweet Glaze:
  • 1 cup powdered sugar
  • 2-3 tbsp milk
  • 1/2 tsp vanilla extract

Instructions:

1. Preheat the Oven:
   • Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a 9×13-inch baking dish.
2. Prepare the Bread Pudding:
   • In a large bowl, combine the cubed bread and diced apples.
   • In a separate bowl, mix together the brown sugar, granulated sugar, cinnamon, nutmeg, and salt.
   • In another bowl, whisk together the eggs, milk, heavy cream, vanilla extract, and melted butter.
   • Pour the wet mixture over the bread and apples, and gently stir to combine. Let it sit for about 10-15 minutes to allow the bread to absorb the liquid.
3. Bake the Bread Pudding:
   • Transfer the mixture to the prepared baking dish and spread it evenly.
   • Bake in the preheated oven for 45-50 minutes, or until the top is golden brown and the pudding is set in the center.
4. Prepare the Caramel Sauce:
   • In a medium saucepan, combine the granulated sugar and water over medium heat. Stir until the sugar dissolves, then stop stirring and let it cook until it turns a golden amber color.
   • Remove from heat and carefully whisk in the heavy cream, butter, vanilla extract, and a pinch of salt until smooth.
5. Prepare the Sweet Glaze:
   • In a small bowl, whisk together the powdered sugar, milk, and vanilla extract until smooth.
6. Serve:
   • Drizzle the warm bread pudding with the caramel sauce and sweet glaze before serving.
   • Enjoy this Apple Cinnamon Bread Pudding warm, straight from the oven, with a scoop of vanilla ice cream if desired.
