Week 2—King’s Bakery Bread Pudding!

King’s Bakery Bread Pudding Recipe

(Originally named after the original Hawaiian Sweet Bread Bakery)

• 1# loaf King’s Bakery sweet bread (You can use any kind of Hawaiian sweet bread available)
• 9 eggs beaten
• 1 ½ blocks butter or margarine
• 1 ½ tsp. vanilla
• cinnamon (to your taste)
• nutmeg (to your taste)
• 1 cup sugar
• 3 cups milk
• raisins (to your taste)
• macadamia nuts (optional)

Directions

Melt butter, sugar, and milk. Break the sweet bread into large pieces in greased 9 x 13 pan. Sprinkle raisins (and nuts if used) over bread pieces. Let the melted butter mixture cool until warm. Add the eggs (make sure mixture is not too hot, or else it will curdle). Add vanilla and pour over bread (use a small cup to pour evenly over bread). Sprinkle top with cinnamon and nutmeg. Let it stand for ten minutes to allow top bread to absorb milk mixture. Bake at 350 degrees for 20-25 minutes. Knife inserted will come out clean when done.
