How To Make bread pudding with orange-butter sauce

  • Step 1
    Tear french bread into bite sized pieces. Place bread in a large well-buttered dish. Sprinkle in raisins. Drizzle melted butter over bread and mix well with hands.
  • Step 2
    In a medium bowl, beat cream, eggs and vanilla. Add sugar, brown sugar, cinnamon and nutmeg. Beat well and pour over bread. Let soak until all is absorbed.
  • Step 3
    Place this dish into a larger pan filled with water half-way up sides. Bake @ 350 for 1 hour or more until browned and risen. Top with Orange-Butter Sauce.
  • Step 4
    Orange-Butter Sauce: Melt butter. Add sugar, sour cream and orange juice. Bring to a boil; cook, stirring constantly, until slightly thickened. Serve warm over Bread Pudding. Enjoy! (I suggest making a double batch of sauce, because everyone will want MORE)
