First off, I am no baker. I can put a meal together and call it that, but when it comes to baking, I refrain from the yeast, baking powder, and flour.
Nope. That's for the bakers!
However, while visiting Orlando on a business trip, at the Rosen Centre Hotel I had the opportunity to try a bread pudding and loved it! So I had that in my head that I need to duplicate that recipe.
Yesterday I browsed some sites, came across Paula Deen's heart-attack on a spoon bite, then came across the traditinal Betty crocker.
I loved the ingredients and concept from both. However, neither one convinced me to the fullest.
So, I violated all fine lines and did the untraditional method of following a recipe. Instead, I combined both and recreated my own version.
Paula Deen's called for 25+ hours of waiting to taste my new discovery of sweets, so I opted for the Betty Crocker prep time(and less sugar).
Ingredients to follow later:
Here is what I came up with:
Using Sarah lee's cinnamon swirl bread, a handful of pecans, I used a food processor to reduce the size of the bread cubes (making the mixture fine).
And voila! Forgot I did have brandy or burbon for the sauce, regardless, this was a masterpiece!!
What has been your most adventurous tests? See, from above, am not that bad of a chef! Lol. Enjoy!!!
