Ingredients
- 4 cups milk
- 6 eggs
- 2 tsp vanilla extract
- 1 tsp cinnamon
- 1/2 tsp cloves
- 1/4 tsp allspice
- 1 cup granulated sugar
- 2 Tbsp orange zest
- 1 1/4 cups fresh cranberries
- 1 loaf thick bread cubed (day old/crusty bread is best; I used brioche)
- 3 Tbsp butter melted
- 1-1 1/2 cups powdered sugar
- 1/2 tsp vanilla extract
- 2 Tbsp freshly squeezed orange juice
- 1 tsp orange zest optional--it makes the glaze extra orange-flavored!
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees and grease a 13x9 baking dish.
- Spread half of the bread in an even layer on the bottom of the baking dish. Sprinkle cranberries over the top. Place the remaining bread on top.
- In a bowl, whisk together eggs, milk, vanilla extract, cinnamon, cloves, allspice, sugar, and orange zest until well combined.
- Pour the egg mixture over the bread, making sure all of the bread is covered.
- Allow the bread pudding to sit for 25 minutes.
- Bake for 45-50 minutes, or until the top is golden brown and the center jiggles only slightly when moved.
- Allow to cool at least 10 minutes before serving. (The bread pudding might deflate a bit while cooling; this is normal.)
- While the cranberry orange bread pudding is cooling off, mix together melted butter, powdered sugar (starting with 1 cup), vanilla extract, orange juice, and orange zest. If the glaze seems too thin, add in the last 1/2 cup of powdered sugar.
- Drizzle over each slice of bread pudding.
- Enjoy!
