Description

What to do with leftover cornbread? This cornbread pudding is amazing! I mean who doesn’t love cornbread?


Ingredients

Units Scale

Corn Bread

1 1/4 c flour

3/4 c cornmeal

1/4 c sugar

2 t baking powder

1/2 t salt

1 c skim milk

1/4 c vegetable oil

1 beaten egg

Bread Pudding

1/2 c maple syrup
4 eggs
3 c Half and Half
1/4 t salt
1/4 c brown sugar
1 1/2 lbs corn bread leftovers (About 3-4 c of cubed corn bread)
3/4 c blueberries
2 T brown sugar

Peach Sauce with Jack Daniels

2 T butter
1/3 c brown sugar
1 T Jack Daniels
1/4 t cinnamon
3 sliced peaches


Instructions

Cornbread:

Preheat oven to 400. Grease an 8 or 9″ pan.

Combine dry ingredients in medium sized bowl. Mix wet ingredients in a large measuring cup. Make a well in the center of the dry cornbread mixture and pour in. Stir until everything is moistened and well mixed.

Spread batter into prepared pan. Bake 20-25 minutes or until top is light golden brown and a cake tester inserted comes out clean.

Bread Pudding:

Preheat oven to 300.

Butter an 8′ round souffle dish.

Whisk first 5 ingredients together. Add bread and blueberries. Let sit a few minutes to absorb the milk mixture.

Pour into prepared baking dish. Sprinkle with 2 T brown sugar or maple sugar. You can add cinnamon, too if you like. Feel free to sub in different fruits. And don’t be afraid to add more liquid. The creamier the better. Make sure your bread is covered with liquid. Let liquid soak in about 5-10 minutes, weighted if necessary.

Bake at 300 for 60-75 minutes. Serve warm with peach sauce or  just serve alone with whipped or ice cream.

Peach Sauce

Melt butter and brown sugar in a saute pan on stove.

Stir in the Jack or leave out.

Add cinnamon.

Stir in peaches and cook for a few minutes until peaches are softened enough to your liking.

Put a few spoonfuls over each serving of bread pudding and top with ice cream or whipped cream.


Notes

For bread pudding it is best if somewhat dry leftovers are used.
