Pumpkin Bread Pudding INGREDIENTS: List of 13 items . 8 ounces French bread, torn into small pieces, about 5 cups . 2 cups half-and-half, or half milk and half cream . 3 large eggs . 2/3 cup granulated sugar . 2/3 cup brown sugar . 1 can (15 ounces) pumpkin puree . 1 cup dried cranberries . 3 tablespoons melted butter . 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon . 1/2 teaspoon ground nutmeg . 1/2 teaspoon ground ginger . 1 teaspoon vanilla . cinnamon sugar, optional list end
PREPARATION: Butter an 11x7-inch baking dish. Heat oven to 350°. In a bowl, cover the torn bread with the half-and-half; set aside. In another bowl, combine eggs, sugars, pumpkin, cranberries, melted butter, spices, and vanilla; blend well. Pour pumpkin mixture over soaked bread and stir to blend. Pour mixture into the prepared baking dish. Sprinkle top with cinnamon-sugar, if desired. Bake for 45 to 60 minutes, or until set. NOTE: I didn't have the cranberries called for, so I used raisins instead. Tasted great. Also, I threw in some chopped pecans.
