Main ingredient: egg
Pairs well with: toast, hash browns, fruit salad, bacon, avocado
Ingredients
- 5 Large Eggs
- 1 Cup Whole Milk
- 1 Cup Evaporated milk (or heavy cream )
- 1/2 Cup Light brown sugar
- 1 1/2 Cup Sugar
- 3 TBSP Unsalted butter (Melted)
- 2 TBSP bourbon or Irish whiskey (optional)
- 1 TSP Ground Cinnamon
- 1 TSP Vanilla Extract
- 1/2 TSP Kosher Salt
- Mint (optional for garnish)
- 6-8 Day old or slightly stale cinnamon rolls (cut into bite sized pieces)
Method
- Heat the oven to 350°F.
- Whisk the eggs in a large bowl, then whisk in the whole milk, evaporated milk, sugar, brown sugar, melted butter, bourbon if using, cinnamon, vanilla and salt until combined.
- Put the cinnamon roll pieces in a baking dish and pour the custard slowly over them. Leave the dish to stand for at least 15 minutes, and up to an hour, so the rolls soak the custard up.
- Bake for 45–50 minutes, until the top is golden brown and puffy and a toothpick pushed into the center comes out clean.
- Rest the pudding for 10 minutes after it comes out of the oven.
- Slice the pudding and serve it warm, with vanilla ice cream and a mint leaf if you like.
- Note: A simple glaze of powdered sugar and milk can be drizzled over the top for extra sweetness.
