What are the steps to make Caribbean bread pudding at home

First of all, you need to start by collecting the ingredients first. This means you ensure that while in the middle of the process of baking, you don't have to frantically roam around the house looking for things.

In the next step, you are expected to preheat the oven first. This is done at 350°F followed by greasing the baking pan so that the bread pudding crumbs won't stick to the bottom. However, you should not go overboard either. This is because too much oil can prevent the crust from baking, ideally leaving everything soggy.

You do not need the crust of the bread so slice it off and discard it! The white and tender portions are chopped into small cubes and then collected in a small bowl. Allow the bread cubes to be soaked in milk for a while so they get tender. Leave them like this for about five to ten minutes.

Blend the cubes well in the milk and remove the excess liquid from the bowl. Add some flour and raisins to the bowl of soaked bread cubes. Give everything a good mix. Then add all the remaining ingredients to the bowl and stir well to create a smooth consistency.

Now, finally, you need to pour this mixture into a well-greased baking pan. Baking should be done for at least forty minutes during which the pan should remain uncovered.

To check for doneness, you can insert a knife into the freshly baked crust and if you find it comes out clean then the bread pudding is ready. If you find crumbs are still sticking to it, leave the tray in the oven for another few minutes.

Usually, such bread pudding recipes are served with some ice cream or whipped cream used as a topping. You should leave it to cool at room temperature for a while followed by refrigerating the pan to cool down further. Finally, this Caribbean dessert can be served with a handsome topping for the dessert round.
