LOOKING for: Bread Pudding from doughnuts?

15 years ago

I've just aquired 6 dozen day old doughnuts and I can remember years ago eating bread pudding made from doughnuts. Has anyone heard of doing this or does anyone happen to have a recipe or advice or other ideas, they are powdered sugared, cinnamon sugared and plain doughnuts. Thanks Sally

I have never made bread pudding out of stale doughnuts...but I have made it out of lots of others tale bread stuffs.
For non sweet breads, like hot dog buns, I made a mixture of 2 eggs and 1/4 cup of sugar per 2 cups of milk. Sorry no real "recipe" because it depends on the size of your dish.
I fill a 3 inch deep casserole with chunks of stale "whatever"...and mix up 2 cups of milk, 2 eggs and 1/4 cup sugar and pour it over and let it soak in. Oh and vanilla in the milk! Always vanilla....about 1 tsp per2 cups of milk. If I need more, I make another batch of milk egg stuff, or if the dish is not that big, only 1/2 a batch.
Pour it over the stale stuff and let it soak in....then bake at 350 until set, about 45 minutes to an hour or more, depending on the size of your dish.
I often add vanilla or cinnamon to the egg milk mix....sometimes even use chocolate milk.
If you are using doughnuts, I would cut down on the sugar a little bit, and I think that cake doughnuts would be better, less "gummy" than raised doughnuts.
I think it would be more than delicious! I have made bread pudding out of stale cake and pound cake....and it's really yummy!
Chocolate cake, with chocolate milk and eggs? Yeah!

Hey JoAnn! I've had this recipe for Jewish Rye for quite a while. Don't remember where I got it, nor have I ever tried it. If you do, please post the results. ABM JEWISH RYE BREAD 1-1/8 cup water 1-1/2 tsp. salt 1 Tblsp. sugar 2 cups white flour (for darker rye, substitute whole wheat flour for up to 3/4 cup) 1 cup rye flour (for lighter rye, substitute white flour for up to half the rye) 1 Tblsp. olive oil (optional -- it seems to make the bread stay fresh longer and some people prefer the texture) 1 Tblsp. caraway seeds 1/4 cup chopped onions (optional) 2 tsp. yeast Place all ingredients in bread machine in recommended order on the dough cycle. After first rise, remove dough, place on a bread board and punch down. If dough is too sticky, covering your hands or the bread board with corn meal or white flour usually is enough to bring it to the right consistency. If using a bread pan, shape loaf and place it in oiled bread pan. If you have a pizza stone, don't use a bread pan; shape the dough into a loaf or a ball or as you like and place it on a floured board (or the pizza peel). In either case, slash top with a sharp knife, cover the dough with a tea towel and leave it to rise for 1 hour. Preheat oven (preferably with pizza stone) to 450Â° F. The stone makes the bread crustier and gives a better contrast between the crust and the interior crumb. Spritz walls of oven with water twice before putting loaf in. (Omit for a less crusty bread). Bake thirty minutes at 450Â° F., spritzing the oven walls once more after five minutes, or, alternatively, bake fifteen minutes at 450Â° F., then reduce heat to 350Â° F. and bake thirty minutes more. Remove and allow to cool on rack.

LOOKING for: T & T Rye bread (bread Machine)

I sort of use the one from my manual, so it's probably one you've seen already. Tho, it is a very old machine (I found at the thrift). I have never made the normal recipe, but I'll bet it's pretty good. (1 lb loaf) Here it is with my substitutions: 1 c water (I add 3T extra due to wheat & flax additions) 1 T molasses 1 t white vinegar 2 c bread flour (I use 1/2c bread flour,1/2c flax meal 2/3c rye flour 1c rye flour, 2/3c whole wheat flour) 1 T brown sugar, packed 3/4 T caraway seed 1 t salt 1 3/4 t dry active yeast (I use 2t) My machine manual recommends that: 1. if you are going to start the machine right away (not on timer) to put liquid and yeast on top 2. when making whole grain bread, start machine and set a separate timer for 15 min. After 15 min, restart machine. Guess it gets extra kneading, for what, I'm not sure. My version of the bread is pretty dense, but I'm looking for max fiber! Makes really good toast.

Posted by Roger_z7 (My Page) on Fri, Nov 15, 02 at 10:21 Here is a recipe that has bounced around in several newspapers before it ended up in our "daily blab". I have never seen anything like it and thought some of you might like to try it during the holidays. Looks pretty decadent. Sweet Potato Bread Pudding w/ Whiskey Sauce Pudding 10 slices white bread, cubed and toasted 2 cups sweet potato, peeled and cubed 4 tbs butter, melted 3/4 cup sugar, granulated 10 eggs, beaten 2 cups heavy cream OR half-and half OR milk 1 tsp vanilla 1 tsp nutmeg, ground 2 tsp cinnamon, ground Boil potato cubes in enough water to cover until barely soft. Drain. Place sugar, nutmeg and cinnamon in a large bowl and mix. Add eggs and cream OR milk and stir. In a separate bowl, combine sweet potatoes and butter and mash together. Let cool. In a large mixer bowl, combine potato mixture, sugar mixture and vanilla. Set mixer speed on low and mix for a minute or two. FOLD in the bread cubes and let stand for 5 minutes. Coat a 9 X 13 baking dish with butter and pour mixture into it. Bake on lower rack at 250 degrees for 45 minutes to an hour. Test for doneness with toothpick. Whiskey Sauce 2 cups sugar, confectioners 1/2 cup sugar, brown, packed 2 cups cream OR half-and-half OR evaporated milk 1/4 cup butter, unsalted, cubed 1/4 tsp vanilla 1/4 tsp nutmeg, ground 2 squares chocolate, white, optional 2 tbs whiskey, or to taste, optional In a heavy saucepan, place cream OR milk, both types of sugar, nutmeg and vanilla. Slowly bring to a boil and simmer until volume is reduced to one half. Remove from heat and whisk in butter. Add white chocolate and stir until it melts. Add whiskey and stir. Pour sauce over pudding or over individual servings. Note: Do not reheat sauce as it will separate. Keep it warm by placing in a stainless steel bowl that is sitting in a container of hot water.

Thanks Ginger and Linda. They are cake doughnuts, so I'll use the recipe but cut back on the sugar. I'll also make Ann's sauce, I hope together it won't be too sweet. Thanks again for the advice. Sally

A friend of mine makes a lemon sauce for her bread pudding and it is not terribly sweet and makes a wonderful dessert.

'Food and Wine' magazine, Thanksgiving 2006 (I'm thinking Â maybe 2005) had just this very thing. Probably your public library will have back issues?

Since it's cake doughnuts check out the one below from Food Network. I'd skip the rum sauce.

I made the bread pudding and it was a big hit! I just made a standard custard recipe but with only 2 tablespoons of sugar and no cinnamon since the doughnuts had sugar and cinnamon on them. Then I made the caramel sauce (I think Anns from here). The next time, I'll try the food network recipe...minus the raisins!
Thanks again everyone for the help.

>> 'Food and Wine' magazine, Thanksgiving 2006 (I'm thinking Â maybe 2005) had just this very thing. Probably your public library will have back issues? Project Foodie has a krispy kreme donut bread pudding listed in the November 2005 issue. The site has back issue's for many cooking mags. Just click on a magazine title and click index to see how many years they go back. Once you choose the year you can then search by month. You can also search for recipes by name and it will bring up all that are listed in all the mags and a few newspaper cooking sections, too. It's a great site.
