This Caramel Apple Bread Pudding is a warm, comforting dessert made with chunks of cinnamon bread, tender apples, and rich caramel sauce. It’s an easy-to-make dessert perfect for fall gatherings or holiday meals.

Ingredients

  • 1 loaf cinnamon bread, cubed (about 6 cups)
  • 1 ½ cups diced apples (about 2 medium apples)
  • 4 large eggs
  • 2 cups whole milk
  • ½ cup heavy cream
  • ¾ cup granulated sugar
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • ½ teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • ¼ teaspoon salt
  • ½ cup caramel sauce, plus more for topping

Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven to 350ºF. Spray an 8×8” or 9×9” baking pan with cooking spray.
  2. Place the cubed cinnamon bread and diced apples into the prepared pan.
  3. In a medium bowl, whisk together the eggs, milk, cream, sugar, vanilla, cinnamon, and salt.
  4. Pour the custard mixture over the bread and apples in the baking pan.
  5. Drizzle ½ cup caramel sauce over the top of the bread mixture.
  6. Allow the mixture to sit for 10 minutes so the bread can absorb some of the liquid.
  7. Bake for 50–60 minutes, or until the center is set and a knife inserted in the middle comes out clean.
  8. Let the bread pudding cool slightly, then drizzle with more caramel sauce before serving.

Notes

  • Use day-old bread for better absorption of the custard mixture.
  • Try different types of bread like brioche or challah for extra richness.
  • Serve warm with a scoop of vanilla ice cream for an indulgent treat.
  • Store leftovers in the refrigerator and reheat before serving.
