How to Make Pecan Pie Bread Pudding
I mix mine in the mornings, let sit until I finish dinner and pop it in the oven before we sit down to eat :)
Slightly beat eggs in a bowl.
In a large mixing bowl add eggs and slightly beat.
Mixing remaining ingredients, except bread and nuts, into eggs.
Add everything but the bread and pecans. Mix well until it is combined really well.
Folding bread into the egg mixture.
Fold in bread and half the pecans.
Adding nuts to the mixture.
Let sit at room temperature for 1 hour mixing every so often to coat bread well. Cover and refrigerate until you are ready to bake. This recipe is best if left to sit for 6-8 hours or overnight. It gives the bread plenty of time to soak everything up!
Spraying baking dish with non-stick spray.
Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Prepare a 9x13 baking dish with butter or cooking spray. (I use a little smaller size because I like a thicker bread pudding.) Use whatever size you want :)
Egg and bread mixture poured into the baking dish.
Pour everything into your prepared baking dish.
Pecans placed on top.
Top with remaining pecans.
Baking bread pudding in the oven.
Pop in the oven and bake for 60 minutes.
Melting a stick of butter.
RUM SAUCE: While the bread pudding is baking, in a saucepan melt stick of butter.
Adding sugar, dark rum (or bourbon), and water.
Add sugar, dark rum or bourbon, and water. Mix well and simmer for 10 minutes stirring occasionally. Turn stove eye off and let sit to keep warm until bread pudding is finished.
Bread pudding removed from the oven.
Remove from the oven.
Pouring some of the rum sauce over the bread pudding.
While still hot, pour half the rum sauce over the top. Letting it get down between the pudding and sides of a baking dish.
Pouring more sauce over the bread pudding.
Let sit for 15 minutes and pour more sauce over it. You judge how much of the sauce you want - some or all it is up to you. I use it all, lol.

Enjoy! I like mine warm with vanilla ice cream and hubby eats him with fresh whipped topping.
