Baked Waffle Pudding Recipes

SUNNY'S FUNKY MONKEY WAFFLE PUDDING

Steps:

• Butter the bottom and sides of an 8-by-8-inch baking dish. Arrange the waffle wedges standing up in rows, alternating every other piece so the curved side faces the opposite direction to create an organized but random top with curved peaks.
• In a blender, add the chocolate milk, peanut butter, brown sugar and bananas. Add a pinch of salt and blend to taste; it should not be salty, just taste like a hint of salt. Add the egg and blend until smooth.
• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
• Slowly pour the custard over the prepared dish of waffle wedges and let rest 10 to 15 minutes to allow it to soak into the waffles. The waffles will crest above the custard line; gently press down to encourage absorption.
• Bake until the tops are golden and the custard feels set, 50 minutes to 1 hour. Remove and sprinkle the marshmallows, chips and bacon over the top. Put back in the oven and bake until the chocolate is shiny and the marshmallows soften, 5 to 10 minutes more. Serve with warm maple syrup.

BAKED WAFFLE PUDDING

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Grease an 8-inch baking dish.
• Spread waffle pieces in the bottom of the baking dish.
• Beat milk, eggs, sugar, and vanilla extract together in a bowl until well-blended. Pour over waffles in the baking dish, making sure to cover them evenly. Let stand for 5 minutes.
• Bake in the preheated oven until center is set and edges start to brown and pull away from the sides, 20 to 25 minutes.

VANILLA PUDDING

Steps:

• In 2-quart saucepan, mix sugar, cornstarch and salt. Gradually stir in milk. Cook over medium heat, stirring constantly, until mixture thickens and boils. Boil and stir 1 minute.
• Gradually stir at least half of the hot mixture into egg yolks, then stir back into hot mixture in saucepan. Boil and stir 1 minute; remove from heat. Stir in butter and vanilla.
• Pour pudding into dessert dishes. Cover and refrigerate about 1 hour or until chilled. Store covered in refrigerator.

LEFTOVER WAFFLE BREAD PUDDING

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350°F.
• Lightly grease a 9x9 cake pan, or a 9" round pan, or a loaf pan. If you're using whole waffles put the first layer in the pan. For torn up waffles, toss them into the pan and try to somewhat level them out.
• In a bowl, whisk the lukewarm milk, butter, eggs, first amount of sugar and vanilla together until eggs are fully incorporated. Pour over the waffles - if you're using torn up waffles, give the whole thing a good stir. For whole waffles, pour some of the mixture over the first layer, then alternate layers of waffles and egg mix until it's all used up. Sprinkle the top of the waffle mixture with the second amount of brown sugar, then glob some jam or jelly randomly around the top.
• Bake at 350* for about 45 minutes to an hour, until the center is set and the top is starting to brown. Serve either hot or cold.

WAFFLES

Steps:

• Heat the waffle maker according to manufacturer's instructions. Whisk the egg whites to stiff peaks. In a separate large bowl, mix together the flour, bicarbonate, caster sugar and a pinch of salt.
• Make a well in the centre and add the egg yolks and melted butter. Start mixing with a balloon whisk; keep whisking as you slowly add the milk until you get a smooth, thick batter. Carefully fold in the egg whites with a metal spoon.
• Heat oven to 180C/160C fan/gas 4. Use a ladle to pour the batter into your waffle maker and cook for 5 mins or according to the manufacturer's instructions. Repeat until all the batter has been used up, placing your finished waffles onto a baking tray as you go.
• Once all the waffles are made, transfer to the oven for 5 mins to warm through and crisp. Serve with sweet or savoury toppings.

CHOCOLATE WAFFLE PUDDING

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 160°C Lightly grease a 22cm square ovenproof dish.
• Arrange the waffles in the prepared dish. Sprinkle with the chocolate.
• Whisk the eggs, sugar, milk, buttermilk and vanilla essence in a large jug until well combined. Pour half the egg mixture over waffles. Set aside for 5 minutes, then pour over the remaining egg mixture.
• Place the dish in a large roasting pan and fill with enough boiling water to come halfway up the sides of the dish. Bake for about 50 minutes or until the custard has just set. Set aside for 5 minutes before serving. Dust with icing sugar and serve with ice cream if desired.

CHOCOLATE & SALTED CARAMEL WAFFLE BREAD & BUTTER PUDDING

Steps:

• Fill a large pan with a few centimetres of water and set over a medium heat. Set a large heatproof bowl over the pan - it should sit on top without touching the water. Break the chocolate into the bowl, then tip in the cream, milk, butter, caster sugar, cinnamon and vanilla. Reduce the heat to low, and stir the mixture until everything has melted together and is glossy. Remove from the heat and leave to cool slightly.
• Spread the caramel over the base of a baking dish (ours was 30 x 22cm), then sprinkle with a pinch of sea salt. Cut the waffles in half diagonally, then arrange over the caramel in overlapping rows.
• Pour the egg yolks into the warm chocolate mixture, mixing well as you do until all of the egg is fully incorporated. Carefully pour the chocolate custard over the waffles, ensuring they're fully covered. Leave to soak for at least 1 hr, or cover and chill overnight.
• Heat the oven to 180C/160C fan/gas 4 and uncover the dish if it has been chilled. Bake the pudding for 30 mins until the custard is set with a slight wobble in the centre. Leave to stand for 5 mins, then dust lightly with icing sugar, if you like, and scoop into bowls to serve.
