Rhubarb And Ricotta Bread Butter Pudding Recipes

OUTSTANDING RHUBARB BREAD PUDDING

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Grease an 8-inch square baking dish. Spread toasted bread into the bottom the baking dish.
• Heat milk in a saucepan over medium-low heat until bubbles form around the sides. Remove from heat, add butter, and stir until butter melts. Pour milk mixture over the bread into the prepared baking dish. Stir until all bread is touching milk mixture; let stand 15 minutes.
• Stir rhubarb, sugar, eggs, cinnamon, and salt together in a bowl; pour rhubarb mixture into bread mixture and stir. Sprinkle brown sugar over the top of the rhubarb mixture.
• Bake in the preheated oven until golden and set, 45 to 50 minutes.

RHUBARB BREAD AND BUTTER PUDDING

Steps:

• Put sliced rhubarb into a bowl and sprinkle with sugar. Let macerate for 1 hour. Butter the bread and arrange 4 slices, buttered side down, in a buttered dish. Sprinkle with half the rhubarb, arrange another layer of bread, buttered side down, add rest of rhubarb and cover with last 4 bread slices. In a mixing bowl, whisk together 2 cups cream, 1 cup milk, 4 eggs, vanilla and 3/4 cups sugar. Pour mixture through a fine sieve over the bread. Sprinkle sugar over the top and let mixture stand, loosely covered, for at least 1 hour or refrigerate overnight. Bake in a bain-marie in a pre-heated 350 degree oven for 1 hour or until the top is crisp and golden. Serve warm with softly whipped cream.

RHUBARB AND RICOTTA BREAD & BUTTER PUDDING

Steps:

• Trim the rhubarb and cut it into 3cm pieces. Heat 100ml water in a pan with 50g of the sugar. Bring to the boil and add the rhubarb. Simmer for 11/2 mins, then carefully lift the rhubarb out with a slotted spoon. Arrange it on a plate or tray so that it can lie in a single layer (if you keep the pieces too close to each other, they'll continue to cook and soften - you want them to stay intact).
• Put the milk and cream in a heavy-bottomed pan, add a pinch of salt and bring to the boil, then add the vanilla. Beat the eggs, extra yolk and the rest of the sugar together in a bowl. Pour the warm milk and cream onto this, stirring all the time. Heat oven to 180C/160C fan/gas 4.
• Butter the bread. Drain the ricotta (if there is any liquid on top), then add the icing sugar to it. Spread the buttered bread thickly with ricotta. Sprinkle the citrus zest on top, then layer these slices with the rhubarb in a 20 x 30cm ovenproof dish. Pour the egg and cream mixture through a sieve and leave to sit for 30 mins (this makes the pudding lighter).
• Put the dish in a roasting tin. Add enough boiling water to the tin to come halfway up the sides of the dish. Bake for 40-45 mins or until puffy and set on the top, and golden in colour. Leave to cool for about 10 mins (the pudding will continue to cook and 'set' during this time). Dust with icing sugar and serve with crème fraîche, or cream mixed with Greek yogurt.

FRESH RHUBARB BREAD PUDDING

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 325 degrees F (165 degrees C).
• Place bread cubes into a buttered 2 quart casserole dish. Combine the milk and butter in a saucepan, and heat just to the boiling point. Pour over the bread cubes, and let stand for 15 minutes. In a medium bowl, whisk together the eggs, sugar, cinnamon and salt. Stir in rhubarb. Pour over the soaked bread, and stir gently until evenly blended. Sprinkle walnuts over the top.
• Bake for 50 minutes in the preheated oven, until nicely browned on the top. Let stand for 10 minutes before serving.

RICOTTA PUDDINGS WITH GLAZED RHUBARB

Steps:

• Make pudding batter:
• Put oven rack in middle position and preheat oven to 325°F. Lightly oil muffin cups.
• Blend together all pudding ingredients in a blender until smooth, then divide batter among muffin cups.
• Prepare rhubarb:
• Stir together sugar and cornstarch in a 9- to 10-inch glass or ceramic pie plate. Add rhubarb and toss to coat, then spread in one layer.
• Bake puddings and rhubarb:
• Bake puddings and rhubarb, side by side, carefully turning rhubarb over once halfway through cooking, until puddings are just set and edges are pale golden, 35 to 45 minutes. Remove puddings and rhubarb from oven at the same time. Set rhubarb aside and cool puddings in muffin pan on a rack 5 minutes (puddings will sink slightly).
• Run a thin knife around edge of each pudding, then invert a platter over pan and invert puddings onto platter. Transfer puddings, right side up, to plates and serve topped with rhubarb and its juices.

Drizzle remaining 1 tablespoons butter over bread and sprinkle with cinnamon. Cover dish with aluminum foil; place in slow cooker bowl. Fill bowl with boiling water to reach 1-inch up the side of dish.
• Cover top of slow cooker with a dish towel; top with lid. Cook for 2 1/2 hours on high or until internal temperature registers 140 on an instant read thermometer. Cool at least 20 minutes.

RHUBARB BREAD AND BUTTER PUDDING

Steps:

• Cut the rhubarb into 1-inch pieces. Put into a dish and sprinkle with sugar. Let macerate for an hour.

• Preheat the oven to 350°F.
• Bake in a water bath - the water should be boiling and should come halfway up the sides of the baking dish - in the middle of the preheated oven, for about 1 hour or until the top is crisp and golden. Server the pudding warm, with some softly whipped cream.
