1. Cooking Directions

2. Combine all pudding ingredients except bread. Add bread and allow to soak up liquid, about 20 minutes. Preheat oven to 350°F/180°C. Lightly grease a 9 × 12″/23 × 30 cm glass baking dish and pour bread mixture into pan. Bake about 45 minutes to 1 hour. Serve with sauce.

3. To make sauce, place sugar and water in small saucepan over high heat and cook, stirring, until sugar is dissolved. Then reduce heat to medium and cook without stirring, just washing down sides of pan with a pastry brush dipped in water until sauce has turned caramel color (about 15 minutes). Remove syrup from heat. Let cool slightly, then slowly add cream, butter and extract, being sure hot syrup doesn’t spatter. Stir until smooth; serve on bread pudding.
