Ingredients

The following ingredients have 10 Servings
  • 4 eggs
  • 2 c milk
  • 1 1/4 c canned pumpkin puree
  • 1 c brown sugar
  • 2 tsp vanilla extract
  • 1 ½ tsp Pumpkin Pie Spice
  • 1 loaf French bread (cut into 1 inch cubes, discard ends)
  • ½ c raisins (optional)
  • 1 c frosting (vanilla or cream cheese is great)
  • 1 c apples (skinned and diced)

Instruction

  • In a bowl combine milk, pumpkin, sugar, vanilla, and pumpkin spice. Mix well.
  • Cut loaf of bread into cubes, discard ends.
  • Spray inside of slow cooker with cooking spray or use a liner.
  • Add in 1/3 of bread, half of raisins, and pour 1/3 of pumpkin liquid on top. 
  • Cover with rest of cubed bread and raisins and/or diced apples. Pour remaining pumpkin mixture on top making sure all pcs of bread are covered. 
  • Push down bread softly with back of spoon to make sure all pcs have some  liquid on them (watch video). 
  • Cover and cook on high for 1.5 hrs. or low for about 2.5 hours (low turns out much better!). Lift lid off when done and gently stir so bottom of bread pudding is mixed with top pieces (bottom will be wetter so better if gently stirred before serving).
  • Melt a cup of vanilla or cream cheese frosting and pour over the top of each serving.
