Ingredients
4 whole eggs
5 egg yolk
1 1/2 cup brown sugar, divided
2 cups whole milk
3 cups heavy cream, divided
1/2 cup butter, divided
1 tbsp vanilla extract
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 loaf (14-16 oz.) day-old French bread, torn into 1-inch pieces (about 10 cups)
3/4 cup toffee chips
3/4 cup chopped toasted pecans
Directions
- Preheat oven to 325°F and coat a 9x13-inch dish with cooking spray.
- Melt 1/4 cup butter in a small microwave-safe bowl. In a large bowl, whisk the eggs, egg yolks and 3/4 cup brown sugar. Stir in the milk, 2 cups cream, 1/4 melted butter, vanilla, and salt. Add bread cubes and toss to coat. Let sit for 20 minutes, stirring occasionally.
- Gently stir 1⁄2 cup each toffee chips and pecans into the bread mixture and pour into the prepared baking dish. Spread evenly and scatter the remaining 1/4 cup each toffee chips and pecans on top.
- Place the dish on a rimmed baking sheet; bake until custard has just set, and bread pudding is lightly browned and puffy, about 45-55 minutes. (Instant-read thermometer inserted into center should read 165°F.) Transfer to wire rack and cool for 30 minutes.
- To make the sauce, combine 1 cup heavy cream, 1/4 cup butter, and 3/4 cup brown sugar in a medium saucepan over medium heat. Bring to a boil, stirring constantly. Reduce to low and simmer 10-15 minutes until the sauce is slightly thickened.
