Butternut Squash and Leek Bread Pudding Recipe image

You can simplify this side dish by using just one cheese, but the blend of all three will earn it (and you!) celebrity status.

Yield 8 servings

Number Of Ingredients 12

4 tablespoons unsalted butter, plus more for pan
12 cups (1" pieces) brioche (from about 2 loaves)
1 small butternut squash (about 1 1/2 lb.), peeled, seeds removed, cut into 1/2" pieces
2 large leeks, white and pale green parts only, halved lengthwise, cut into 1/2" pieces
1 teaspoon thyme leaves
2 teaspoons kosher salt, plus more
4 large eggs
3 cups heavy cream
3 cups whole milk
1 teaspoon sugar
1 1/2 cups coarsely grated Emmenthal cheese, Comté, and/or aged Gouda, divided
Crème fraîche and fennel fronds (for serving)

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350°F. Butter a 13x9" glass or ceramic baking dish; set aside. Spread out brioche on a large rimmed baking sheet and bake, tossing halfway through, until golden brown and crisp, 25-30 minutes. Let cool, then transfer to a large bowl.
  • Heat remaining 4 Tbsp. butter in a large skillet over medium. Cook squash, leeks, and thyme, stirring occasionally until squash is tender, 10-12 minutes. Mix in a pinch of cayenne; season with salt. Transfer to bowl with brioche.
  • Whisk eggs, cream, milk, sugar, 2 tsp. salt, and a pinch of cayenne in a large bowl to combine.
  • Add 1 cup cheese to bowl with brioche and toss to evenly distribute. Transfer to prepared baking dish and pour 5 cups egg mixture over; gently press bread into liquid to coat. Pour remaining egg mixture over and let sit 15 minutes.
  • Scatter remaining 1/2 cup cheese over bread pudding and bake until puffed and custard is set in the center, 60-75 minutes. Let cool at least 10 minutes before serving.

AUTUMN BUTTERNUT SQUASH BREAD

This is a great, moist spice bread I made to use up some of my leftover plain roasted squash(but you could use any squash puree) You could also add apple chunks, or raisins in place of nuts. I don't like breads really sweet, so add another 1/2 C sugar if you do.
