GOAT CHEESE BREAD PUDDING

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350°F Lightly grease a 13x9x2 baking dish.
• Whisk together milk, eggs, rosemary and salt and pepper to taste.
• Place bread in a bowl. Sprinkle with cheese. Drizzle over egg mixture and toss to be sure all of the bread is coated with egg. Let stand 5-10 minutes to soften.
• Pack mixture into prepared pan. Bake 20-35 minutes, until golden brown and springy to touch. Allow to cool briefly before serving.

SAVORY BREAD PUDDING (SLOW COOKER)

Steps:

• In a skillet, heat oil over medium heat for 30 seconds. Add onion and cook, stirring, until softened, about 3 minutes. Add garlic, Italian seasoning, salt and peppercorns and cook, stirring, for 1 minute. Add tomatoes with juice and bring to a boil. Remove from heat and set aside.
• In a bowl, combine eggs and mustard. Beat to blend. Add milk and beat well. Set aside.
• Lightly grease the slow cooker stoneware. Spoon in one-third of the tomato mixture. Spread half the bread evenly over top and sprinkle evenly with half the cheese. Repeat, finishing with final third of tomato mixture. Pour milk mixture evenly over top.
• Place two clean tea towels, each folded in half (so you will have 4 layers), over top of stoneware to absorb the moisture. (This is to prevent accumulated moisture from dripping on the bread by absorbing the liquid generated during cooking).
• Cover and cook on low for 6 hours or high for 3 hours, until pudding is set and edges are browning.

GOAT CHEESE BREAD PUDDING

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350°F. Lightly grease a 9- by 9-inch or 11- by 7-inch baking dish. Set aside.
• Whisk together the milk, eggs, rosemary, and salt and pepper to taste in a medium bowl.
• Place bread cubes in another medium bowl. Sprinkle with the cheese and drizzle with the milk mixture, making sure to coat all the bread cubes well. Allow the bread cubes to soak for 5 to 10 minutes, until bread is moist.
• Pour bread mixture into the prepared dish and bake in the oven for 20 to 35 minutes, until the top is golden brown and gives resistance to the touch, or a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean. Remove from the oven and let cool for a few minutes before serving.

GOAT CHEESE AND PROSCIUTTO SAVORY BREAD PUDDING

Steps:

• Toast bread cubes in 350 degree oven for 10 minutes or so, stirring halfway through. Leave oven on at 350.
• In a bowl, mix together eggs, yolk, milk, and cream until thoroughly blended.
• In another bowl, toss together bread cubes, prosciutto, shallot, mushrooms, pine nuts, thyme, and pepper.
• Spray or lightly butter a 9x9 square baking pan and pour in the bread mixture, pat to distribute evenly. Crumble the chevre over all and mix in slightly with hands.
• Pour egg mixture over bread cubes. Sprinkle with shredded cheese such as parmesan or gruyere, for a golden crust.
• Bake in a 350 degree oven for 30-40 minutes, or it springs back when you poke it in the middle. Alternately, when a thermometer inserted into center reads above 145 degrees it is done.
