Peanut Butter Jam Pudding Recipes

PEANUT BUTTER AND JELLY PUDDING

Steps:

• Heat 4 cups of the milk in a large saucepan over medium heat until steaming.
• Whisk the sugar, cornstarch and 1/2 teaspoon salt in a large bowl. Whisk in the egg yolks and the remaining 1/2 cup milk.
• Whisk half of the hot milk into the egg mixture until smooth, then gradually whisk the egg-milk mixture into the saucepan. Cook over medium heat, whisking constantly, until the mixture boils. Continue to cook, whisking constantly, until it has thickened to a puddinglike consistency, 3 to 4 minutes. Remove from the heat and stir in the vanilla extract.
• Cool slightly, stirring a few times to prevent a skin from forming. Place a piece of plastic wrap directly on top of the pudding and refrigerate until completely cooled and thickened, about 4 hours.
• Before serving, whisk the pudding vigorously until smooth and creamy. Gently fold in the grapes, peanuts and peanut butter chips. Spoon the pudding into six to eight individual cups and top each with a single whole grape.

PB AND J BREAD CRUST PUDDING

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Lightly butter a 13 by-9-inch baking pan.
• Put 2 cups milk, the eggs, peanut butter, sugar, vanilla, and salt into a blender and blend until smooth, taking care that the peanut butter is thoroughly emulsified into the mixture. Pour into a large bowl, then whisk in the remaining 2 cups milk. Stir in the bread and set aside to soak for about 10 minutes. Pour this mixture into the prepared baking pan. Place spoonfuls of your favorite jelly, jam, or preserves around the bread mixture, pushing them in a bit with your spoon. Bake for about 45 minutes, or until the pudding is browned, puffed, and a little firm. Let cool. Cut into squares to serve.

• Using the bread, peanut butter and jam/jelly, make 4 sandwiches.
• Cut each sandwich into quarters, then cut each quarter into 4 more pieces.

• If using, scatter the chocolate chips or dried fruit among the sandwich pieces.
• In a medium bowl, whisk together the eggs, milk and pumpkin pie spice (or cinnamon).
• Pour the egg mixture over the sandwich pieces.
• Press the bread gently with a fork to help it absorb the liquid.
• Bake for 20-25 min, or until egg is nearly set.
• Remove the pan from the oven, and scatter the top of the pudding with the sugar.
• Increase the oven to broil, and cook until the sugar on top begins to caramelize, about 1 minute Watch it closely to prevent burning.
• Serve drizzled with maple syrup.
