Brioche Buttermilk Bread Pudding with Dark Chocolate for Two
Ingredients
- 3 stale brioche buns or rolls
- 2 large eggs
- 3/4 cup buttermilk
- 2 tbsp. dark brown sugar
- 1 tbsp. maple syrup
- 2 tsp. vanilla extract
- 1/2 tsp. almond extract
- 1/4 tsp. fine sea salt
- 4 ounce dark chocolate bar, roughly chopped
- Flaked sea salt
Directions
Preheat oven to 350F.
Tear the buns or rolls into 2-inch pieces and place into a 7-inch skillet or oven-proof dish. If the brioche isn’t stale you can’t toast it in a 250F oven on a sheet tray for 20-25 minutes to dry it out.
In a 2-cup liquid measuring cup add the eggs, buttermilk, brown sugar, maple, vanilla, almond and salt. Whisk together then pour over the brioche and let sit for 5 minutes. Add in 3/4’s of the chopped chocolate and toss to combine the sprinkle the top with the remaining pieces and a large pinch of flaked sea salt.
Bake for 20-25 minutes or until puffed, golden brown on top and set in the middle.
Remove and let cool slightly before serving. Top with vanilla ice cream or whipped cream if desired.
