Apple Pecan Bread Pudding
1 cup pecans, coarsely chopped
3 eggs
8 slices raisin bread, diced
2 cups half-and-half or milk
2 medium green apples
1/4 cup bourbon or brandy
1 cup granulated sugar
1/4 cup butter or margarine, melted
1 teaspoon cinnamon
Vanilla ice cream (optional)
1/2 teaspoon nutmeg
Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.
Spread pecans in a shallow baking pan and bake until golden, about 8 to 10 minutes, stirring occasionally.
Meanwhile, place bread cubes in a greased crockpot.
Peel, core and thinly slice the apples
Mix lightly together the sugar, cinnamon and nutmeg, add eggs and mix well. Blend in half-and-half or milk and then stir in bourbon or brandy.
Lightly mix pecans with bread and apples.
Pour egg mixture over bread. Drizzle with butter. Cover and cook on LOW until apples are tender when pierced and custard is set - about 3 1/2 to 4 1/2 hours. Let pudding stand, covered, for about 15 minutes.
Serve warm with ice cream, if desired.
