Ingredients
- 6 leftover waffles, cut into 1-inch pieces
- 2 cups whole milk
- 1 cup heavy cream
- 3 large eggs
- 1/2 cup granulated sugar
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 1/2 cup raisins (optional)
- 2 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease an 8x8-inch baking dish with butter.
- Place waffle pieces in the prepared dish. Sprinkle raisins over if using.
- In a medium bowl, whisk together milk, cream, eggs, sugar, vanilla, cinnamon, and salt until well combined.
- Pour the custard mixture evenly over the waffles. Gently press down to ensure all pieces are soaked. Let sit for 10 minutes.
- Drizzle melted butter over the top.
- Bake for 40-45 minutes until the pudding is set and the top is golden brown. A knife inserted in the center should come out clean.
- Let cool for 10 minutes before serving. Serve warm.
Tips
- Use stale waffles for best texture; fresh waffles can be toasted first.
- Substitute maple syrup for some sugar for a deeper flavor.
- Store leftovers in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. Reheat in the microwave or oven.
