Equipment
- Baking dish (8x8 inches or similar)
- Mixing bowls
- Whisk
- Measuring cups and spoons
- Spatula
- Aluminum foil
Ingredients
- 6 cups day-old bread, cubed (preferably brioche or challah)
- 2 cups milk
- 1 cup heavy cream
- 1/2 cup cannabis-infused butter, melted
- 3/4 cup granulated sugar
- 4 large eggs
- 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
- 1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 1/4 teaspoon ground nutmeg
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 1/2 cup raisins (optional)
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
- Grease an 8x8 inch baking dish with some of the melted cannabis-infused butter.
- Place the cubed bread into the greased baking dish. If using raisins, sprinkle them evenly over the bread.
- In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the milk, heavy cream, remaining cannabis-infused butter, granulated sugar, eggs, vanilla extract, cinnamon, nutmeg, and salt until well combined.
- Pour the custard mixture over the bread cubes, ensuring all pieces are soaked. Press down lightly with a spatula to help the bread absorb the custard.
- Cover the baking dish with aluminum foil and bake in the preheated oven for 30 minutes.
- Remove the foil and continue baking for an additional 15 minutes, or until the top is golden brown and the custard is set.
- Allow the bread pudding to cool slightly before serving. Serve warm with a drizzle of caramel sauce or a scoop of ice cream if desired.
Notes
- Decarboxylation: Make sure your cannabis is decarboxylated before infusing it into the butter to activate the THC.
- Dosage: Adjust the amount of cannabis-infused butter according to your desired potency and tolerance.
- Storage: Store any leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. Reheat before serving.
