Instructions:
-
Preheat Oven: Preheat your oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit (175 degrees Celsius).
-
Prepare Pan: Line the bottom of a 10″ x 13″ x 3″ pan with half of the white bread.
-
Layer Ingredients: Evenly sprinkle half of the julienne apricots and half of the shredded coconut over the white bread. Top with the remaining bread cubes, apricots, and coconut. Distribute evenly.
-
Prepare Milk Mixture: In a saucepan, heat the milk, cream of coconut, vanilla extract, and granulated sugar until the sugar completely dissolves and the mixture is tepid but not hot. Stir occasionally. Remove from heat.
-
Beat Eggs: In a separate mixing bowl, beat the eggs. Slowly temper the eggs by adding 1 cup of the warm milk mixture while stirring continuously.
-
Combine Mixtures: Slowly pour the egg/milk mixture back into the warm milk mixture, stirring until well incorporated.
-
Pour Over Bread: Ladle the mixture over the bread in the pan, ensuring all the bread gets moistened.
-
Bake: Cover the pan with foil and place it in a water bath. Bake for 1 hour. Then, remove the foil and bake for an additional 5-10 minutes until golden.
-
Serve: Serve the Coconut Bread Pudding warm, accompanied by a scoop of vanilla ice cream on one side and whipped cream on the other. Sprinkle the whipped cream with chocolate shavings and dust the bread pudding with powdered sugar. Finish with toasted coconut on the ice cream for an extra touch of flavor.
