Instructions:
-
Preheat oven: Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) to ensure it’s ready for baking perfection.

Prepare custard: In a small saucepan, bring the milk and light brown sugar to a gentle simmer, stirring constantly until the sugar is completely dissolved, infusing the milk with sweet caramel flavors.

Whisk egg: In a separate small bowl, beat the large egg until it’s light and frothy, ready to enrich your custard.
-
Combine custard: Gradually whisk the hot milk mixture into the beaten egg, ensuring a smooth and creamy custard that will perfectly coat your bread pudding.

Pour custard: Carefully pour the custard mixture evenly over the bread cubes in the pie plate, allowing it to seep into every crevice and ensure maximum flavor infusion.

Top with pecans: Sprinkle the remaining 1/4 cup of pecans over the top of the bread pudding, adding a delightful crunch and visual appeal to your creation.

Bake: Place the assembled bread pudding in the preheated oven and bake until it’s beautifully puffed and crusty on top, approximately 25 minutes of baking bliss.
