Recipe View
Heat olive oil in a cast iron pan or oven-safe skillet over medium heat. Add chopped onion and minced rosemary, cooking until the onion is softened and fragrant (about 5-7 minutes).
03 Step
Recipe View
In a large bowl, toss the cubed bread with the sautéed onion and rosemary mixture. Ensure the bread is evenly coated with the infused oil.
04 Step
Recipe View
Transfer the bread mixture to a well-oiled, deep-sided 9-inch square baking pan. Sprinkle half of the shredded or crumbled cheese evenly over the bread. Reserve the remaining cheese for the top.
05 Step
Recipe View
In a separate bowl, whisk together the eggs, heavy cream, and milk until well combined. Season generously with salt and freshly ground black pepper.
06 Step
Recipe View
Pour the egg mixture evenly over the bread in the pan, ensuring that the bread is moistened but some pieces still peek out above the custard. Sprinkle the remaining cheese over the top.
07 Step
Recipe View
Bake in the preheated oven for 50-60 minutes, or until the bread pudding is golden brown and a knife inserted into the center comes out clean (except for melted cheese).
08 Step
Recipe View
Let the bread pudding cool slightly before slicing and serving. Garnish with fresh rosemary sprigs, if desired.
For a richer flavor, use a combination of cheeses such as Gruyère, cheddar, and Parmesan.
If you don't have fresh rosemary, 1 tablespoon of dried rosemary can be used (but fresh is preferred).
Feel free to add other vegetables to the bread pudding, such as sautéed mushrooms, spinach, or bell peppers.
To prevent the top from browning too quickly, tent the bread pudding with foil during the last 15 minutes of baking.
This bread pudding can be assembled ahead of time and refrigerated for up to 24 hours before baking. Add an extra 10-15 minutes to the baking time if baking from cold.
