I was asked about my Apple Chili Breadpudding

 So here it is.   Chili, Chilis, Chilies etc however you like to spell them!

Nothing with this recipe is exact except maybe the sauce.   I play with the measurements.  If I want it boozy I replace a little of the milk with some apple schnapps.

I don't have nuts listed but you can add them.

Chili Apple Bread Pudding

1 -- 10 ounce loaf stale French bread, crumble (6 - 8 cups of any bread)
3 -- cups milk 
1 -- cup heavy cream
2 -- cups sugar
8 -- T butter, melted
3 -- eggs
2 -- T Vanilla +
1 -- can apple pie filling (or more)
1 -- small can diced green (Hatch) chilis  (You can omit them here and just have them in the sauce)
1 tsp cinnamon
1/8 tsp nutmeg

First mix Cinnamon & sugar if using. Combine all ingredients, mixture should be very moist (like oatmeal) but not soupy. Like a slushy jiggle. Pour into buttered 9 X 12" or larger baking dish. (Use disposable aluminum pan) Place into non-preheated oven. Bake at 350º for approximately one hour and 15 minutes... until top is golden brown. Serve warm with sauce.


Apple Chili Sauce

1 -- 12 ounce can of filtered frozen apple juice concentrate (thawed)
1 T lemon juice 
2 tsp cornstarch
1 T light corn syrup
3 Anaheim chilis (charred, peeled and diced into small pieces) (Or a can or two)

Thanks-sounds fantastic!!!

Ooooh, lovely.  I'm going to have to spring this on somebody.  :)

Oooops!

I forgot the sauce instructions:

Put all ingredients except chilies into a small saucepan. Whisk to dissolve the cornstarch. Put on medium high heat whisking occasionally. Reduce to one cup. Remove from heat and add chilies. Refrigerate.

Make more for more!  I like to double it.

Sounds really good, I'll give it a try.

That sound so good. I've been looking for a dessert with a different twist to it!
