- Add rum and ignite. Cook rum sauce until the flames have disappeared and the sugar is dissolved (about 2 minutes).
- Pour sauce over cooled bread pudding and serve at room temperature.
Really good base Challah Bread Pudding Recipe although I like mine less bread and more custardy. I doubled everything but the bread and used an old fashioned wide loaf pan… maximizing the custard. The rum sauce was also doubled flaming off each rum in single recipe parts) — just make sure the brown sugar is dissolved before flaming and pour the rum gentle keeping it mostly surfaced and it flames more easily. This rum sauce is much easier than the ones with syrup and cream … and it tastes like the rum (I used captain morgan’s Spiced Rum Special Reserve in the dark rectangular bottle) and it came out very tasty! I served it with vanilla bean ice cream with more rum sauce on top… OUTSTANDING!
