Cannabis Comfort Food: Canna-Butter Bread Pudding

Canna-Butter Bread Pudding with a little half-and-half.

I love bread pudding anyway, especially in cooler weather, so infusing one of my favorite recipes with cannabis was an easy no-brainer. This is a great way to use up the heals of the loaf nobody eats.

Canna-Butter Bread Pudding

6 slices day-old bread
2 tablespoons canna-butter, melted
1/2 cup raisins (optional)
4 eggs, beaten
2 cups milk
3/4 cup sugar
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1 teaspoon vanilla extract

Directions
Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).

Grease an 8-inch square baking dish. Break bread into small pieces into the dish. Drizzle melted butter or margarine over bread. If desired, sprinkle with raisins.

In a medium mixing bowl, combine eggs, milk, sugar, cinnamon, and vanilla. Beat until well mixed. Pour over bread, and lightly push down with a fork until bread is covered and soaking up the egg mixture. If your bread is particularly dry or dense, wait 10-15 minutes before baking to allow the bread to soak up more of the egg-milk mixture.

Bake in the preheated oven for 45 minutes, or until the top springs back when lightly tapped. Refrigerate any leftovers.

Variations:

If you like nuts, like I do, try using bread with nuts and seeds in it. Raisin-nut bread is awesome!
Substituting brown sugar for some or all of the white sugar will give it a richer, more caramel flavor.
Nut milk (almond, coconut) works just fine.
Substitute craisins for raisins, or leave them out altogether.
Increase potency by adding more canna-butter. I’ve used up to 4 tablespoons.
Serve warm with ice cream or half-and-half. Also delicious served cold right out of the refrigerator.

This is one of my favorite ways to medicate before bed. Helps me relax and gives me that warm, cozy, comfort I need. Yummy and easy on the budget.
