Ingredients:
- 8 cups bread, cubed
- 3 eggs
- 3 tablespoons butter, melted
- 1 cup vanilla yogurt
- 1 cup milk
- 2 cups sugar
- 2 cups fresh peaches, peeled, pitted, and diced
- ½ cup pecans, chopped
- 1 teaspoon cinnamon
- Caramel sauce:
- 1 cup unsalted butter
- 1 cup heavy cream
- 1 cup brown sugar
Directions:
1. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Spray a 9x13-inch baking dish with cooking spray.
2. In a large bowl, beat 3 eggs. Add melted butter, yogurt, and milk. Slowly add 2 cups sugar, stirring until dissolved. Stir in diced peaches and cubed bread, mixing until well combined. Allow the mixture to soak into the bread for about 30 minutes.
3. In a small bowl, combine 2 tablespoons sugar and cinnamon.
4. Pour the bread mixture into the prepared baking dish. Sprinkle evenly with the cinnamon sugar mixture. Cover loosely with buttered foil.
5. Bake for 20 minutes covered. Remove the foil, sprinkle with chopped pecans, and bake uncovered until the top is golden brown and the center is set, about 20-25 minutes longer.
6. While the bread pudding is baking, prepare the caramel sauce. In a heavy saucepan over medium-low heat, stir together the butter, heavy cream, and brown sugar. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat to low and simmer until the sauce thickens, about 5 minutes.
7. Serve the warm bread pudding drizzled with caramel sauce and topped with vanilla ice cream.
