Savory Bread Pudding with Spinach and Brie

Ingredients

  • 3 eggs
  • 1 deciliter cream 100g, ½ US cup
  • 2 deciliters milk 200g, 1 US cup
  • 1 small bunch of sage
  • 300 g spinach approximately
  • ½ loaf of stale bread torn
  • Salt and pepper
  • 1 small wheel of Brie
  • Honey
  • Olive oil

Instructions

  • In a bowl, whisk together the eggs, cream, and milk with a dash of salt. Set aside. If preparing ahead of time, refrigerate the mixture.
  • Heat a bit of olive oil in a frying pan over medium-high heat. Remove the sage leaves from the stem and fry them in the olive oil until wilted. Add the spinach to the pan one handful at a time, allowing it to wilt slightly before adding the next handful. Once all the spinach is soft and wilted, season to taste with salt and remove from heat.
  • In a casserole pan, layer torn bread, followed by dots of spinach, and repeat until all the bread and spinach are used.
  • Pour the egg mixture over the top of the bread and spinach layers.
  • Slice the Brie into thick slices and arrange them over the top of the bread. Drizzle with honey and crack black pepper over the surface.
  • Bake at 350°F (175°C) for 45 minutes or until deeply browned and bubbling.
  • Serve warm or at room temperature. Enjoy!
