Pear Bread Pudding
A flavorful touch is added to this comforting bread pudding made with artisan-style bread by slicing pears and adding Poire William (pear brandy).
Set the oven to 400 degrees Fahrenheit (200 degrees C).
Stir the brown sugar, 1/4 cup white sugar, flour, cinnamon, and salt in a medium bowl.
Just until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs, stir in the butter and 1 tablespoon of vanilla.
Place aside.
Eggs are whisked together in a different bowl.
1 cup of half-and-half and white sugar 1 teaspoon each of salt and vanilla pear brandy
