Bourbon-Infused Coconut Pecan Bread Pudding

Ingredients

- 2 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 tablespoon baking powder
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1 cup whole milk
- 1/2 cup unsalted butter, melted
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 3 large eggs
- 1 cup granulated sugar
- 1/2 cup golden raisins
- 1/4 cup Bourbon
- 1/4 cup white grape juice
- 1 cup unsweetened shredded coconut
- 1 cup pecans, chopped

Instructions

1. Preheat the Oven
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C), ensuring even heating for baking.

2. Prepare the Soaking Mixture
In a small bowl, soak the golden raisins in the Bourbon and white grape juice for at least 15 minutes. This will infuse the raisins with rich flavors.

3. Combine Dry Ingredients
In a medium bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, baking powder, and salt until well blended.

4. Mix Wet Ingredients
In a large mixing bowl, combine the whole milk, melted unsalted butter, vanilla extract, and eggs. Mix until uniform.

5. Incorporate Sugar
Gradually add the granulated sugar into the wet mixture, whisking until completely dissolved.

6. Combine Wet and Dry Mixtures
Slowly add the dry ingredients to the wet mixture, stirring gently until no lumps remain and a smooth batter forms.

7. Add Flavors and Enhancements
Fold in the soaked golden raisins (along with any remaining liquid), shredded coconut, and chopped pecans, ensuring even distribution throughout the batter.

8. Prepare Baking Dish
Grease a 9x13-inch baking dish with butter or a non-stick spray to prevent sticking.

9. Pour and Bake
Pour the batter into the prepared baking dish. Spread it evenly using a spatula. Bake in the preheated oven for 40-45 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.

10. Cooling
Allow the bread pudding to cool in the pan for about 10 minutes before serving. This helps it set slightly and makes serving easier.
