Individual Goat Cheese and Rosemary Bread Puddings
- about 1/4 pound country-style bread with crust
- 6 ounces aged goat cheese (such as Coach Farm)
- 1 tablespoon fresh rosemary leaves
- 2 large eggs
- 1 cup heavy cream
- 1/2 cup milk
- Preheat oven to 350F and butter six 1/2-cup ramekins.
- Discard crust from bread and tear enough bread into large pieces to measure 2 1/2 cups.
- Cut away rind from goat cheese, discarding it, and crumble cheese into 1/4-inch pieces.
- Mince rosemary leaves.
- In a food processor pulse bread in 2 batches until mostly coarse crumbs (there will be some fine crumbs).
- In a bowl toss together bread crumbs, goat cheese, and rosemary leaves.
- In a large bowl whisk together eggs, cream, milk, and salt and pepper to taste and stir in bread crumb mixture until combined well.
- Divide mixture evenly among ramekins.
- Put ramekins in a roasting pan and add enough hot water to pan to reach halfway up sides of ramekins.
- Bake puddings in middle of oven until puffed and golden, about 35 minutes.
- Transfer ramekins to a rack and cool puddings 10 minutes (puddings will sink as they cool).
- Serve puddings warm.
