1/4 cup butter, melted
1/2 cup coarsely chopped pecans
1 cup raisins
1 cup brown sugar
2 teaspoons pumpkin pie spice
3 eggs
2 cups half-and-half
Directions:

4. Toss the bread and apples with the melted butter.
5. Dump in the pecans, raisins, and brown sugar, and sprinkle in the pumpkin pie spice.
6. Stir gingerly to distribute the ingredients evenly.
7. In a mixing bowl, whisk together the eggs and half-and-half, and pour evenly over the top.
8. Cover and cook on LOW for 4-5 hours, or on HIGH for 3-4 hours.
9. Your pudding is done when it has browned on top and pulled away from the sides.
