SAN FRANCISCO SOURDOUGH BREAD PUDDING WITH AMARETTO SAUCE
After trying numerous bread pudding recipes, I attempted to create my own, using flavors that I love. The sourdough adds to the recipe without being overwhelming, and the amaretto brings a light almond flavoring to the top. My family enjoys it, and I hope you do as well.

BEST BREAD PUDDING WITH VANILLA SAUCE
We found this recipe tucked inside my mom's Bible when going through her things. It has become a family tradition on the first snow day of the year and if that doesn't happen, which can be the case here in central Virginia, we know it'll be the featured dessert at Easter and anytime a comfort food is in order.
