Tips:

  • Use stale bread for a more flavorful bread pudding. Fresh bread will make the pudding soggy.
  • Soak the bread in milk and eggs for at least 30 minutes, or up to overnight. This will help the bread absorb the flavors of the other ingredients and make it more tender.
  • Add your favorite spices, fruits, or nuts to the bread pudding batter. Some popular additions include cinnamon, nutmeg, raisins, cranberries, walnuts, and pecans.
  • Bake the bread pudding in a greased baking dish for 45-50 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
  • Serve the bread pudding warm with vanilla sauce, whipped cream, or ice cream.
