Tips for Making Lemon Bread Pudding

  • Use fresh lemons for the best flavor. If you don't have fresh lemons, you can use bottled lemon juice, but the flavor will be less intense.
  • Don't overmix the batter. Overmixing can make the bread pudding tough.
  • Bake the bread pudding in a water bath. This will help to prevent the bread pudding from drying out.
  • Let the bread pudding cool completely before serving. This will allow the flavors to meld and the pudding to set.
  • Serve the bread pudding with a dollop of whipped cream or ice cream.
