Tips:

  • Use stale bread: Stale bread absorbs the custard better than fresh bread, resulting in a richer, more flavorful bread pudding.
  • Don't overmix the custard: Overmixing the custard can make it tough. Stir just until the ingredients are combined.
  • Bake the bread pudding in a water bath: This helps to create a moist, evenly cooked bread pudding.
  • Let the bread pudding cool before serving: This allows the flavors to develop and the bread pudding to set.
  • Serve the bread pudding with your favorite toppings: Some popular toppings include whipped cream, ice cream, fresh berries, and caramel sauce.
