This recipe looks delicious, but I don't have any dried apricots. Can I use something else instead?

This recipe is missing some key ingredients. It doesn't call for any eggs or milk.

I followed the recipe exactly, but my bread pudding didn't turn out as creamy as I hoped. I'm not sure what went wrong.

This was a bit too sweet for my taste, but I think I'll try it again with less sugar.

This was a great way to use up some leftover bread. I had some stale French bread and I didn't know what to do with it. This recipe was the perfect solution!
