Eggnog Bread Pudding image

This bread pudding is perfect for serve during the holidays, but it's delicious any time of the year. Because it serves 20, it's great as part of a buffet or to take as part of a potluck. The recipe is from a December 1985 issue of Bon Appetit magazine, in the "Cooking for Friends" section. Soaking time for bread is not included in prep time.

This recipe is easy to follow and the bread pudding turned out great! I used a gluten-free bread and it still came out moist and delicious.

This bread pudding was a bit too eggnog-y for my taste, but my husband loved it. I think next time I'll use less eggnog and more milk.
