Does anyone have a really good bread pudding recipe they would like to share? I have tried many but still have not found the perfect recipe yet.

Here's my favorite. I love custardy bread pudding and this is light. Give it a try.

This is my favorite!!!!

Wish I could see your recipe. My computer has fits with it and won't open it. Hmmm...

cannot open both of them........

I can't either!

I'll check back later to see if the links will open. Thanks ladies I'm sure they'll be yummy.

Here's Joani2s (I can't open Ellageo's either)



Overnight Bread Pudding

½ loaf of thick slices of bread, cut into 9 pieces. (I use Texas style bread.)
3 cups milk 2 Tbsp. sugar
Liberal nutmeg & cinnamon 6 large eggs
1 Tbsp. vanilla extract 2 Tbsp. butter or margarine

Grease 9x13 baking dish. Arrange bread in a single layer in the greased
pan, squeeze slices to fit. In a large bowl whisk milk, eggs, sugar and vanilla
until blended. Pour evenly over bread. Sprinkle cinnamon & nutmeg over top.
Cover and refrigerate overnight.

To serve. Heat oven to 350. Uncover baking dish. Dot top with butter or
margarine and bake 45 minutes or until set and light golden brown.

NOW.how about a good vanilla sauce to go with that pudding....

I was able to download, and retyped, so here it is:

BREAD PUDDING WITH LEMON SAUCE

4 Cups hamburger buns – NOT FRESH
1 Cup sugar
2 Cups whole milk
½ stick butter or margarine
¼ Cup raisins or dried cranberries
1 teaspoon Vanilla
2 Beaten eggs

Crumble bread in mixing bowl. Add milk, let sit until bread is soft. Add sugar, melted margarine or butter, and eggs. Mix well.

Add raisins or cranberries and fold in. DOT NOT STIR
Butter a 9” baking glass dish. Pour mixture into the dish and bake at 350 degrees for 45 minutes or until top is brown.

TIP: Milk MUST be whole milk or canned milk. Otherwise, pudding will fall after removing from the oven. Old biscuits cause pudding to be heavy, loaf bread tends to be too thin.

LEMON SAUCE:
In a saucepan combine:
1/3 Cup sugar
2 ½ teaspoon cornstarch
Add ½ cup water, ¼ cup Real Lemon juice, and one egg yolk. Mix well.
Over medium heat, cook and stir until thick. Remove, stir in 1 Tablespoon butter or margarine until melted.

Use for topping on bread pudding

Sounds good

Thank You !! for retyping!! I sew better than I 'compute'!!
& this is a delish recipe!!

Thanks for the recipe. It reads almost like my Mother's. There is only one thing different. She used leftover biscuits. She also made a brown sugar sauce as a topping. I do have a problem with her recipe. Nothing was measured and everything was made from scratch. Oh No. Am I giving my age away?

Mizoodie, thanks for the reciept. I love bread pudding and have never made it before. Can't wait to try it.
Connie

Thank you all for the responses. Bread pudding is one of my favorites. I think I could eat a whole pan all by myself. I will definitely try these out.

You can access Betty Crocker online and there is a great bread pudding recipe with a great sauce to go with it.

i like to use brown sugar in the bread pudding also rasins, yummy

Same here!! Hummmm

Try RecipeLion.com or TasteofHome.com. They both have some excellent bread pudding recipes. Even a slow cooker one that is great.

I didn't know how to add my recipe for Bread Pudding here, but it did go to the recipe file....Good and easy recipe, so take a look there and enjoy! figured it out...so here goes nothing.

There used to be a cafeteria style dining place near our old home called Duff's. DH would take us there on Sunday after church because the kids would always eat what they took and it wasn't too bad on the wallet for a large family. This was my favorite sweet item on their menu and it always smelled just wonderful. I still make it but cut the recipe in half for just the two of us. I had to experiment with and alter alot of recipes before I got one that tasted genuine to the original. Hope you enjoy it. Ann in TN
