This is my own recipe as far as I know. It sooo good,,but not for those watching calories!!! ( Everyone should have a holiday treat!)

1 loaf French or Italian bread,toen in bites(let the kids help)
11/2 sticks BUTTER
1/2 teas.ground cinnamon
dash of salt
1cup raisins(golden ones look so pretty)
1/2 to 1 cup chopped pecans(I like a lot)
1 teas.orange zest
1quart size carton of egg nog
Mix all this together and pour the egg nog on,about a cup at a time so it absorbs and use what you need to make a "sloppy" mess.Pour into a shallow baking dish or ramekins and bake at 350 til brown on top and bubbly.
SAUCE
1 /2 stick butter
1 cup brown sugar
1/4 cup milk
1 teas.vanilla
Melt butter and brown sugar in a saucepan add milk and boil until thick enough for a sauce,about the consistency of gravy,but dont overcook or you will have sticky chewy stuff instead of sauce.Stirn in vanilla and pour into a container for pouring. Dont pour the suace on until you are ready to serve or it all soaks in. You onle need a small amount. This is also good with vanilla ice cream!!! SHUT MY MOUTH!!! YUMMM!

That looks so YUMMY!

Why did my Dr. tell me to lose a few pounds? I would love to try this because bread pudding is a favorite of mine, topped with real whipped cream!! Sigh......

Oops double posted!

Oh, my, I was raised on Bread Pudding. Never thought to use Egg Nog, I'll try that. I add a little bit of Pine Nuts when I happen to have some, but this looks yummy just as it is.

This sounds awesome!

Yum it looks good bet it taste better. I wonder what would happen if you used home made bread? I just baked a couple of loaves a few days ago and I don't feel like going to the store hmmm maybe I will try it. But for Christmas Eve I definately am trying your receipe looks scrumptious. Thanks for sharing.

Any bread will work...the home made would be great,,just any nice bodied bread is best.

I can just taste that already. Bread pudding with a praline sauce is good too.

Thanks for Sharing.

YUMMMMMMMMMMMMMMM!!!!!!!!!! I just made bread pudding yesterday with the vanilla sauce for drizzling over it when you're ready to eat it. It is the Biltmore recipe. It is marvelous! But with the eggnog, this one will have to be tried also. It sounds devine. Already have the recipe copied off! Thank you!!!!!!!!! Merry Christmas!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! :thumbup:
