Bread Pudding

61 Comments

Don’t throw out your bread when it gets stale, make this addicting Bread Pudding instead. Full of torn bread pieces, raisins, cinnamon, milk and baked in the oven. This has ingredients you probably already have on hand and you can easily cut this recipe in half and bake it in an 8” square pan instead.

Place the torn bread pieces into

a 9” x 13” casserole dish.

Drizzle melted butter over the top.

Sprinkle raisins over the top.

In a bowl whisk together

the eggs and milk.

Add the cinnamon, sugar and

vanilla and beat until well mixed.

Pour the egg mixture over the bread.

Pressing down with a fork, make sure

all of the bread is soaking up the liquid.

Bake in preheated 350 degree oven for

45 minutes or until the center springs back

when lightly pressed. Serve warm or cold

and refrigerate any leftovers.

  9. Thanks for this. I love bread pudding, all kinds….and stratas, etc. My Mom used to make one for Christmas morning with green chilis, bread, cheese, etc. and serve homemade salsa to put on top.

  11. Been making it since my childhood next to mum. I made it first time in two years tonight for desert using 6 eggs and milk into custard with sugar and then over white bread cut of crusts for hens . Bake same as you say but I add marmalade in my recipe too. We never used raisins as it causes air bubbles . Mine bakes and vanishes before it even has time to cool .

  22. This bread pudding is very popular in Virginia – I can’t have it because of dietary restrictions – but it was nice to see how this is made
