Fixed this recipe for a Mardi Gras party and it was a big hit. Works fine with canned peaches as well. Also used brown sugar in the sauce for extra flavor.
Consider cutting the sauce in 1/4 unless you like your pudding literally swimming in it. I think I only used about 1/4 cup for the entire pudding...
Best Best Best Bread pudding I have even eaten. I added 1/2 cup rasins.
Excellent and easy recipe to make. I followed the other users suggestions and I made only half the sauce. For me certainly plenty - but definitely easy enough to make a second half batch with the leftovers (if there are any!) if we need it. I too used canned peaches and only half the apples since we only had 2 left - but it was my first try making bread pudding and sure won't be my last. Thanks Suzanne!
This recipe is fabulous!!! I made it for a dinner party and my guests could not stop raving about it. Also the recipe can be made "healthier" without sacrificing the taste by substituting the butter for a low-fat butter substitute and the sugar with a sugar substitute. I've made both versions and cannot tell the difference between the two.
This bread pudding is REALLY good. With my cajun heritage and many travels to Louisianna I've had a chance to taste the best. This ranks among the best I've tasted. Substitute milk for heavy cream or half & half for a richer pudding.
Did it twice my family loved it once with canned peaches and the second time with canned apples.The canned apples turned out the best for me.It will be a staple in my dessert file
I gave this 5 stars even though I didn't thing it was outstanding. Now the sauce was outstanding and this made the dessert!!! I made this for x-mas and everyone seemed to enjoy it but I think I'll keep searching for another bread pudding. Please note that I used half a challah bread (10-12 oz) and it fit perfectly in the 9 x 13 pan.
Excellent bread pudding. I used canned peaches as others did and 2 apples that I cooked on the stove a little before I added them - just to make sure they wouldn't be crunchy. I'll definitely be making this again. My daughter loved it!
I did not care for this recipe.
