Bread pudding is a popular dessert to serve at holiday meals. What’s your best bread pudding recipe to make that doesn’t require too much work?
You can go a million ways with bread pudding.
The batter starts with eggs, milk or cream, sometimes butter and a sweetener like sugar, brown sugar, honey, maple syrup or agave syrup. From there you can go crazy. Almost any type of black liquor: whiskey, brandy, rum, whatever you like can also be used. Pumpkin puree, brown butter, vanilla, sweet spices like cinnamon, clove, nutmeg and chai spices are also welcome. I also saw a matcha bread pudding once. Use your imagination.
Once you’ve sorted the dough, select a loaf. Challah bread is popular, as is brioche. Donuts, cookies, croissants, cinnamon rolls, and even sourdough can end up in a bread pudding. Just make sure the bread is dry, so it doesn’t turn to mush. Additions, like nuts, chocolate chips, apples, pineapple, just about anything you fancy, will give your bread pudding a welcome flavor and texture.
The first thought that came to mind was bread pudding (my traditional way of trying to get rid of anything resembling bread that I have too much of). I guess it’s on my mind because I did it last weekend and it was good.
I added dried apricots, cranberries, and raisins, along with the traditional milk, sugar, eggs, vanilla, and butter. However, since donuts already contain sugar and are coated in sugar, I would drastically reduce the amount of sugar you use (unless you like sugar comas). 🙂 Here is a very good bread pudding recipe. I added a pinch of freshly ground nutmeg. Delicious.
Another idea would be to just freeze them, then eat one every day (no cheating now), until you gain 25 pounds (as expected). I’m not sure you have the will for that, though. If you don’t like this idea, you can take them to the office and leave them near the coffee maker. I guarantee they will disappear the next time you take your next cup. People at work, no matter where you work or what country you live in, are like vultures. They will literally eat anything
What can you do with leftover chocolate chip scones? Is there a bread budding recipe that could be adapted?
Almost any bread pudding recipe can be adapted.
I use leftover stale donuts/cookies to make bread pudding. I’ve been making this for so long that I cut them into 1-2 inch pieces, put them in a buttered casserole dish either small or large enough to fill about 3/4 of the way and just watch the rest, based on the size of the flat.
Here’s a recipe that might work:
INGREDIENTS-
4 cups bread, cut into 1 1/2 inch cubes
1/4 cup currants
¼ cup walnuts
2 cups of milk
1/4 cup butter
1/2 cup sugar
2 large eggs, lightly beaten
1 tablespoon of vanilla extract
1/4 teaspoon ground nutmeg
1/4 teaspoon real cinnamon
1. Heat the oven to 350°F. Grease a 1 1/2 quart saucepan; put aside.Combine bread cubes and raisins in prepared casserole; put aside.Combine milk and 1/4 cup butter in a 1-quart saucepan. Cook over medium heat for 4 to 7 minutes or until the butter is melted. Cool slightly.
2. Combine all remaining pudding ingredients in bowl; mix well. Add milk mixture; mix well. Pour the milk mixture over the bread cubes. Bake for 40 to 45 minutes or until center is set. Divide hot pudding into individual dessert dishes. Keep refrigerated.

Is bread pudding a healthy food?
There is something like healthy or unhealthy food. What really matters is the amount of food. If you eat too many apples at once, it won’t be the best choice. We can eat anything in moderation if we are healthy. You can have your bread pudding if you like it. You can also add ingredients that increase the nutritional value, or change some ingredients for better alternatives…there is no set recipe. You can use cottage cheese or ricotta, and this is how you increase the amount of protein. And protein is good if you eat carb flour because it helps lower the glycemic index. A similar effect has fiber, so you can sweeten cottage cheese with mashed banana instead of sugar. And fiber isn’t all you get, there are also vitamins and minerals. So enjoy your food and remember, moderation is key.
