This bread pudding recipe isn't just another recipe; it’s a journey. It starts with humble ingredients—bread, milk, eggs—and transforms them into something extraordinary, something deeply satisfying. It's the kind of recipe that evokes memories of home, of family gatherings, of cozy evenings.
It's a recipe I perfected over many happy (and some less-than-happy) baking experiments. I remember one time, the bread was too dry—it ended up being a crumbly mess, a lesson learned the hard way! But through trial and error, through tasting and tweaking, I created this—a recipe that I'm genuinely excited to share with you.

🍽 Ingredients
📖 Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). This is crucial for even baking, so don't skip this step!
- In a large bowl, whisk together the eggs, sugar, milk, cream, vanilla extract, and spices. Make sure the sugar dissolves completely. This is your custard base—a creamy, dreamy foundation for our bread pudding.
- Cube your bread into 1-inch pieces. Don't make them too small, or they'll get mushy! And don't stress about perfect cubes—rustic charm is key.
- In a separate large bowl, gently toss the cubed bread with the custard mixture. Ensure all pieces are evenly coated. We don't want any dry spots!
- Pour the bread and custard mixture into a greased 9x13 inch baking dish. Spread it out evenly. I like to use a little extra butter—it never hurts!
- Bake in the preheated oven for 45-50 minutes, or until the pudding is set and the top is golden brown and slightly crispy. Use a toothpick or cake tester to check; it should come out clean.
- Let the bread pudding cool slightly before serving. A little warm is perfect, but trust me, it’s delicious even when cool. If it’s too hot, you’ll burn your mouth (speak from experience).
- Serve warm and enjoy! Top with a scoop of vanilla ice cream or a dollop of whipped cream for an extra touch of decadence. A sprinkle of cinnamon wouldn't hurt either—extra flavor is always welcome
📝 Notes
- For best results, use day-old bread. If your bread is fresh, you may need to toast it gently to dry it out slightly.
- Don't overmix the batter; a few lumps are okay.
- Feel free to experiment with different types of bread and add-ins!
