I have never had bread pudding
This recipe sounded really good. Is this the same procedure/steps you would do with other bread puddings.

Stacy, my mom made giant bowls of this stuff. It was one of my favorite's. I don't have her recipe, but I highly reccommend trying it! I remember she laid the bread out the night before so it would get stale. Then I remember her sinking each slice into the pudding batter. What memories!!!

Bread Pudding was a "staple" in our house when I was growing up. Mom always used big cubes of day-old bread, and soaked it in the custard before baking it, and the pudding always puffed up like a soufflé. I make mine that way, too.

That recipe looks good, but I'm sure I would make it with bread, not crumbs. Just my three cents....

Hmmmmm! that recipe sounds yummy.

I'm from the south and i've never heard of bread pudding eigher.

I think we might need a few recipes for it on here.

I had made a chocolate bread pudding with bread crumbs and it was more like a pudding and less like what you might think of as bread pudding. It was from Richard Sax's book, "Classic Home Desserts: A Treasury of Heirloom and Comtemporary Recipes from Around the World."

I guess it depends whether you want to experiment or not. You can always seek out a different pumpkin bread pudding recipe.

I usually use slices of bread in bread pudding. Here is a basic recipe
Bread and Butter Pudding


Ingredients

9 slices of day old (slightly stale) white bread, thickly buttered
3 oz of sultanas, raisins or currants
3 oz sugar
2 large eggs
1 pint milk
1 oz butter
nutmeg or cinnamon



Method

1 Preheat oven to Gas mark 3 160°C 325°F.

2 Place the dried fruit in boiling water for 5 minutes

3 Beat the eggs in a bowl

4 Heat the milk, until just hot, then pour onto the eggs, beating the mixture together.

5 Trim the crusts from the bread. Cut the bread into quarters

6 Arrange half the bread in the oven-proof dish, butter side down

7 Drain the dried fruit, and sprinkle over the bread.

8 Sprinkle half the sugar over the dried fruit

9 Cover with the rest of the bread, butter side up

10 Pour the eggs and milk over the pudding.

11 Sprinkle the remaining sugar on the top, and cook for 50-60 minutes

Here is a link to a discussion we had on Bread Puddings a couple of years ago.

I've never made it, but I've had bread pudding many times, usually in restaurants - it's always been cut in cubes. With all the liquid in the recipe, it seems like the bread crumbs would get lost. The flavors sound great, though.

A neighbor made Giada's panettone bread pudding with amaretto sauce for a progressive dinner party earlier this year, and it was the best I've ever had.

The last time I made a bread pudding, I used a homemade challah.
