Old Fashioned Maple Bread Pudding

This recipe is a wonderful way to transform dry leftover bread it into something delicious.

Old Fashioned Maple Bread Pudding at Forgotten Way Farms! LOVE this website and their beautiful photos and recipes.Leftovers made new…

I had some leftover cinnamon rolls, in the pantry that were left uncovered and they’d dried out. Leftovers are actually a rare thing in this house, so I grabbed at this opportunity to make this simple and satisfying dessert. Oh, was it good! We ate it for breakfast, which I highly recommend trying sometime.

Old Fashioned Bread Pudding, sweetened with Maple Syrup! Love this recipe.

 Imagine, a mug of some delicious hot drink and a lovely chunk of this, a perfect breakfast! Also, I love sweetening things with maple syrup! It adds such a complex, deep yet sweet taste that I’ve fallen in love with. Sometimes, a really dark maple syrup almost has coffee overtones to my taste buds. I just love it!

Love this! What a great, and delicious way to reuse old, dry bread

Also, don’t you just love those yellow roses? I love flowers, period. And nothing brightens a kitchen quite like a cheerful, bright bouquet of flowers. Wondering how to keep cut flowers fresh longer? Click here and read my tips for keeping cut flowers fresh longer.

Ohhh, such pretty photos! Love this blog and their recipes

 I’ve heard people say that they’ve tried bread pudding before and it was soggy and gross, but trust me this recipe isn’t. Check out my tips below on how to get custardy perfection.

Ugh, that is so pretty looking. I'm hungry now, must try this recipe soon!

Old Fashioned Bread Pudding Tips:

  • Make sure your bread is dry, leave it out on the counter for a day, and it will be perfect.
  • Test it with a knife and if it still seems too runny or soft, bake it a little longer.
  • Tear or rip the bread. They will stick out and become crunchy and delicious as it bakes.

    I’ve boiled ground beef in bulk before, but I’d never seen how to do it in the crockpot. Brilliant! Pre-cooked ground beef is such a huge time saver. Thanks for sharing this.
