This sounds good. I have never had pudding bread before, sounds like a great way to get rid of old bread at the end of the week. Does this end up more like a dessert or breakfast food? Do you eat it hot or cold?

Thank you!

 

[BryanMaloney]

Yes and yes. It is a dessert and a breakfast food. It is eaten hot or cold.

Thanks! Can't wait to try it.

We always had our's as dessert, made with raisins (yuck!), and drizzled with a rum or a caramel sauce.
I have never seen it with a streusel on top, I bet that is good!

You've probably not seen it with streusel because this is my own, original recipe.

That is why I have never had bread pudding before - I hate raisins!

OMG! I hate raisins too ... therefore we make chocolate bread pudding. We put cocoa in with the milk and eggs and then layer chocolate chips throughout the bread. Served with a big dollop of vanilla ice cream while it's hot and you have a dreamy dessert.

I love to add apples and cinnamon to mine!

This weekend I made this, it was so easy and really good! I was able to get rid of some hamburg rolls and bread that probably would have ended up in the trash.

Is the butter quantity correct? I had to add more butter to get the crumbly struesel.

This is definitely a recipe that one can easily add other ingedients to, I could definitely picture apples.
