Bread Pudding Recipe with Raisins
This is an easy and simple bread pudding recipe. Once you know the basics, you can get fancy and make apple or pumpkin bread pudding, or test out additional fall flavors like nutmeg or allspice.
Perfect to eat warm out of the oven, you can use left over bread to spoon up this cinnamon, raisin and sugary fall favorite. Although not diet friendly, its worth every last bite to break the fast!
As it is, its an easy recipe and every bite is good down home from scratch cooking.

Bread Pudding Tips:
- This is quick to whip up, about 10 minutes but I let mine set for 30 minutes before baking so that the bread can soak up the egg and milk.
