Bread pudding is one of my favorite things to eat. Well, it was one of my favorite things too easy and then I started eating a low-carb diet. I have yet to find a substitution for bread pudding. LOL! Anyway, my grandma used to make bread pudding quite a bit when I was little. She would serve it for breakfast and it was yummy. Grandma;s bread pudding never contained any fruit, just bread, and spices.
This recipe contains apples and a warm butter sauce. It makes my mouth water. I made it for my family the other day and yes, I did sample a little nibble. I had to! It was for testing purposes 🙂
