Thanks Steve, this is the closest I have found to the one my mother mage I love bread pudding,but I can not find the original with condensed milk instead of milk. SO, I used condensed milk. I had gotten more compliments on my bread pudding. Served warm without the sauce.

This is the best recipe for Bread pudding. This is the same one my Mother use to make and I have been searching for this recipe forever. Thank you Steve.

This is a family favorite! I have cooked it many times and it is always wonderful! Thank you for sharing!

I make this for many events...always use condensed milk in the sauce. People rave about it! Steve, I always tell them it's a secret recipe and then direct them to you. Awesome!!

I believe this recipe would easily adapt to a slow cooker. From recipes similar, cook on low 3-4 hours until knife inserted comes out clean.....then when ready to serve pour the sauce over....

I used the recipe for the sauce only but substituted eggnog for the evaporated milk. It was awesome!! Yummmmmm.

My husband loves to cook this, he uses one loaf of cinnamon raisin bread to a 9x13 pan and it is wonderful!!!!!

Ok, sorry all that I didn't include a pan size. I use a 2 quart Correlle dish with approximately 3 inch sides. This way it puffs up in the center and then collapses after baking. Making a crunchy top. It makes around 6-8 servings and I have used raisins, dried cranberries, dried cherries, peaches. All are very good. I put 4 broken pieces of bread in the the fruit then add the remaining 3 pieces of bread on top. After adding the sauce, press all pieces down with fork and let sit for a few minutes.

This is a do over recipe. I added a touch of almond flavoring. Also, I used a 9x13 pan, which I think made it too thin. Next time, I will try a deeper dish.

The author left out specifics as to what size pan. This means that it was probably unimportant. Use any reasonable size pan you have handy. Usually this doesn't matter too much, in my experience. I always use just what I have, and never measure with a ruler. As far as servings go, I just feed whoever is hungry, and give the rest to my dog or put in the refrigerator or freezer. Since this is a dessert, if you don't have enough servings, you can always serve it with some vanilla ice cream, peaches or some other fruit. Canned peaches go on top of nearly any kind of dessert.

this does not say how many servings this makes nor a dish size. how come?
