I’m thinking it’s time for some cozy comfy food …
Bread Pudding!
What? Bread? Pudding? Why yes, indeed and all at once too!
It’s really one of those quaint little vintage recipes that you’d find in your grandmother’s cookbook. But let me tell ya, with a few extras here and there, it surely is delightfully yummy.
It’s sometimes referred to as a Bread and Butter Pudding and with good reason, there’s butter in it. So yup, that’s that. But listen, it’s pretty darn good, so keep the butter! What I want you to understand is that there is no other dessert that would define cozy comfort food in such a simplistic way yet taste as glorious as this Bread Pudding. Don’t believe me? Then please, try it and you’ll understand.
So you know those mornings when you are so hungry that you make more biscuits than you and your kids can devour? Well that’s pretty much how I ended up using biscuits for this recipe and was pleasantly surprised. Now I just make the biscuits and set aside a few for this recipe to make for the next day. (Wow, I’m actually meal planning ahead these days … sort of).
Now get baking and cozy up to a generous serving of Bread Pudding this week and enjoy.
Cold nights deserve Bread Pudding!
