EXPERT TIPS

Expert Tips

Bread pudding made with a bread that's too soft can be very soft and almost mushy. Gently squeeze bread loaves and choose the one that has some resistance and doesn't feel like a marshmallow!

You can serve the bread pudding with prepared strawberry topping instead of making the Strawberry Sauce.

I made this recipe to try and salvage some almost old bread, strawberries, and bananas. My family ate it and loved it, my co-workers ate it and loved it. I think it's a good spin on somewhat of a traditional recipe. it was also extremely easy. I'm a working mom and my husband considers making a bowl of cereal cooking, so anything that makes my life in the kitchen a little easier is well worth my time to rate. Great combinations of flavors and easy to make. Thanks!

I plan to make this without your "hip new update". Artificial any thing is NOT preferable to the natural... And most of MY family is allergic to soy...

I have not made this yet, but I was wondering if real milk and real eggs could be substituted for soy milk and egg stuff, meaning use the real stuff instead of the other. I would like to know if this is at all possible,if so I will make it tonight lol.
