I'm inspired to make carrot cake bread pudding for Easter! Cream cheese layered between brioche, shredded carrot cooked in butter and spices, toasted pecans, rum soaked raisins, and a vanilla rum sauce to finish

Are y’all stalking me??? After more than 20 years I made a bread pudding this last weekend. It was crazy delicious! I made it with croissants, pineapple rum, and fresh pineapple. I used good ole Justin Wilson’s recipe which is a classic. I won’t wait another 20 years to make it again. 🥰

I make mine like he does except I soak my raisins in Captain Morgan Spiced Rum and no brandy ( most people do not like the taste of brandy) and I use heavy cream instead of milk, My grandma taught me 54 years ago to make it. We had to go to the milk house and skim off the cream LOL.

My favorite baker!!! Seems like ages since you've posted, I missed you! But you brought us ooey, gooey, chocolatey goodness, so I forgive you! 😉😄 I never knew bread pudding was so versatile. I love how you inspire so much variety while teaching the basics. My youngest daughter has just discovered that she loves to cook. I can't wait for her to start baking because I can get her all of your books when she gets her own place (and I don't want her stealing my copies! 😂). Happy baking and God bless! ❤

Erin has been absent a long time, so welcome back! Love bread pudding, but I've never made a savory one so appreciate the good ideas there. I do appreciate the beauty of Le Creuset, but I can't afford it, so I'll have to make do with my aluminum 13 x 9, I guess. Still wish I knew what the sickle shaped tat on Erin's right arm means...?

OH! Aren't eggs, milk and nuts nutritious? Hmm! .. And chocolate aids in releasing a pent up pituitary gland and a woman's hormones!.. so this recipe isn't that unhealthy! A rare treat IS a healthy thing for one's self respect and physical senses! For what it's worth, I'd add some fresh sliced strawberries and Coolwhip in top of the mound of pudding! That would add a tad of refreshing flavor and "health" to the dessert. (You could even add a tad of rum sauce over the pudding, as that would make it a luxurious dessert for company during the holidays!
