I love bread pudding - and I love pumpkin. I knew combining the two would just be so yummy! I prepared it with our Thanksgiving dinner last year. And I think I will be making it again this time around!

Blue Ribbon Recipe

We love a good bread pudding, and this one is creamy and not too sweet. It's full of wonderful pumpkin and fall flavors. Serve with a dollop of whipped cream for a delicious holiday dessert.
