I love bread pudding and when I found this recipe, I knew it was the one! Quick and easy to make. Can be eaten plain or with vanilla or bourbon sauce spooned over it.

Bread pudding with raisins. Instead of using a square baking dish, I opted for an oval casserole dish.

How To Make my favorite bread pudding

Step 1

Heat oven to 350°F.

Step 2

Break bread into small pieces in an 8" square baking dish. Drizzle melted butter over the bread. If desired, sprinkle with raisins.
Step 3

In a medium mixing bowl, combine eggs, milk or cream, sugar, cinnamon (if using), and vanilla. Beat until well blended. Pour over bread and, using a spoon, lightly push down until bread is covered and soaking up the egg mixture.
Step 4

Place pan of mixture into a larger pan. Fill larger pan with up to 1" of water.
Step 5

Bake 45 minutes to 1 hour or until the top springs back when lightly tapped. Serve warm or cold, with or without sauce.
