Updated on Jul 3, 2012

My mother use to make bread pudding from left over biscuits from breakfast. With such a large family nothing was ever thrown away. So I made this recipe from left over Hot Dog and Hamburger buns, & some whole wheat buns, to add a little extra fiber to the diet, I also added chopped apples with the skin on to add additional fiber. I have also made this recipe with splenda regular or brown sugar blend. The chocolate chips are optional & so is the sauce, it is good either way. I cooked it in my 12 inch Cast Iron Skillet so I could serve wedges instead of squares. It is a simple yet great recipe.

I gave you my original recipe, but this time I used stale hot dog and hamburger buns with whole wheat rolls. I always learned to be creative and recreate when it came to food, because we could not afford to throw any away, with 13 people in our family.
