  1. Has anyone tried blueberry pie filling as the blueberry component of a blueberry bread pudding? Just drop by spoonful here and there?

  1. This was fabulous- we enjoyed this the day before Christmas. I didn't do the caramel sauce, since I served if for breakfast and wanted to watch my calories. I love to make this the night before and pop it in the oven for breakfast. Very filling and addictive.<br/><br/>Update- we make this at least 2 times a month for breakfast. It is so good with powdered sugar on top and/or maple syrup. My hubby and kids just love this breakfast. I like to use whole wheat French bread to make it even more filling. So great you make it the night before. What a fabulous great dish!
     
  2. Just thought you might like to know.. Your instructions say to use an 8x8 pan but the pan showing in the finished product is a 9x13...Great recipe though.
     
  3. This was good but not as custardy as I would have liked. Also, I thought the lemon zest was a bit much. Next time I won't use any zest and I might make a little extra custard.
     
  4. Made this for brunch last Sunday and was a huge hit. From the relatives with simpler tastes (the meat and potatoes crowd) to more complex (the foodies) - everyone agreed that they loved it!
     
  5. Great for breakfast or dessert and very easy to make. Didn't use the caramel sauce only brown sugar and it tasted wonderful. I really like bread puddings as a way to use up stale bread and this one is a winner. Thank you for posting Rita.

Tweaks

  1. Very yummy. I used 4 slices of blueberry crumble bread, and 4 slices of cinnamon bread. I also used all cream instead of 1/2 milk (had cream I had to use up) and orange zest for the lemon, double the vanilla, and just mixed everything together instead of layering it. I only baked for about 38 minutes and it came out perfect! Will be making this again.
