I was looking for a sauce for bread pudding that doesn't include butter. So many of the sauces call for butter and I didn't want a greasy, oily sauce. This one fit the bill. It had the perfect amount of sweetness and the rum was delicious in it. Next time I will try this bread pudding recipe instead of just the sauce.

Just delicious !! Brilliantly easy to do - I even left a child to get it out of the oven ! I did not make the sauce as I had added a leftover bowl of diced apple to the mix and my kids - although big - are not fans of rum flavouring. I also added loads of sultanas and cinnamon - heavy handed as usual !!

Top notch bread pudding. I skipped the raisins and replaced the ask for amount of sugar with 1/3 the amount of Splenda Brown Sugar in the pudding and it was sweet enough. I made 4 servings and for the sauce I used 2 Tbsp of Splenda Brown Sugar (which was quite enough) in place of the ask for 1 cup! The rum was Malibu and it was YUMM. Also I used fat free evap milk for the cream. My lightened version is a true treat so I'm sure that the full fat recipe would be heavenly. I would still cut way back on the sugar if I had no restrictions however.
