Bread Pudding Recipe easy and perfect for the holidays.

So the mountain storm has not let up. I am lucky that we are only at 900 feet because if we were higher we would be getting loads of snow. Power was out for awhile, lots of trees down and lots and lots of rain. The little one is at home and wants to bake something. So I thought it was a good day to make my bread pudding it is a easy recipe and great for little hands to help with. I am lucky that my little one is a great helper and enjoys all the domestic things we do I'm sure one day it will change and baking with mom will be the farthest thing from her mind. So I will enjoy what we have now. Hope you enjoy our bread pudding.

Things you need

2 cups of Milk or 2 cups of Half&Half if you like a heavier pudding

1 cup of Brown Sugar

3 eggs

2 teaspoons of cinnamon

1/4 teaspoon of nutmeg

2 teaspoons of vanilla

3 cups of bread(thick french bread is best but anything you have on hand will work)

1/2 cup of raisins, optional

Pre-heat oven at 350 degrees

This is the fun part for kids, have them pull apart bread into 1 inch pieces and measure out 3 cups, put into a non-stick square baking pan. Fold in raisins if you are using them.

Heat mild on medium till a film forms add in butter, stir till butter blends remove from heat and set aside.

Combine sugar, cinnamon, nutmeg and egg. Mix on slow till combined. Add in milk and butter mixture slowly so you don't cook your eggs.

Pour mixture slowly over your bread making sure that your bread is all moist. Bake for 40-50 minutes on 350.

I like to top with light coat of butter and powdered sugar.

Eat and Enjoy!
