I made this twice with extra homemade cinnamon cranberry bread that was getting stale. The custard is delicious and the cinnamon bread with craisins instead of raisins gave it a real feel and smell of the holidays. My family loves it! I am definitely going to continue making this one! edited to add: I did not make the sauce topping and it was not needed but I’m sure it’s great.

[@carmelscott1706]

Oh, Paula, I pray that God keeps you safe and well. You are such a source of comfort to me. I love your recipes and I love your personality. Merry Christmas to you, all the way from Ontario, Canada!

[@johnmachacek9658]

Would like to see a cooking segment hosted by Eddie and Theresa!

[@michaelsolomon1616]

Enjoying all the Christmas videos! Thank you. Say, did I miss your Christmas house tour? I love seeing how beautiful it is decorated!

[@izodman]

I remembered this recipe from a few years ago when Paula did in another video. I made it then and everybody still talked about that bread pudding to this day many years later. I saved the recipe and this Christmas, I will make it again only this time I will swap out the bread for low carb and the sugar for a keto friendly one. I imagine it will taste close and I cannot wait give it a go after many years of not making this bread pudding.

[@lanalowery4267]

Good to wake up to Paula this morning.

[@heidid5275]

Mmmmm!! I've made this before and it is absolutely scrumptious. I have to admit, though, I served it with maple syrup!! Still fantastic. The recipe got raves. Merry Christmas, y'all. ❤

[@kimberdawn4424]

What a delicious recipe, Paula! I have to share my latest additions to my baking repertoire, which I have found irreplaceable. I now substitute Pure Vanilla Bean Powder, in place of Vanilla Extract, in a lot of my recipes. In my opinion, the flavor is more intense, and the vanilla profile stands out. I also have found various maple syrups processed in bourbon, whiskey and gin barrels, as a great substitute(has traces of alcohol) for various alcohols in recipes. It actually takes a lot of time(over 2 hours) to burn full alcohol out of food recipes. Thank you for posting your daily recipes. I'm a Southern cook, too. Love ya and enjoy watching from Austin, Texas. Kimber🤗😘🥰

[@vickihandel3620]

Love this recipe! It’s perfect for Christmas through New Year’s! May you and your family/eddy and Theresa have a wonderful blessed Christmas

[@jeffereysholar3891]

Looks yummaliscious. Stale banana bread makes good bread pudding too if you never tried it. But for christmas, I'm making your donut bread pudding. OMG soooo goood!!!

[@margaretbedwell3211]

My MIL used to use stale cinnamon rolls in hers and added raisins as well. But I never had stale cinnamon rolls to use. LOL.

[@margaretbedwell3211]

That does look delicious, Paula. I hope y'all had a wonderful Christmas and Best Wishes for all good things in the new year. Have a Blessed day.

Hi Paula. Just wanted to let you know that I have just returned home from Pigeon Forge for a Christmas Vacation. We visited your store at the Island and it is just fabulous! I loved the reproduction of your kitchen, it is beautiful. I didn't ask if there were demo's going on, if there were, we missed it, but I had my picture made there and I felt very Paula Deenish. Merry Christmas!

[@marshabanks2297]

Paula i need an original bread pudfing recipe with no extras cause im making mine white chocolate by adding only wc chips in it! Its deliciois. P.s. i also use french vanilla creamer instead of milk. Try it !

[@JoanHerzog-xv8lj]

My Mom made almost the same sauce...but she added a smidge of nutmeg to it, too. Bread Pudding is my FAVORITE dessert 12:32😊

Thank you Paula,

As a child I would stay with my aunt in the summer. She would make bread pudding for me. Thank you for this recipe. Since her recipe included raisins I think that I will include rum soaked raisins in mine 😁

[@charlottetyus6810]

That makes it extra delicious!!

[@patiencedetlor1035]

That looks delicious

[@vickismallwood2082]

I love bread pudding. Grandma always made this for us at Christmas time. Merry Christmas Paula and family.

[@barbarajohnson83]

That looks delicious Paula! Merry Christmas to you and your family.🎄❤️

[@earthabullock1582]

I made this bread pudding but most of my folks and friends thought the sauce was too sugary. I make a similar sauce and I would like for you to try it and give me your honest opinion. 1 stick butter 1 cup sugar 1 large egg 2 tsp vanilla extract 1/4 cup brandy In a sauce pan, cook the first 4 ingredients for 5 to 6 minutes on medium heat. Remove from heat and stir in the brandy. Pour over slightly cooled bread pudding. Trust me, you will love it. I hope you will get this post even though this is an older post.

[@hazelclement2151]

Sweet!!!

[@brendabrasher1971]

I have used different flavors of coffee creamer in my bread pudding.

[@ThompsonSmith530]

Hello Dear How are you doing today?

[@morgancalvi6675]

Rocking that baseball cap. I put raisins in mine 😋. The written recipe calls for 2 cups of Italian bread as well as French bread 🤔. I bet orange juice in there. If you are a tee totaler...no extract either...it's got booze in it.

[@kristineblackwell1499]

This is the best way to start my day.

Can I put 9 pieces of super holey kwiktrip bread in air bake oven on 150 degrees for 6 minutes instead?

[@tammiemiller8272]

Looks delicious love the crisp on top thanks for sharing take care love and best dishes Paula and Eddie and Theresa Merry Merry Christmas to you and family 🎄🎁🎄

[@jenniferestes5293]

My mother absolutely loved bread pudding and would make it 3 or 4 times a year. She always added raisins, I can't stand raisins. Anyway, she had a special talent for burning her bread pudding yet it was also underbaked my dad couldn't stand it, but Mom just loved it just the way she made it so she didn't try to change anything. I am now scarred by my mother's bread pudding. I'll see some at a restaurant and it looks so tasty, but I'm too scared to order it because I can't get my mom's out of my head. She ruined it for me. Her rice pudding wasn't that much better. And she would always burn the first batch of tapioca for pudding until she learned how to cook it in the microwave. I LOVED her tapioca pudding. To this day tapioca is in my top 3 puddings. Anyway yours looks really yummy. Almost good enough to get me to try it. 😁

[@margaretbedwell3211]

Please try the bread pudding you will absolutely love it. This one didn't have raisins but you can leave them out of any recipe you make. Same w/nuts. I like both pecans and walnuts so I alternate. I also have put chopped apples in mine.

[@ileac7122]

What else can one use in place of nuts if have nut allergies?

[@vanessalang3966]

So yummy!

[@buttercup6170]

Ms. Paula you are making me hungry !!! Must make this. I may? flavor mine with a little rum. Merry Christmas.....you are a delight Ms. Paula....kind heart💖🔔💖🔔

[@bonniesnith6904]

[@DawnW-x9g]

Merry Christmas Paula to you Michael, Teresa, Eddy and the entire family!

[@GenXLostInTx]

Love bread pudding, one of my favorites. But I can’t make it. I screw it up. My husband made it for me though,with praline sauce and it was so very good.

[@mikeyd946]

YES!!!!

[@jonathansongco4302]

Yummy.

[@navaleah8663]

Impressed that you actually gave us the entire recipe. It's a scientific fact that alcohol does not cook all the way out of food. Alcohol takes a long time for even a fraction of it to cook off, so at only 35-40 minutes cook time, you'll get about 92-94% of the alcohol. It should be against the law to allow kids to eat spiked foods, but why somebody would want to train their children to enjoy alcohol is beyond me.

[@nnickerson7636]

Morning Paula, Happy holidays to you and your family's. To Teresa and Eddie too.

[@brendah4773]

Sinfully fattening, yes ma’am. Yum yum yum! ❤🎄

[@tatertots-n-soup]

So brewed beer doesnt really have any alcohol in it?

[@morgancalvi6675]

Paula...my husband is a diabetic and his sugar was sooo high from eating tons of sugar, he had a heart attack...but you keep eating that 😉.

[@carolinelvsewe]

Yum

[@DizzLexic]

"Your guests may not leave" ...... because they may end up in a sugar coma.... haha

[@carlgolec2884]

I use the Krispy Kreme bread pudding,it rocks.

[@jerrykeenan1848]

Thanks

[@ceciletx27nehemiah19]

I love to use a cinnamon raisin bread and make my custard and mix really well with clean hands. I don't like pouring it on the top cause in my mind it doesn't get absort properly cause I want every bit of it soaked.

[@carolpreisinger2616]

That's way too much sugar you could cut that in half of it would be plenty

[@nothx512]

I prefer bread pudding with sandwich white bread and raisins....topped with whip cream

[@Daisy-or4pm]

I didn’t know baking pans came in 13 X 12. It looks to be 13 X 9. The bread pudding looks delicious! I’m going to give this a try.

[@jules8910]

The old recipe I always had was the same with the exception of raisins.

[@lifewithlisaa337]

I wonder of the sugar ratio is off.. 3 cups of sugar altogether seems like an awful lot of sugar! Then another 2 Cups of sugar on top of that! 5 cups of sugar!! 😲😳🙀😖

[@DBurgg]

TWO CUPS OF SUGAR? Is this a mistake?😮

[@susank.9223]

What, no cinnamon!

[@suzannemowat6167]

Can u have all that sugar if u are a diabetic…… don’t think so unless u turn up the insulin

[@gj9736]

I would cut back on the sugar in this recipe, to much for my taste, otherwise it’s great!

[@jonathanwilson2109]

Paula would you believe I've never tried it

[@knv1979]

Eddie: I don't know if you will see this, but good looking out on cutting that Brandy conversation short. That term used carries a negative connotation to some (if not most) people, & I could see exactly where it was heading as well.🤣😂🤣

[@kimberdawn4424]

I, too, noticed the negative connotation word used with the brandy conversation. Paula and Theresa were both incorrect in stating the alcohol would "cook off" in that short of a time frame. It takes an extended "boiling" time (over 2+ hours) to "cook off" alcohol. People rely on the information Paula and her team present in the videos. I wish they would verify their statements prior to posting the videos.

[@tinyc6334]

I added the brandy thinking it was going to cook off, but NO got my sister and brother-in-law drunk. They didn't give the measurements for the brandy. I am not happy 😒

[@kimberdawn4424]

@tiny c OOPSY! It is so misleading for people to be told the alcohol burns out so quickly. Sorry to hear you had an issue.🥺

[@lujuanahastings3310]

I love Paula but despise those glasses on her!🤪

[@mickie4445]

That’s a lot a sugar for diabetic’s

[@izodman]

I agree but you may consider an alternative sweetener like stevia or something similar.

[@bjwaugh2857]

Again..not bread pudding..bread cake...looks nothing like the bread PUDDING my mom and grandma made..their bread pudding was creamy and custardy and needed no vanilla sauce puoured over it to make it moist

[@cferg9835]

I’m confused. Every bread pudding recipe I’ve seen you let the bread soak in the egg liquid for awhile, even overnight. So why so short a time here?

[@DizzLexic]

She said she let it soak for 10 minutes. ... She had a pretty high liquid to bread ratio, so ?I am guessing that was enough time. In the bcase where you use less liquid, it is better to let it soak a good while.

[@wandasanders9043]

As we AGE, WE BECOME FRAIL, IF YOU DONT EXCERSISE.

[@lesliesmith719]

Don't be fooled by the all the 5 star reviews on Paula's recipes. A lot of them are 5 star but have the comments like "looks good". Clearly they never even made the recipe! Others change the amounts or even ingredients and still gave it 5 stars. Shame on the Deen team for allowing these 5 stars on comments like these.
