What Makes My Bread Pudding so Good? - Creamy Vanilla Cream Sauce

I'm 70 years old and lost my mother's recipe for her bread pudding. I have been looking for ages for a recipe like hers but never found one. Although I have tried many other recipes which are really good, this one is exactly like my mom's. Now I remember that if she didn't have evaporated milk at home, she would just use regular full cream milk and it came out perfect. With 8 children, nothing went to waste and every week all left over bread was made into bread pudding. She didn't make the sauce and it was just as delicious. Thankyou for finally ending my search and finding a recipe like mom's ❤

The last time I spent time with my grammie was at her apartment after she sold the homestead. She was an amazing cook. Hamburger steak, whipped potatoes, green beans and bread budding (with warm butter sauce and cream drizzled over top) for dessert. Country tea along side. OMG. That bread pudding she made on the fly and it baked while she cooked and came out right before we ate. Thank you for recalling that memory for me, Tammy. God bless.

I think I could eat a bowl of vanilla cream sauce by itself with a spoon! Yum!

Yummy and easier than some I have seen. And no raisins 😊 BTW Carmel sauce is excellent on bread pudding imho❤

Tammy I’d eat the whole pan it looks so very yummy!! The sauce really is the crowning glory! Love ya and thanks for the recipe and demo!!❤

My daughter and I worked in an Italian Deli ( early 1990's. )A German Lady, a Romanian grandma, an Irish cook, 3 Italian woman worked magic in the kitchen. Some of the recipes were from the 1930's. We lived in an Italian neighborhood, so,I would ask my mama if she wanted to try these little homemade treasures. One was the bread pudding. Love your grandma's treat. 💜💚💛💙❤

My mama used leftover biscuits and crumbled them up fine and added chocolate to it. Tasted like chocolate cake when it was done. I'm going to try this one.

That's most beautiful bread pudding I've ever witnessed anyone make

Not eating bread pudding is akin to being un-American, lol! Yum. I also love Scalloped Tomatoes, hint hint for people who have never ate scalloped tomatoes. 😃

I’ve got some Artisan White bread, left over from making Cucumbers Tea sandwiches, I am going to make your granny’s bread pudding with it. I used to soak raisins until plump and add to my bread pudding, I’ve even added chopped English Walnuts as well. 🌹♥️

Oh I love pudding bread, never knew anyone who could make it or ever seen it made by anyone only at a restaurant, yum thank you for such a delicious memory ☺️ of a good treat I have always loved , now to make it myself and share it with my sisters who none have f them or my mom have ever made this special pudding bread yum 👍💕☺️🌺 they will love it and want to make it too 😉

Bread pudding was one of my hubby's favorite things to eat...made it for him all the time!

I've got 6 Kaiser rolls I gotta use up so ima make this delicious recipe. That cream sauce has been in my family since the depression. My husbands mom used to make it and serve it over buttered toast.! Yum

Thank you for sharing this recipe. My grandma made it every Christmas, it was just delicious. Thank for the wonderful memories.

My parents owned a restaurant and our cook made this when she had x number of rolls! She froze them n then would make this with a simple glaze but this looks so much better with cream sauce! Lol can’t wait to try!

Another well-timed recipe! I tried to make bread pudding using a recipe my cousin gave me....ended up having to toss it! This is less complicated and looks delicious! Can't wait to fix it!

Oh my Gosh, I want to make that! Thank you I didn't know what a bread pudding was...and now I know.😊😋

I'm am a huge bread pudding fan and have order it in many places around the country but this is the best I've ever eaten. I have never been disappointed with your recipes.

This recipe has become a Staple in My house. I absolutely LOVE IT ❤

That sauce looks really tasty.
