Bread Pudding
(Image is coming soon! HAHAH! But not REALLY soon!)
This luxurious Bread Pudding elevates humble French bread into a spectacular dessert with bourbon, vanilla, and warm spices. Cubes of toasted bread soak up a rich custard enhanced with both white and brown sugars, then bake to golden perfection with apples and raisins throughout. Served warm with melting vanilla ice cream, this bread pudding strikes the perfect balance between homey comfort and sophisticated indulgence.
