Homemade bread pudding
Description
The dish is prepared without unnecessary complications. Traditionally, bread pudding is served with custard cream, but you can also serve it with ice cream, cream cheese, or condensed milk (either cooked or raw). Enjoy it warm or cold. Add nuts, dried fruits, or candied fruits. Pudding can be made from stale or fresh bread, so you'll have a great way to use up bread. The finished dessert is ready to be served.
