Your grandmother really loves you - delicious! Had to make it twice, since I nearly finished the first one all by myself! This is THE recipe for bread pudding, look no further - a keeper for sure!

This was a fantastic bread pudding recipe. I liked how it wasn't too sweet nor too custardy and the sauce was amazing! I used a whole, 4-day old, loaf of French bread (I forgot to serve during the 4th of July party), so I doubled the recipe, baked it on a 13x9x2 baking glass pan, and used 1 1/3 cup sugar. I also liked the fact that the recipe doesn't call for any butter. I will definitely make this recipe again and again. Thank you for the recipe!

I just made the custard sauce for a different bread pudding recipe. I followed the advice of one other reviewer and added the orange zest of one orange and it turned out fabulous, creamy and delicious!

I made this as written except I used banana bread in one and pumpkin bread in another. It was delicious..People who like a more custardy bread pudding won't like this. I don't like eggy tasting things so this was perfect. Finally a bread pudding that comes out the way I like it. Thanks for sharing.

This recipe is fabulous!!! I have been looking for a great bread pudding recipe that isn't too much custard and this is perfect!!! I highly recommend it to anyone who loves a good bread pudding. The pumpkin pie spice gives it a nice flavor, good anytime of the year.

In one word...YUM!!!

I liked this, as did many of my guests, but I found it to be drier than my Grandmother's bread pudding was (even with the custard sauce). I'm trying to get my hands on my Grandma's old recipe, and if so, will share that.

Wow! This was an AMAZING bread pudding. I followed the recipe very closely with two minor changes. 1. I didn't use raisins and 2. I used allspice in place of pumpkin pie spice. I served this at a party and it got rave reviews. The custard sauce is a must. I could eat a bowl of that stuff!

I made this recipe for my new father-in-law for Thanksgiving. He said that it was just like his mother use to make. He is in his 70's so I took this as a great compliment. I made the recipe exact. I did not change anything. I have been asked to make it again for Christmas....

I needed a recipe for Bread Pudding and as always, turned to AllRecipes.com. This looked to be the recipe I was searching for and I have to tell you it is THE BEST recipe I have ever used. To my amazement the sauce recipe was also posted and have never found a sauce as wonderful as this one. Anyone would make a mistake if they used any other recipe for bread pudding or sauce. Thank you AllRecipes.

I loved this recipe. I tweaked it a bit to suit my family's taste. During my first make, I reduced the sugar to 50g (recipe for 4). However, together with the custard sauce, it is still way way too sweet. Hence the second time around, I cut the suger by 2/3 the original recipe. I also layered the soaked bread, followed by the scattering of raisins, followed by the final layer of soaked bread and raisins once again. I also lightly dusted some cinammon powder and brown sugar on top of the mixture before it baked. Turned out yummy and looked great too. You can up or reduce the cinammon as you please, depending on how much you like cinammon. BTW the custard sauce is AMAZING!!!

I made this with three cinnamon buns I had left over, so I was able to omit the raisins since they were already in the buns. Delicious! Also cut the sugar to 3/4 but probably could have cut it more since the buns were sweet already. Sauce was amazing! A hit.

I confess that I only made the custard sauce but I loved it so much that I joined to leave this comment. It was the best sauce EVER!!! Now I will definately want to try the bread pudding too!! And I might double the recipe too...LOL

This was very, very good. My first time making homemade and I was very pleased. I only used 3/4 cup sugar instead of a full cup based on other's reviews. It was perfect. And the sauce was soooo good. Definitely will make this again and again. Thanks for a great recipe.

Oh my gosh! This was fantastic. We had company tonight and everyone loved it and had seconds! This is a keeper, thanks so much for sharing! My husband, who loves bread pudding, said he would be fine without the custard sauce, which was very rich. I will reduce the sugar next time.

This was REALLY good. I hadn't had bread pudding since my grandmother was alive. The pudding was a little sweet (not sure if you can cut the sugar back any) but the vanilla sauce helped balance the sweetness. Will definitely add to the recipe box. My 4 year old LOVED it. Thanks so much.

This bread pudding is wonderful! It was super easy, very rich and delicious! I would definately make this one again. :)

The bread pudding was a little too sweet for my taste but had a terrific consistancy. The sauce was to die for!! It was rich and creamy. A way better option than the usual hard sauce topping.
