Made it for Christmas dinner. It was very sweet. Had a nice flavor, but was more like a dessert than a side dish with ham. My family didn't really care for it. I probably won't be making it again.

Making the recipe "as is" I gave this dish 4 stars. To make it 5 stars, I made the following changes: 1.) I used about 1/2 loaf of Italian bread. The "crust" pieces are really delish. I took the dish I was going to bake this in & then tore pieces to kinda fill the pan. If you don't have enough bread it can be too "wet". 2.) Use 4 eggs 3.) Add 1 Tbls vanilla 4.) Only use 3/4 cup sugar, it will be plenty sweet. 5.) Use 20 oz. can CRUSHED Pineapple, untrained.

I used Italian bread for this recipe and it was fantastic!! My mom said it was even better than what my Great-grandmother made and that was pretty great!! I made it for Thanksgiving and I am making it for Christmas dinner too!! My husband loved it!! Toasting the bread makes a big difference, it keeps the casserole from being soggy!! Soooo Good!

My husband and I did not like this at all, everything about it was totally unappealing from the way it looked, smelled, tasted and even the texture. Obviously the other reviewers enjoyed it so I guess there are some people out there who like this sort of thing. Not us.

I have to say, this was awesome. Next time I will try splenda instead of all the sugar. It was very sweet...If your diabetic do not eat! I will be making this again I'm sure. Family loved it. I wanted to take some for work but it never made it out of the house. Thanks!

thanks for reviewing my recipe; great ideas! i never really thought about adding anything to it, i love it so much the way it is. i think that if you make it with whipping cream it will add too much more fat to keep the butter content at one cup, too. the one thing i do to this recipe that VASTLY improves on it is make homemade wheat bread with stone ground wheat flour and use that for the toast. thanks for the pic too!

Pretty good although I have nothing to compare it to, I've never had bread pudding before. I think if I make this again I might play with it. I might add some cinnamon and some Malibu rum for a tropical taste. I think it can be improved on, that is why it only got four stars.
