I don’t know what you do when you have too much bread or  stale bread in your kitchen but I would always come with a bread pudding version: sweet or savory depending on what else is there in the fridge or cupboards.

Bread pudding is a bread-based dessert popular in many countries’ cuisines . As you might know the main ingredients are stale bread and milk or cream, eggs and some  form of fat: butter or suet. If you choose a sweet bread pudding version you also need sugar, dried fruits, nuts, cinnamon, nutmeg, vanilla, bourbon or rum extract.  If you choose a savory variation you can also add cheese, mushroom, spinach, olives depending on your inspiration.

I  think no matter what kind you choose they both are a great choice for brunch.

Savory puddings can also be used as meal.

Sweet bread pudding:

dried prunes, cinnamon and dried prunes bread pudding 

apples and cinnamon bread pudding 

Savory bread puddings:

cheddar, feta and green olives bread pudding 

Spinach and cheese bread pudding: 

Spinach and goat cheese whole wheat bread pudding

I hope that whatever your choice will be you enjoy  the bread pudding 🙂
