Cranberry Bread Pudding #CranberryWeek

Cranberry Bread Pudding serves smooth custard and tangy sweet cranberries in a hearty bread pudding. One taste and it will soon become a Holiday favorite.
Cranberry Bread Pudding
I always wondered where to classify bread pudding? Is it a form of bread? Can you call it, dessert? How about under breakfast? Maybe as a snack?
No matter how you label Cranberry Bread Pudding, you’re in for a treat.
I like mine warm, fresh from the oven. The finished bread pudding (see that, I was careful not to categorize it 😉 ) can be easily reheated or eaten cold. After all, it is custard based!

I’m not the only one thinking about cranberries. This week #FestiveFoodies are celebrating #CranberryWeek by sharing delicious recipes and meal ideas with you. Follow the #CranberryWeek hashtag November 5th -9th on social media for more recipes and tips.

Cranberry Bread Pudding

Cranberry Bread Pudding

I start with fresh or frozen whole cranberries. What I’m going for is a cranberry sauce consistency. To the berries I add sugar and water. That’s it. Boil it and smash it as the berries cook and sauce thickens. Easy right?
Break or cut 6 cups of sourdough or other airy bread.
Mix half the bread with the cranberry sauce. Add it to a greased baking dish. Stir in the rest of the bread to coat. This keeps the bread pudding from getting too soggy.
What’s even easier is the custard. I whisk together the eggs, brown sugar and milk then pour it over the bread. No precooking needed.
Bake and enjoy!
