This was excellent. We made it last night. There was actually enough for 3 servings! I am gluten free (not by choice) but not allergic to gluten just can't tolerate Gluten. I made it with Gluten free white bread it's more tolerable for me . Turned out delicious! We also made homemade caramel sauce & poured over it with whipped cream. This morning there was a serving left I refrigerated it & just re heated. My Grand ate it for breakfast! It's even better the next day! Reminds me of the Bread pudding I used to buy from this Supermarket where I grew up. The woman made it homemade everyday from the leftover bread. Totally yummy and this is so close to that! Highly recommend!
