Bread pudding rates very high on the comfort food list. Oh how good it is, to come home to the aroma of baking bread with butter and cinnamon, flowing from the kitchen. Many may think this is too time consuming to attempt, but really it is a easy country dish. Older ones might have memories of the warm home cooked delight. Younger ones will just want more. To save calories, the sauce can be left off. You may choose to top it off with a scoop of ice cream. The choice is yours. But my vote is go with the sauce.
