White Chocolate Cranberry Bread Pudding + Eagle Brand Prize Pack Giveaway!

Are you a bread pudding fan? I personally think its a little odd. “Hey guys…lets take some bread, soak it in a weird sugary egg mixture and bake it!” It’s just weird, right? That’s why there are hardly any bread pudding recipes on my site. My Egg Nog Breakfast Bread Pudding was the only bread pudding I really ever liked. This begs the question: “why are you posting another bread pudding recipe if you aren’t a fan?”

Good question.

I don’t really know. I saw it on a website and it called my name. Whatareyagonnadoaboutit? Recipes do this time to time. Specifically Pinterest recipes. Specifically when I’m pregnant. Anyways, turns out this bread pudding is really good. But, with a whole can of sweetened condensed milk mixed in…I expect no less. I am a big time fan of sweetened condensed milk. So creamy and dreamy. If it wasn’t so sweet and rich tasting, I’d eat it with a spoon. And, the nice thing about bread puddings is you can make them a few hours in advance. –>perfect if you’re going to be busy or will be having company coming for the holidays. And, it’s really festive with the chocolate and craisins! Mmm….here’s how you make it:

Start by cutting up a bunch of french bread and measuring out some white chocolate chips and craisins. My daughter used to hate craisins, but when she tried them this time around, she fell in love. She was eating them with all the white chocolate…so that could of definitely made them taste a little better! LOL!

Now, we’re going to make the liquidy pudding part. Crack open a can of sweetened condensed milk.

Pour the whole thing into a bowl with 3 eggs and stir.

To that, pour in some hot water and melted butter.

And you’ll also want to stir in some cinnamon and vanilla.

Once that custard is all mixed well, pour it over the bread.

Make sure to stir everything up to coat it all well.

And divide between a bunch of buttered ramekins. Bake these off until a toothpick comes out clean after being inserted. Super simple to make and tastes divine!

Not only is this bread pudding delicious, but it would make a great addition to any holiday breakfast buffet! Make these puddings to go along side my Cinnamon Roll Christmas Tree, Chicken Sausage and Asparagus Quiche and this Easy Blackberry Cheese Danish.
