New Orleans bread pudding is a rich and sweet way to use leftover bread. It comes together quickly, doesn’t require any special pastry skills and is great for those just learning to bake. Bread pudding is very common in Louisiana cuisine and has long been seen as an inexpensive dessert that allows you to have something sweet while being frugal.<\/p>\n

Bread pudding recipes have been around in the U.S. since colonial times, with the first known written recipe appearing in the 1700s and the first Louisiana version appearing in the 1800s. While you could use any day-old bread, French bread was the most commonly available in Louisiana when the recipe took hold, so it remains the typical type of bread used in New Orleans-style recipes. If you need a dessert that doesn’t require expensive ingredients, or if you’re determined not to let that old bread go to waste, make this recipe tonight.<\/p>\n
