Make This Now: Mr. B’s Bistro Creole Bread Pudding with Irish Whiskey Sauce
Equal parts traditional and modern, this spin on classic bread pudding from Mr. B’s Bistro will make you fall in love with Southern sweets all over again! For this recipe, stale bread, which more easily holds its shape while soaking up the custard mixture, is ideal. If your bread is fresh, place it in a 350-degree oven for 10 to 15 minutes to crisp up before assembling. Get the recipe HERE.
