Blueberry Bread Pudding is dreamy comfort food that’s so attractive and surprisingly simple to make with only 10 minutes of prep. Serve this bread pudding recipe warm out of the oven for a breakfast, brunch or dessert the whole family will love.
This bread pudding is a family favorite for summer occasions, and it’s just as good in winter warm out of the oven! So attractive with a delicious flavor combination that’s not too sweet. We used leftover croissants, and any plain bread will work great.
