This was so good! I’ve made a cranberry pumpkin bread before so I knew the combination of the two was good and I love bread pudding. This recipe was easy to make, I made it put it in the oven and by the time I was finished with dinner it was ready to eat. Will make again.

Excellent and so easy to make! I used day-old old challah bread. I halved the recipe and cooked it in a 10-ince cake pan. It turned out perfect. I will make this again and again.

This is fantastic!!!! I used croissants and the pudding was light and airy. The flavor was indescribably delicious!!!

just found this recipe here & it sounds good, I really appreciate the info. from the reviews-i’ve never made bread pudding-but something w/pumpkin sounded delicious, I think some type of a caramel sauce to pour over it would be very appealing to–got that idea from Bobby Flay’s thanksgiving show last year-one of his guests had brought a dish like that to share-sounded heavenly to me!!

Thank You again reviewers & fellow foodies!!!

I also had to adapt this recipe. The 1/4 cup of vanilla is way to much I used 2 teaspoons. I cooked mine also in a water bath. I was worried that there would be to much liquid to fit into the 9 x 13 pan, but if you let it soak in you can fit everything in just fine. I didn’t care for the cranberries since they are unsweetened they are to tart for my taste, they seemed out of place. Besides that a great recipe especially for the Holiday’s. Oh I also used brown suger instead of white suger and used croissants. This is a rich recipe so it serves a lot of people.

Made this twice. First time w/white sugar the second time w/brown…MUCH better with the brown. Gives you that warm, cozy feeling. Yum.

My entire family loves this recipe and they want me to make it every time that I come home from college.

This tastes great, IF you overcome 3 mistakes in printing…1) use only 1-2 T vanilla, not 1/4C. 2) use EITHER pumpkin pie filling/omit spices; OR canned pumpkin with spices. 3) bread pudding ALWAYS needs to be baked in a bath of boiling water so it doesn’t dry out (fill outer bowl to 1/2 depth of your pan). Additionally, the volume of filling fills two 9×13 pans.
