This blackberry bread pudding was created for #SummerDessertWeek! I was sent samples by some of the sponsor companies but as always opinions are 100% mine.
I’m crazy about bread pudding! I love how the outside has a bit of crust but the inside is soft, warm and still sort of ooey, gooey pudding-ish. I especially love when there’s a topping to pour over it and make it even more decadent.
Exhibit A: my recipe for blackberry bread pudding. It’s soooo good!

I have blackberries in the freezer and thought I’d make a pie or cobbler, but I’ve changed my mind! Bread Pudding with blackberries , a scoop of blackberry ice cream and maybe a little blackberry sauce…..There goes my diet!
Donna says
The recipe calls for heating the oven to 350 and baking at 325. Is it a typo or do you adjust the temperature when baking?
Liz says
Thank you for catching that! It’s just 325 degrees. I’ve corrected it. Thanks!
Shelley says
THINKING of trying it with cherry pie filling.. and as for the sugar I generally use half and half , white and brown sugar
Cindy says
Not nearly sweet enough for us! Next time, I’ll cook the blackberries in sugar and a little water prior to putting them in the bread pan. Made vanilla sauce to add prior to serving! YUM!
Liz says
I served mine with homemade blackberry sauce over the top which added just the right amount of sweetness. I may edit the recipe to include the blackberry sauce ingredients and how-to as well. Thank you!
