Ingredient Notes

labeled ingredients for red raspberry bread pudding
  • Red Raspberry Preserves – If I was serving this to guests, I’d probably use seedless raspberry preserves.
  • Sweetened Condensed Milk – For sweetness, creaminess, and moisture.
  • Croissants – Leftover croissants are perfect. When they’re stale, they soak up the custard really well and you want that!

Tip: I use the croissants I get free with my Wildgrain box every month – the bread/bakery/pasta subscription box I keep raving about!
