For this recipe, Carina made a couple of bread puddings, one with the addition of raisins in the mixture and one with walnuts on the topping.

Carina says she often switches the recipe and adds other dried fruits or nuts, depending on what she has at hand. So long as you stick to the basic recipe for the eggs, milk and bread, you can pretty much add other goodies to your liking.

This is a very easy bread pudding recipe, and ideal for using up any leftover bread. The pudding is made up of bread, an egg custard, and a variety of dried fruit and nuts. When these are all baked together, you end up with a wonderfully soft and sweet dessert.

The addition of brown sugar and maple syrup gives this dessert a lovely taste and served along with some homemade custard or vanilla pudding, you have pure comfort food at its best!

This will also freeze very well, after cooling, and is handy if you need to make ahead, or perhaps cut into portions if you have a small family. Simply remove from the freezer and reheat either in the oven or microwave, whichever is easier for you.

Serve with a nice blob of ice cream, custard, whipped ream or simply enjoy on it's own!
