Ingredients for Pumpkin Bread Pudding

Have you ever made homemade bread pudding? It’s so simple and only requires a handful of easy to find, delicious ingredients. Here’s what you are going to need:

  • Rhodes Bake and Serve Soft White Rolls: You’ll need 1 package of rolls to make this recipe. Bake them according to the package directions to get the softest, fluffiest rolls. Once cooled, dice into 1-inch chunks.
  • Pumpkin puree: Grab one 15 ounce can of pumpkin puree. Make sure it’s not pumpkin pie mix.
  • Milk: I like to use whole milk for this recipe for the richness it adds.
  • Eggs
  • Brown sugar
  • Pumpkin pie spice: You can buy a jar at the store or make your own pumpkin pie spice using spices you may already have in your kitchen.

Bake and Prepare the Rhodes Rolls

The rolls are easy to prepare for your bread pudding. Follow the directions on the package and your rolls will be ready in less than 15 minutes. Using Rhodes rolls makes this recipe so quick, fresh and simple.

Once baked, allow to cool then dice into 1-inch cubes. Set aside and prepare the pumpkin custard.

Mix the Pumpkin Custard

The pumpkin custard is super simple to prepare as well. Grab a large bowl that will be big enough to fit the bread as well.

Add the milk, eggs, pumpkin, brown sugar and pumpkin pie spice then whisk until smooth. Add bread chunks and stir until well coated.

Assemble and Bake Pumpkin Bread Pudding

Dump the pumpkin bread pudding into a greased 8×8 pan. At this point you can over and refrigerate it overnight or you can let it sit at room temperature for an hour to soak up all the goodness.

Then it’s time to bake and enjoy.

Frequently Asked Questions

How do I serve bread pudding? There are lots of options. I think it’s best served warm but you can also enjoy it cold if you prefer. Top with a dollop of whipped cream, a drizzle of maple syrup or a scoop of vanilla ice cream.

How do I store the leftovers? Cover the pan with plastic wrap and keep refrigerated. It will be good for up to five days.

Where can I find Rhodes warm and serve rolls? I love that the Rhodes website has a feature that allows you to enter your zip code and search for where you can purchase their products locally. It will allow you to select which product your looking for specifically which is really nice.
