Holiday Bread Pudding Recipe

This year, I have a delicious Pear Bread Pudding with Caramel Sauce recipe on my menu, for both a brunch at our house, and a potluck dessert party that we’ll be attending.

Ingredients for pear bread pudding

Very simple ingredients. Very elegant! All you need are these simple ingredients:

• Raisin English Muffins
• Pears
• Butter + milk
• Cinnamon + sugar
• Eggs
• Caramel Sauce, we buy at Trader Joe’s or Harry & David
• Powdered sugar

Royal Rivieras are our favorite, and are at their finest right now, with flavors of pear, cinnamon, and caramel melded together into warm bites of delicious goodness.

Drizzle with caramel sauce

Not only does the house smell delightful when it’s baking (we are pear lovers!), but when you pull this recipe from the oven, you serve it hot with a drizzle of hot caramel sauce over the top.

Don’t forget to dust with powdered sugar!

I promise, your family and guests will go crazy!

Crazy for another helping, that is.

So I like to play it safe and bake up 2 pans!

One for your family and one to give away?

This recipe is moist and elegant, not too sweet, and deliciously perfect.

Goodness that melts in your mouth.

Enjoy!
