We are starting off I LOVE PUMPKIN week with a bang! A super easy bread pudding that is delicious as dessert, but could make a mighty fine breakfast as well. And did I mention that I topped it with biscoff sauce…oh yes, I did.
I have, in the past, tried to make a bread pudding and the recipe included a water bath and all that jazz…well, I did something wrong there because it didn’t turn out well at all. And I haven’t tried again since. But I will try just about anything in the name of pumpkin! This was super easy, no water bath, no worries – just an unbelievably wonderful new way to enjoy pumpkin.

Wondering if I am missing something…I see butter at the bottom of the ingredient list for the sauce but the recipe calls for butter in the 8×8 pan with the bread and I don’t know the measurement. ???????
