This sticky bun bread pudding from Modern Creole: A Taste of New Orleans Culture and Cuisine combines two New Orleans favorites.
“Bread pudding is one of the more popular desserts in New Orleans, and you will find it on almost every menu in the city. Soaking the bread overnight is highly recommended and allows for the mixture to really come together before baking. There are many varieties served in Southern homes and restaurants that include additions like raisins or fresh seasonal berries. My mom still gives me grief about leaving out the raisins in my version, but I personally hate them and so do my sisters. Find your favorite combination and make it a special treat for your family and friends,” says Eric Cook.
