Submitted by mandabears

"This is a Sandra Lee recipe. I am going to post exactly as she did. The second time I made it I used 2 cups sliced Granny Smith apples, the entire 16 ounce loaf of raisin bread and elimated the almonds, extra raisins and rum extract. I also did not make the sauce, we were less than impressed with the sauce, the pudding is awesome."
