This is an awesome recipe - I used cinnamon raisin Challah bread because it lends a slightly different flavor and is so incredibly rich.

I love bread pudding and have a good recipe, but wanted to try something new. I used white bread and added raisins and cinnamon. I topped it with my lemon pudding recipe. It was very good, smooth and rich. I'm sure I'll make this again!

I just wanted to thank you for an excellent recipe! I have been searching for deserts that i can make for my boyfriend, who has to cut back on sugar. i substituted the 1-1/2 cups of sugar with Splenda and it turned out perfect! i did use real sugar when i whipped the egg whites, but 3tbsps isn't bad overall! This was a delicious recipe that i will make time and time again. thank you so much for posting this recipe....
