This was wonderful and so easy to make. I love bread pudding but the kids weren't so sure; however, they all enjoyed it. Used almost 8 cups day old French bread and 2% milk. Bought a can of organic pumpkin pie mix by mistake and was searching for a good recipe in which to use it. Glad I found this!Thanks for sharing the recipe!

Good flavor, not as sweet as other bread pudding recipes but the sauce makes up for it. My major complaint is that the bread pudding was damp and almost soggy when it was done. The crockpot keeps the moisture in, as opposed to evaporating when something is baked. If I make again I will bake it instead.

Perfect for a chilly autumn evening with a cup of coffee or hot cocoa!!! I made in 3 quart casserole in the oven and used my own canned pumpkin. Added 1/2 tsp. ground ginger and other than that I would not change a thing!! Hubby absolutely loves this and 2 larger servings confirmed it. Thanks for sharing!
