A fabuolous bread pudding recipe Syd, and honestly one of the best I have tried in a long time! WHY? I think it is the choice of bread, the evaporated milk, apples, vanilla and cinnamon! I did not have challah, well not in name, but I did have a similar type of bread with the same texture and baking method. I made the full amount, and gave half of the bread pudding to an elderly neighbour as a mid-Lent treat! Worth every one of the 5 stars, and another great recipe from one of my favourite chefs! Thanks! Made for the Meat Pies group in the Aus/NZ recipe swap, Syd is a teammie!! FT:-)
