- Served over Recipe #76931 Fantastic Caramel Bread Pudding (minus the caramel) and it was delicious. Very easy to make. I omitted the butter and the nutmeg and used a bit more than 2tsp vanilla. i will make this again. Thank you :)
- Thanks so much! I served this for Thanksgiving over my Fresh Apple-Walnut Cake. It was a hit! It would work well served with many things. I would love to try it with Pumpkin bread.
- As always, Kittencal...another amazing recipe!!! When I want a recipe that is spot on delicious and isn't over complicated I always pull up your recipe list. This sauce was unbelievably simply and OH so yummy!!
- It was great on apple dumplings. Thanks for the recipe!
- Pretty good; I made a half recipe and left out the nutmeg. (Had accidentally put too much nutmeg in the bread pudding.) It never did come to a boil, so I just took it off when it became thick and I think I got it a little too thick. Would have to try again; I probably messed it up somewhere!
