Really great recipe. I love bread pudding and this one puts a little different twist on things with the corn flakes giving it that cripy texture. Will definately make again.

It is probably my own fault that I didn't like this recipe better. It says "crispy" and it says the mixture will be fairly dry. Still, I was expecting something more like regular bread pudding but with a crispy top. What I got was a good tasting dessert, crispy throughout, with a subtle rhubarb flavor but not a bread pudding texture.
