One of our favorite places to get breakfast (or any meal for that matter) is a local bakery and cafe called Kneaders.
They are known for their amazing baked goods, including their raspberry bread pudding. Oh. My. Goodness.
It is seriously heavenly. It is so full of flavor and the vanilla cream sauce on top is to die for. I’m planning on making this for my hubby on Valentine’s Day, so obviously calories don’t count.
I have never been a huge fan of bread pudding, but this recipe will honestly take your breath away after the first bite, is is just that delicious. It is so easy to make, comes together in minutes, and I am not kidding, it tastes amazing.
Can bread pudding change your life, because I’m pretty sure this recipe did.
Does any bread work for this recipe?
This recipe calls for aged white bread. You could easily switch this up and use any kind of bread you prefer. We prefer the aged bread, because it is soaking in cream, and gets a little soft, that you don’t want it to be bread soup.
If you are looking for alternative bread options, here are a few of our favorite for this recipe:
- Cinnamon swirl bread (this would be absolutely amazing with this recipe.
- Wheat bread (a healthier alternative to this recipe)
- Sour dough bread
- French bread
- Cinnamon raisin bread
- Homemade bread
Really any bread will work with this recipe, as long as it’s a little bit aged and dry.

A www! Gonna make some for weekend brunch.
Just FYI–your recipe differs from the original you cited in that you say to fold the raspberries, sugar and juice into the bread mixture and the original says to mix those ingredients separately.
Your version was a little confusing because the instructions say to put 3/4 of the bread mixture in the 9×13 pan and then spread the fruit filling over the top, but you had already instructed your user to fold the fruit into the bread. 🙂
When you say heavy cream do you mean whipping cream
Yes, Heavy whipping cream.
My husband always wants this for his birthday instead of cake! We’ve learned over the years though that you only need to make 1/3 of the sauce. And we use half the amount of sugar in the bread/cream/raspberry mixture and it comes out great!
