Brown Sugar & Cherry Bread Pudding

This tasty vegan treat came out of a loaf of bread I didn’t want to waste that I had baked over the weekend. What better use than bread pudding? And no eggs either….better for the ol’ body!

  1. Now this is the perfect dessert during winter! I always plan to make bread pudding then my kids finish off all of the bread. I think this needs a latte for a double treat! 🙂

  2. What Holly said – – the bread disappears too fast to make pudding! I guess I need to hide away a few big slices next time I bake.
