Directions
Bread Pudding Directions:
- Tear the cinnamon rolls into small pieces and place into a greased 9” x 13” casserole dish. (In the photo, I used a small casserole and a 9” x 9” so I could share with a neighbor.)
- Sprinkle the raisins and pecan pieces over the cinnamon roll pieces.
- Beat the milk, eggs, sugar and vanilla until well blended, then pour over the cinnamon rolls.
- Cover and refrigerate for 2 to 3 hours. Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
- Slice the butter and dot the top of the rolls with it. Place in oven and bake 45 to 50 minutes until it is set in the center and bubbling around the edges.
- Whisk all ingredients together and cover over medium heat for 12 to 15 minutes, whisking constantly.
- The mixture will thicken considerably and even more after it cools.
- Sauce can be served either warm or at room temperature. (I like the sauce on Udi’s lemon streusel muffins, too…if there is ever any leftover. )
