Do You Have to Refrigerate Bread Pudding?

I made some this morning to take for Easter tomorrow. Do I need to refrigerate it since there's so much milk and eggs in it?

Yes, you would need to refrigerate it. Did you make it in the DCB? It would be really easy to heat up in the micro if you did!



I LOVE Bread Pudding! It's the ultimate comfort food for me.

No...I wanted more surface area = more "crust" so I did it in the square baker.

Thanks for the quick answer!!

My Dad and both of his brothers LOVE it, so I am making it for our family Easter dinner.

I made these super easy Baklava bars (use sugar cookie dough as the base and crumble up the little pyhlo dough crusts to make them crunchy and having a similar texture to baklava) and they turned out well too!

I need to get my deviled eggs done now! (or at least make up the filling today and assemble them tomorrow...)

RECIPES?!?!? please?

Here is the bread pudding one. Of course, I NEVER make a recipe without changing it...I used an entire package of day old crissonts (about 10+ cups cubed) and added some of our Cinnamon Plus. Other than that, the rest of the ingredients are the same as what it calls for.

I WANTED crust on the bread pudding, so I did not cook it in a water bath. Instead, I reduced the temp of the oven to 325. Took about 70 minutes to cook.

ETA: I used the square baker cuz I was already using my rectangle baker!

Here are the baklava bars. It only called for 8 of the 12 phylo shells to be used. I decided to crumble up 8 and add to the filling part, then crumble the remaining 4 on the top before baking the second time. I also decreased the amount of chopped walnuts to 1 cup.
