Doing the egg/milk thing was a little too taxing for me so I dumped the milk, eggs, and vanilla in a bowl...Added a little cinnamon just for fun...Mixed it up a bit and dumped it on the bread... Used dark brown sugar... Perfect...

Very rustic and easy to make with items that are readily found in the pantry. I added a touch of cinnamon to my dish. Its definately best warm with just a little heavy cream poured on top!

Delicious! This is by far the best bread pudding I have ever had. I had a coupon for a loaf of free bread--and although it was the family size I only used about half the loaf. I also ran out of vanilla when I was making this recipe so I only used about 1 tsp of vanilla instead of the required amount. We had this cold, which is the way we like pudding. Thanks 1Steve for posting this keeper recipe. We will be making it often.

I don't eat bread pudding very often, but I had a lot of bread I was trying to use up and so I thought I would try this. I used whole wheat bread (as that is all I had) and it turned out great! All of the guests at my party raved about it. One note: be sure to use a VERY large bowl to mix the ingredients. I also made this ahead of time which worked out fine except that I would sprinkle the brown sugar on right before I place it in the oven next time.

Awesome! I made this today for the third time and it is still great. The flavor is unbelievable and it tastes good hot or cold. Serve it with some vanilla bean ice cream and its a great treat.

First, let me say I don't care for bread pudding because of the raisins. This one may change that. This is absolutely delicious. I'm making bread puddings for a terminally ill lady, and I'm trying to find all that I can. This was the first. I can imagine she is going to love this, because I sure know I loved the little one I made for me to just taste. Thanks, Aunt Emma, for passing on a delicious recipe.

This didn't last 10 minutes once it was out of the oven! I used 1 Tbsp. of vanilla, some cinnamon and a dash of nutmeg and it was wonderful.

I love this version of bread pudding! The brown sugar topping is what caught my attention while browsing recipes and I'm so glad it did. It gave it almost a sweet roll flavor; next time I'll add cinnamon and see if it bumps up the cinnamon roll impression. I put my 9x13 on a cookie sheet, just in case it cooked over but had no problems. It was a definite favorite with everyone in the family, from the 1 yr old on up. Thanks so much for sharing Aunt Emma's recipe with us.

Very good, I am eating it as I type. I did make the following changes, warmed the milk and butter together, added 1/2 ts cinnamon and a dash of nutmeg. I then topped it with a vanilla glaze that consist of 1/2 c of sugar, 1/2 c brown sugar, 1/2 c whipping cream, 1 1/2 tea of vanilla boiled to a glaze. Absolutely delicious.
