Tips:
- Use stale bread for a better texture. Fresh bread will make the pudding too soft and mushy.
- Don't overmix the bread and milk mixture. Overmixing will make the pudding tough.
- Let the pudding rest for at least 30 minutes before baking. This will allow the bread to absorb the milk and eggs.
- Bake the pudding in a water bath. This will help to prevent the pudding from drying out.
- Serve the pudding warm with your favorite sauce. Vanilla sauce, whiskey sauce, or caramel sauce are all great options.
