  • If you don't have stale bread, you can toast fresh bread and then let it cool before using it.
  • Add your favorite mix-ins to the bread pudding, such as raisins, nuts, chocolate chips, or fruit.
  • Bake the bread pudding in a water bath to prevent it from drying out.
  • Serve the bread pudding warm or cold, with a drizzle of maple syrup or whipped cream.
