I'm allergic to coconut, so I substituted almond milk and almond extract. The pudding turned out great!

I'm not sure what I did wrong, but my pudding turned out dry and crumbly. I'm going to try again using a different recipe.

This bread pudding was a bit too sweet for my taste. I would recommend using less sugar next time.
