    Peach Bread Pudding is a family favorite; warm and gooey, with chunks of juicy peaches, smothered in Salted Caramel Sauce. If this sounds like a recipe that you would enjoy, you're in luck. Today, I'm sharing my favorite recipe with YOU!

    Recently, my husband, daughter, and I were sitting in the living room watching TV. Suddenly, my husband turned to my daughter, Nena, and asked: "where can we go to get some really good Peach Bread Pudding?"

    Nena didn't have an answer for him. After all, bread pudding isn't something you see on many menus.

    Scott didn't fool me, I knew exactly what he was hinting at. And since my friend, Diane, had recently dropped off a few bags of home-grown frozen peaches, I knew what had to be done.

    Why This Recipe Works

    This Peach Bread Pudding recipe is literally fool-proof. It's a matter of adding bread chunks and chopped peaches inside a baking dish and covering them with a custard mix before baking.

    So if you're looking for an easy recipe that's sure to be a crowd-pleaser, this is it!

    I usually make this Peach Bread Pudding on the fly. This means I use whatever ingredients I have at home. This includes fresh, frozen, or canned peaches. But if you have all three options, go for fresh every time!

    How to Make Peach Bread Pudding

    Preheat the oven to 350-Degrees F.

    Step 1: Spray a 9" x 13" baking dish with non-stick cooking spray. Tear the croissants into bite-sized chunks and add to the baking dish.

    Step 2: Nestle chopped peaches in between the torn bread.

    Step 3: Mix the remaining ingredients until incorporated. Pour the custard mix over the pan, making sure to immerse the croissant chunks in the liquid.

    Step 4: Place the filled baking dish onto a cookie sheet. Bake for an hour, or until set.

    Recipe FAQs

    What are some common bread pudding ingredients?

    stale bread
    peaches
    milk
    eggs
    butter
    sugar
    spices (cinnamon, nutmeg, ginger)
    vanilla extract

    What are some good Peach Bread Pudding toppings?

    Caramel Sauce— Bread pudding and caramel sauce go together like peanut butter and jelly. Yes, bread pudding is already delicious, but it's a hundred times better drenched in caramel sauce.

    Bourbon Sauce—Not a fan of caramel sauce? I find that hard to wrap my mind around. However, if this is you, try this Bread Pudding with Bourbon Sauce instead.

    Ice Cream—Another great topping option is ice cream. French Vanilla ice cream is my family's favorite. Adding a scoop or two to the warm bread pudding results in a creamy, gooey sauce that's irresistible.

    Pro Tips

    • Instead of bread, consider using stale croissants or Challah bread.
    • If you don't have whole milk, you also add condensed milk, half and half, or coconut milk
    • Instead of butter, use coconut oil for a healthier option.
    • For a boozy bread pudding add a splash of brandy or rum.
    • Nuts (walnuts and pecans) and raisins can also be delicious in bread pudding.
    • Both sauce and ice cream adds moisture and creaminess to bread pudding, especially if you accidentally overcook the bread pudding.
