Bread Pudding is an economical and traditional dessert in many homes.  It is very easy to make this pudding recipe gluten free and if necessary dairy free.

Loaded with raisins and spices this is a tasty treat any time of the year.

This recipe yields 9 servings but depending on size of serving can stretch to 12.

I know some people like to smother it in cream but others may prefer to top it off with some whipped dessert topping or ice cream.

Another delicious option is to whip up a batch of Brown Sugar Sauce to pour over the pudding.

Make Gluten Free Bread Pudding a really decadent treat and combine toppings!  I love it with the warm sauce contrasted with the whipped topping.

To start making Gluten Free Bread Pudding I took out some gluten free bread.  I used a loaf that has wide slices so size would be similar to a regular bread slice.

Then I cubed the bread.

I tossed the cubed bread into a large mixing bowl and let it sit out over night to dry out the bread.

To begin the next day, I poured some almond milk over the dried bread in the mixing bowl.

Then I poured boiling water over the raisins I was going to be using in the Bread Pudding. I let them sit while I prepared the rest of the ingredients.

Next I melted some butter in the microwave.

I drizzled the butter over the cubed bread and stirred it up a bit.

Then I put 4 large eggs, granulated sugar, ground cinnamon, vanilla extract, cloves and nutmeg into a small mixing bowl.

I whisked the ingredients together until they were well combined.

Then I spread the soaked bread cubes out into a greased 8″ square baking pan.

Next I drained the raisins.  The raisins could also be stirred in with the bread crumbs if you prefer.

Then I sprinkled the raisins over top of the bread in the baking pan.  I tend to use more raisins than suggested because I love them!

I poured the liquid ingredients over top of the bread and raisins.

I gently pushed all the bread down to be covered with the liquid.

After covering all the bread with the liquid, I baked the pudding in a preheated 350F oven for 45 minutes.

After 45 minutes I removed the Gluten Free Bread Pudding from the oven.

Nothing says comfort food like some old fashioned Bread Pudding!

I served it up warm.

Add some cream or whipped topping to complement the warm pudding.

Have some warm Brown Sugar Sauce ready to smother the pudding with after serving.

Enjoy every mouthful of Gluten Free Bread Pudding!
