If you’ve been baking at home these days, you may find yourself with excess bread. It’s a good time for bread pudding, the classic way to transform less-than-fresh bread into something tasty. Our recipes are rich in protein, mushrooms, and our signature truffle butter. Easy to make, they are great for Mother’s Day brunch and for virtually cooking together if you can’t be with mom this year. Read on for 3 recipes that will make any brunch better.

Croissant Breakfast Bread Pudding

If you like croissants (who doesn’t?) you’ll love this savory breakfast casserole packed with smoky ham, sautéed mushrooms, and cheddar cheese. Buttery croissants take the place of bread for delicious results. This recipe will serve 6 and can be prepped the night before then baked right from the fridge in under an hour.

Wild Mushroom Bread Pudding

This simple savory bread pudding recipe is enriched with our organic mushroom mix and black truffle butter.  This versatile side pairs well with meat or poultry, and can be made in a large dish or individual ramekins – it’s delicious either way. Store individual puddings in the fridge – or freeze them – for at-the-ready pudding any time of the day.

Challah Breakfast Bread Pudding

This make-ahead challah breakfast casserole is a great way to use day-old bread. It’s generously studded with our truffle turkey breast – you can use any turkey breast– maitake mushrooms, shallots, cheese, and our flavorful truffle butter for extra measure. Prep the night before then bake it right from the fridge in under an hour for a Sunday brunch with the family.
