At Ajpal, I add lots of tips in all of my recipes – because I am a home cook without any formal training, and I find I am more confident making dishes when I understand why it works, and what each ingredient means to the flavor of a recipe. My goal is for even the most beginner home cook to feel empowered in the kitchen.

Tips and Tricks to Perfect Keto Pumpkin Bread Pudding
After baking and cooling, you can absolutely freeze bread pudding to be eaten later.
I prefer to transfer bread pudding to an aluminum baking tray for freezing and easy thawing.
Bread pudding can last in the freezer for up to three months.
To reheat, thaw in refrigerator and then bake or microwave until piping hot.
You can make a loaf of my super easy Keto Sandwich Bread for this recipe if you would like a simple, delicious, homemade bread.
For a quicker recipe, you can use a brand of keto bread you love.
I suggest Sola Bread, or Base Culture bread – I love this cinnamon raisin variety!
FAQs
Since bread pudding is baked with pumpkin, eggs, and milk, you can use stale/dry bread. Do not use bread that tastes off, or is so dry it is stiff.
Bread pudding is a mixture of chunks of bread, eggs, milk, and other flavors, that becomes soft and puffy when cooked. Bread pudding is sweet and can be served for breakfast or dessert.
Bread pudding is fabulous with a sugary glaze, scoop of ice cream, or heaping dollop of whipped cream on top.
If you want a truly easy way to make this dessert without having the recipe stick to your slow cooker, line the slow cooker with parchment paper.
