For a little something extra, try this southern U.S. recipe with traditional Bourbon sauce:
Loaf French bread
1 Quart milk
3 Eggs
2 c Sugar
2 tb Vanilla extract
2 ts Ground cinnamon
1 c Raisins
3 tb Melted margarine
WHISKEY SAUCE
1 c Sugar
1 Stick butter
-(or margarine)
1 Egg, beaten
2 oz Bourbon whiskey or
-Southern Comfort;
-rum also works well
This is the classic New Orleans bread pudding. You can enrich it by using half-and-half instead of milk, and an extra egg; you can add different fruits, nuts, etc., but we think simpler is better.

Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Tear bread into chunks and soak in milk.
Crush with hands to make sure milk has soaked through. Add eggs, sugar, vanilla, cinnamon, raisins and stir well. Pour melted margarine or butter in bottom of a heavy 9 x 14 baking pan. Add bread mixture (and we sprinkle more cinnamon and raisins on top) and bake until very firm, about 40 mins. Cool pudding, cube it and put it into
individual dessert dishes. When ready to serve, add whiskey sauce and heat under broiler for a few minutes
Whiskey sauce
A variation that we like is to use Southern Comfort (Bourbon) for the sauce instead of whiskey. Cream sugar and butter and cook in a double-boiler until very hot and well-dissolved. Add well-beaten egg very slowly and whip very fast so egg doesn't curdle. Cool and add liquor.

110g (4oz) Currants, Raisins or Sultanas(or mixed fruit)
50g (2oz) Brown Sugar
50g (2oz) Butter
� tsp Mixed Spice
1 Egg
Milk
Pre-heat oven to 170�C: 325�F: Gas 3
Break bread into small pieces; soak in cold water at least 1 hour
Strain and squeeze out as dry as possible.
Place into a basin and mash with a fork.
Add the dried fruit, sugar, mixed peel and mixed spice, mixing well.
Add the egg and enough milk to enable the mixture to drop easily from a spoon.
Place into a greased baking tin.
Bake for about an hour or until slightly firm to the touch.
When done turn out on to a hot dish.
Turn out dredge with sugar and serve hot with custard, or allow to cool.
This is simillar to the Delia Smith recipe which I have used but it's in one of her old books and would take too long to type.
I haven't made bread pudding for a while .I used to work in a Bakers and we used to get the stale bread and I used to make it quite often. My mouth is watering as I am typing this !!
