Best Ever Bread Pudding image

This is an easy way to use up stale French or Italian Bread. It is delicious warm or cold. It can be varied by using peeled apples, or dried cranberries, cherries, or blueberries in addition to or instead of the raisins. It is very good plain; but, I especially enjoy it with a Lemon Sauce topping. Refer to Recipe #21838.
