Hello Everyone!

Thanks for stopping by today to talk about this twist on traditional  read pudding ,because why would you make bread puddingwith just bread when there are donuts available? As Marie Antoinrtte is said to have exclamed” Let them eat cake *. Just fine with me!

In my continuing effort not to let  food go to waste , I had a half dozen cake donuts that were more stale then a dip in coffee would cure.Why not elevate the donuts with an infused custard, and have a great wake and bake entree or a dessert for a later day. I made thistle first time with staledonuts, then no clearance  for weeks had to buy non discounted donuts and leave them out  to get stalewhen I remade the pudding for the pictures.

I have used both full size donuts as well as mini donuts. I have used plain cake , cinnamon  and sugar, toasted coconut. And powder sugar. Each will give you a slightly different flavorin the finished pudding. You can also experiment with different spices (think cardamom and mace) or dried fruits /nurs  you add (like cherries or dates or pecans or peanuts), sprinkle on some raw sugar before baking of serve with whip cream  (see receipt for infused cream)  or ice cream.

Fun fact # 29 : Most of the world spells ” donuts”in the US . The rest of the world use the longer   form doughnut the shortened form  of the word was populari?ed by the fast food chain Dunkin Donuts in the 1950’s, whi h has now dropped the donuts from their name. So.uch for innovention.
