Slow Cooker Bread Pudding

Looks easy enough right??!! Well nothing on my site is difficult, or does it require a lot of ingredients so you’ve got to give this one a try. Yes you can make cinnamon raisin bread pudding in your oven but during the hot summertime y’all don’t want to heat up your house anymore than need be.

FIRST – You should sign up for my free newsletter so you get new posts emailed to you twice a week and never miss out on anything! Let’s talk a little bit about slow cooking shall we?? First off I have a few different varieties and I love them all. Each one has an occasion to be used like….

1. This is my favorite 6 quart programmable one with a locking lid so it’s great for bringing to a potluck too.
2. If you just want to serve a few appetizers you should get this one that sit side by side one another.
3. I prefer not to use liners, but rather just spray olive oil inside before adding my food for easier cleanups.

Let me give you a peek of my pretty thang I bought recently. It goes with my kitchen so I can just leave it out on the countertop all the time. 😉

Bread Pudding in the Slow Cooker

I have made crockpot pumpkin bread which was amazing so thought I’d follow it up with bread pudding plus a pumpkin flavor. It’s perfect when it gets chilly outside.

If you don’t have a larger sized crockpot this is my favorite one, and crockpot liners are great too for easy cleanup if you’d rather use those than non stick spray and avoid a bit of scrubbing.

Crockpot Raisin Bread Pudding

For this recipe you use a loaf of french bread like my banana bread pudding or after picking fruit try blueberry bread pudding too!! I discard the ends because you don’t want super hard pieces.

I think adding lots of raisins makes it super yummy and/or you could take the skin off an apple and dice it up layering it with the bread and/or raisins as well!

We cook something in our crockpot at least twice a week just because it’s a dinner dinner idea and we are super busy with 3 kids and both of us working full time. It’s a lifesaver of an appliance I say.

You don’t want to overcook it. It should be a bit wet, as bread pudding usually is to maintain it’s moist texture and ooey gooey nature. If you love this easy pumpkin crockpot bread pudding recipe you’ve got to try our caramel apple bread pudding too!

1. Loaf of french bread – day old is best
2. Eggs
3. Milk
4. Pumpkin puree – canned or here is how to make homemade pumpkin puree
5. Brown sugar
6. Apples – great addition
7. Raisins – great addition
8. Vanilla
