Fried Bread Pudding or, The Best French Toast In The World

Does something like this really need words?  It's full of butter and cream and it's fried, I mean come on?!

Two things to keep in mind here: the bread pudding should be refrigerated before frying in butter and make sure that you slice it thick.  Fry in butter until crusty and golden and serve with some maple syrup!

I use the Tartine bread pudding recipe which can be found here.

Making Brioche Bread Pudding

I was recently gifted a delicious home made Brioche loaf that was screaming to be made into bread pudding, so that's exactly what I did.  I always use the Tartine Bakery recipe which calls for slicing and stacking the brioche bread and then adding the creamy goodness.

I think I'll take some of this bread pudding and fry it in some butter tomorrow for breakfast.   Very decadent!

Do you have a favorite bread pudding recipe?  I'd love to hear about it in the comments.
