If you ask me, the rum sauce is what makes this bread pudding recipe extra special! Obviously, you shouldn’t serve rum to kids, haha! So if you’re serving this for children, too, you can make a vanilla sauce as well as the rum sauce.
This is, without a doubt, the number one favorite in our house. I make this at least every other week, whether it’s a special occasion or just a weeknight meal. Sometimes I’ve even made this for breakfast (with vanilla, instead of rum I might add!)
Ingredients
Bread Pudding:
1 cup Borden whole milk
1/2 cup SunMaid raisins
1/2 cup packed light brown sugar
1/3 cup granulated sugar
1¼ teaspoons vanilla extract
1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1 (12-ounce) can evaporated milk
3 large egg whites
1 large egg
10 cups of ½ inch cubed white bread
Rum Sauce:
1 cup Borden whole milk
1 tablespoon Argo cornstarch
1/2 cup granulated sugar
2 tablespoons Land O’ Lakes butter
3 tablespoons white rum
Instructions:
To prepare the pudding, combine the milk, raisins, brown sugar, granulated sugar, vanilla extract, cinnamon, evaporated milk, egg whites and egg in a large mixing bowl, and stir well with a whisk. Add bread cubes, and toss gently. Cover bread mixture, and chill 1 hour.
Preheat oven to 350°. Spoon the bread mixture into an 11 x 7-inch baking dish coated with cooking spray. Bake bread mixture at 350° for 45 minutes or until set.
To prepare the sauce, combine milk and cornstarch in a small bowl. Combine 1/2 cup granulated sugar and butter in a medium saucepan over medium heat. Add the milk mixture, and bring to a boil. Cook mixture until thick (for about 4 minutes), stirring constantly. Remove from heat, and stir in the rum.
Spoon rum sauce over pudding when ready to eat.

You wouldn’t have to use real rum. You could use rum flavoring if you have children. This looks and sounds delicious!
Hi, just wondering, wouldn’t we use less rum flavoring than the actual rum ?
You realize the alcohol cooks out of the rum, right?! All that left is the flavor. So no need to be concerned about the children becoming drunks!
Want to tinker with it a little? Substitute white chocolate chips for the raisins.
Oh pish posh. The alcohol cooks off anyway. Ridiculous.
This is true – essentially that’s what it ends up being anyway, the flavoring of rum since the alcohol is cooked out. Keep calm and rum on. LOL
The rum does not get cooked off because it’s added at the very end. It doesn’t come to a boil, so the alcohol stays in it.
Finally someone said it !
there is alcohol in the extract!!
FFS – it’s 3 ****ing tablespoons of rum. Jesus, get a grip. Not even your hellspawn would get ‘drunk’ off that. If you don’t want rum in it, don’t add it. It’s a recipe, not a law.
Way to put it. I agree its a recipe not a law change it to suit your family.
A lot of these comments are rude. She shared a family recipe with all of you so be grateful.
I don’t think they are criticizing the recipe. There is nothing there to criticize such a delicious recipe. They are criticizing the people who are making children targets for their displeasure. Grow up, people. If you are worried about your children, don’t make it. There are countless recipes out there and someone also said that the vanilla sauce would work well with it.
Sigh….love the recipe. ..but the comments …c’mon folks…really??
For what it’s worth:
It’s only 3 tablespoons of rum.
It will mostly cook off, since you are adding it to the still hot, sauce. Alcohol has a very low evaporation temperature.
Real vanilla extract will probably have just as much alcohol left after being added to the hot sauce mixture.
My family just LOVES your recipe and yummy rum sauce never hurt anyone!
Alcohol DOES burn out and what is left becomes a carbohydrate…SUGAR! We can always use more sweetness! I love the pish posh comment lmao!
THANK YOU FOR SHARING, TAKING TIME TO DO SO, COOL
WOW.. lOVE THE RECIPE.. DELISH. THANKS SO MUCH FOR SHARING THIS !!! By the way if ya dont want it in there dont put it in.. we are all adults here and all you bible pushers dont want it then dont. It’s not a sin to have alcohol it is a sin to waller in it…There is a but a small amout of alcohol left is any .. that not enough to get your head swimming over.. LOL .. stay cool and be calm it is just a RECIPE 🙂
Recipe for the pork roast please!!!!
love this and instead of waiting to put rum sauce on when ready to serve,,,when cake is cooked some, i will add sauce so rum flavor can soak in,,,,might add just a bit more and this is for Fish-fry and bet ya can’t guess where at,,,,,,hahahaha,,,,,they will love it. Thank you for shareing my friend.
Some people may not want to use rum because they do not use any alcoholic products [that are used for drink]…can you not respect that and not try perhaps to diminish them?
I’m not diminishing anyone with this reply, but as several people pointed out – this is a recipe. If you don’t wish to make it, don’t make it. If you wish to make, then cook on and enjoy! There really isn’t any need to bash either end of the spectrum. Let recipes be recipes! LOL!
My mother used to make bread pudding with raisins, day old biscuits and apple sauce. No one in family checked to see if written down before she passed away 30 years ago. It was delicious!!
We had plans to make this and we might have but am not totally sure if we did. After reading about the kids and alcohol comment we got really worried so after getting the ingredients together we decided to just drink the rum while making the pudding. Anyway, long story short, woke up with a headache and dishes in the sink and remembered we didn’t have kids.
What a laugh I had reading your comment!
