This time I tossed around a lot of ideas like baked oatmeal, bread, cookies, cupcakes and pies. Finally, though, a batch of stale, uneaten rolls in my fridge convinced me to make bread pudding. And I am so glad that I did. Not only was it delicious, it used up those rolls so they weren’t wasted.
The tartness of Granny Smith apples really went well with the sweetness of the caramel sauce. A healthy dash of cinnamon kept the kitchen smelling yummy for hours. All of my kids gave this dish a big thumbs up.
