Too Much Bread? Make These Bacon Cheddar Leek Bread Pudding Muffins
I don't know, but am I the only person who gets sucked in by sales at the supermarket and leaves with two loaves of bread? Mind you, the bread is probably going bad which is most likely why it's on sale... Regardless of whether you have bread to get rid of, or are looking for an easy brunch recipe, look no further because this bacon, cheddar and leek bread pudding is where it's at.
For this recipe, I used Texas toast, but you can really use just about any kind of bread, from baguettes to brioche. What I love about these muffins is that they pack a punch of flavour and they are perfectly portable for a grab and go breakfast or for sharing at a potluck brunch. Of course, you can always make the recipe in a pan as well—whatever satisfies your hanger.
