Crockpot Bread Pudding
This crockpot bread pudding recipe is almost too easy!
Bread pudding is a favorite in our family, but making it the traditional way can sure be a messy undertaking!
This crockpot bread pudding recipe couldn’t be easier! Five minutes of prep, and five minutes to layer in the slow-cooker (or less depending on how fast you work).
We love this recipe because it is perfect for little helpers to join in. I like to let my girls do the layering of ingredients, and they love to set the timer. But everyone’s favorite part is taste-testing when the “baking” is complete!
Oh, and did I mention how amazing your house will smell while it cooks?!
