Bread pudding is a luxurious way to savor bread that would otherwise be tossed to the birds. The just-about-effortless process combines day-old torn bread, whisked eggs, cream or milk, vanilla, citrus zest, chocolate, or nuts. It can be dressed up with caramel or served solo à la mode. So what if you replaced the hearty bread with a soft cake donut? The result is a mass of tender donuts ladened with custard that just melt in your mouth. To make this more nostalgic, we’ve added raspberry preserves once baked, so you’ll feel like you’re eating a glorified jelly donut.
