Caramel Apple Reyes White Delight Bread Pudding

By Beth P. Heiserman

 

Many bread pudding recipes are made with “hard” sauce that has whisky in it. Hard sauce is generally butter, sugar and liquor. I have made a variation with fruit and Reyes White Port.  I hope you enjoy this as much as I do with a glass of Reyes White Port.

This recipe requires three steps: Bread, Custard, and Caramel Reyes White Delight Sauce.  You can make the entire recipe from scratch or you can purchase the bread already made.
