Bread pudding is a homey, comfort food dessert. Vegan bread pudding is easy and simple to make, and you probably have all or most of the ingredients in your cupboard or refrigerator already. If you have bread that is going stale, bread pudding is a great way to use it.

Typical bread pudding includes eggs, cream, or milk, but you don't need any of these for a vegan version. This recipe is also low in fat, without any additional vegan margarine, oil, or egg replacer.

Dress it up and top the bread pudding with a dollop of vegan tofu whipped cream, fruit compote, or fresh berries. A vegan rum sauce is a tempting option that makes a nice brunch dish to serve the family, especially during the holiday season.
