Today I wanted to share a delicious recipe I created for brunch this week using all the leftover bread crusts I had from my kiddos sandwiches.

I loaded this bread pudding with all my favorite brunch foods including eggs, bacon, and lots of Gouda cheese. 

The best part- this savory dish is perfect for breakfast, lunch, or dinner!

 I saved all the leftover bread crusts from a loaf of bread for this recipe. 

My kiddos went through a phase where they didn’t want crusts on their sandwiches and I hated to waste it!

 In a large bowl, combine eggs, cream, maple syrup, allspice, and salt and pepper. 

Mix well with a whisk. 

 Add chopped bread and lightly push down until the bread is covered.

Make sure the bread soaking up the egg mixture.

 Now mix in chopped bacon.

Then add 1 cup shredded Gouda cheese.

 Pour into a greased baking dish.

Top with remaining 1/2 cup of cheese.

 Cover with aluminum foil and bake for 35-40 minutes at 350 degrees.

 Slice into squares and serve hot.

Hope you like this recipe as much as my family and I did!
