There’s nothing better than a recipe that can take pantry staples and transform them into a mouthwatering treat. It kind of feels like magic, doesn’t it? And this Peach Baked Pudding does exactly that. With basic ingredients, some white bread, and peach fruit cups this bread pudding couldn’t be much easier to make. All while tasting like it came straight out of Grandma’s kitchen. This kind of simplicity can’t be beat!

When it comes to bread pudding, it’s all about the texture. We want that classic rich and eggy custard, but don’t want it to be too heavy. Cubed white sandwich bread soaks up a buttery, vanilla custard, and as it bakes, everything melds together into a dessert that’s sweet but not too overpowering. Find those little bites of peach throughout, no one would guess they’re from a fruit cup! A sprinkle of brown sugar over the top caramelizes in the oven and adds just the right amount of crunch.

You can serve it warm straight from the oven or chill it overnight and enjoy it cold the next day. Either way, it’s guaranteed to disappear fast, especially if you serve it with a scoop of vanilla ice cream or a dollop of whipped cream. Whether you’re feeding a crowd at brunch or bringing dessert to a summer potluck, this Peach Baked Pudding is sure to be a hit!
