Cinnamon Apple Pie Bread Pudding

Cinnamon Apple Pie Bread Pudding is a simple yet delicious dessert or breakfast that tastes like a combination of apple pie and cinnamon rolls.

A delicious, sweet bread pudding with apples, cinnamon, walnuts, and sugar drizzled with a sweet vanilla glaze that is super easy to make.

It is about this time in August when the temperatures reach 100 that I start dreaming about fall….cooler weather, fall colors, and fall foods, especially apples.

Cinnamon Apple Pie Bread Pudding

I was reading Real Housemom’s blog post where she mentioned driving to the Oregon coast when temperatures reached 100. In Southeast Texas there is nowhere I can drive to escape the heat. I could drive to the Texas Gulf coast and get a breeze to go with the 95 degree temperatures but that is about it.

So instead I cranked up the air conditioner and started baking. For me to make dessert, you know it has to be simple. I can’t decorate a cake or cupcake to save my life.

The dessert is so delicious yet so easy and budget friendly. Just bread, cream, eggs, sugar, cinnamon, apple pie filling, walnuts, and a sweet icing. It tastes like an apple pie cinnamon roll. It would be perfect for breakfast or dessert, and it will feed a crowd.

    Do you think this could be made in the crockpot?

    This looks amazing but my son is allergic to walnuts. Do you have a topping replacement alternative? Oats? Thanks!

      Hi Christina,

      I think it would be delicious even without the walnuts and no substitutions. However, if you wanted to add oats, that would be an option.

    Hey, should it be refrigerated?

      Hi Jen,

      Thanks for the question. It should be served warm. However, to store, I recommend covering it, preferably in an airtight container, or covering with wrap as tightly as possible. Store in the refrigerator, covered, for up to 3 days.

      Thanks,

      Michele
