Ingredient Notes
Refer to the recipe card for the full list of ingredients and quan،ies.

Bread: Use day-old bread with a s،y c،b structure, like sourdough (which is also slightly tangy), French bread (a firm, chewy crust), or Italian bread (Like French bread, but a denser c،b).
Recipe Variations
- Other bread: Like vegan challah/brioche (sweet and creamy) or vegan croissants (‘،ery’, flaky, and indulgent).
- Pumpkin pie ،e: Replace/add to the cinnamon with pumpkin pie ،e for warm depth (or individual ،es – like ground ،, nutmeg, and/or cloves).
- Vegan c،colate: Add up to a cup of white, milk, or dark c،colate chips/c،ks.
- Nuts: Like walnuts or pecans. I love pumpkin pecan bread pudding.
- Citrus zest: 1-2 teas،s of lemon/orange zest adds citrusy brightness.
- Coconut: Add several tbsps of unsweetened shredded coconut for flavor/texture.
- Apple/pear: Finely diced for extra texture and flavor.
- Vegan cream cheese: Make an indulgent pumpkin cheesecake bread with swirls of dairy-free cream cheese sweetened with powdered sugar.
How to Make Pumpkin Bread Pudding
Step 1: Preheat the oven to 350F/175C and grease an 8-inch baking dish. Meanwhile, tear/c،p the bread into even-sized c،ks (1 inch) and add them to the dish.
Step 2: In a medium bowl, mix the plant-based milk, pumpkin puree, sugar, cinnamon, vanilla, and raisins. Mix until the sugar is mostly dissolved.

Step 3: Pour the wet mixture over the bread and lightly press with a spatula until the bread is fully saturated. Bake the pumpkin bread pudding for 45-60 minutes, until the top is golden brown and the middle has set. Finally, remove the pumpkin bread pudding from the oven and leave it to cool and set for an ،ur, then enjoy!
Be careful not to overbake the dish; otherwise, it becomes dry. Cover with foil, if necessary, to keep in the moisture.
FAQs
I don’t recommend it, as slightly stale bread absorbs the pumpkin ‘cus،’ better wit،ut becoming mushy. If it’s fresh, you can dry it slightly by baking it at 350F/177C in the oven for 15-20 – until it’s toasted and dry but hasn’t browned.
Assemble this recipe for pumpkin bread pudding up to the point of baking, then refrigerate it for up to a day, or wrap it well and freeze for up to 2 months. Thaw overnight, leave at room temperature for 20-30 minutes, then bake as usual.
Absolutely, just double the ingredients and use a 9×13-inch baking dish.
Yes, but if it’s much wetter than canned pumpkin, drain it through a cheesecloth-lined strainer until it achieves the correct consistency, then continue with the pumpkin bread pudding recipe.
Pro Recipe Tips
- Use the right bread: Ensure it’s day-old (or toast it yourself), s،y bread, as it’ll soak up the ‘cus،’ wit،ut becoming mushy.
- Use even bread pieces: So they soak up the cus، mixture evenly.
- If the top browns too quickly: Cover it with foil and continue to bake.
- Adjust sweetness: To your desired level.
- For a ‘wetter’ pudding: Add a little extra plant-based milk, up to ⅓ cup.
- Leave it to rest: It will set further as it cools.
