We are finally moved into our new apartment! There are still boxes to unpack & rooms to organize, but we’re getting there. At least we have internet again after nearly a week.
We really, really love this new apartment. And I don’t care to move again for at least a year--I think moving twice in the last 10 months allows me at least that luxury.
We thought this move would be easy. HA! Going from a 3rd floor apartment to another 3rd floor apartment is no picnic.... Were it not for the help of our amazing friends, I’m not sure I would have survived. I don’t think I’ve ever been so sore in my entire life....
Moving or not, I never want anyone who comes to our home to feel hungry. So we had a good amount of food & snacks available for our friends who helped us move. I even bought a large box of glazed yeast-raised doughnuts.
Well, I was apparently a little over zealous in my food buying because we ended up with leftover doughnuts. Even though I can’t eat them, I couldn’t bear to throw the stale doughnuts away.
Instead, I turned them to bread pudding. We’ve invited those same friends over for a housewarming party this weekend & I think doughnut bread pudding will be the perfect dessert to serve. If it lasts until then :)

8 ea Large Glazed doughnuts, day old
4 ea Eggs
3.5 oz (1/2 c) Granulated Sugar

1/2 tsp Cinnamon
1 c Heavy Cream
1 c Milk {I used 2%}

- In a medium bowl, whisk together the eggs, sugar, salt & cinnamon until well combined. Add the heavy cream, milk & vanilla.
- Pour the custard mixture over the doughnut pieces. Allow to soak a few minutes, then toss to combine.
- Transfer the mixture to the prepared baking dish. Place the baking dish into a larger pan with sides. Slide the pan into the oven, then pour hot water into the larger pan to make a water bath.
