This has become a tradition in our house for Christmas morning breakfast. I once missed a year making it and everyone was disappointed. It is definitely something that everyone looks forward to!

My family loved this!!! The only thing I'm unsure about is wether the bottom layer is supposed to be crunchy? Mine wasn't but it was still sooooo good!

The first time I made this, I didn't care for it. I tried it again and I love it. Bringing it to room temp. is important and I also feel that it taste better when using pure vanilla. I also added a sleeve of cinnamon graham crackers(crushed on top before baking.I am sure you could add blueberries or some other fruit if you would like.

I have made this many times. First time I fixed it was for Christmas breakfast. Everyone loved it. I did not have the Grand Marnier so didn't use it & never have & the recipe is still great. It is even better the next day as a left over. I also usually don't use the Challah bread & it works fine.

I have made this dish many times and it is perfect! It is on the sweet side but what the heck! : I use Kings Hawaiian Bread instead of the bread that it calls for. I also add peacans or walnuts. The Grand Mariner is wonderful but if you choose not to use it I'm sure it will be great! I usually let it sit for 24 hours and I do take it out quite early to let it set at room temp. I never get it quite entirely at room temperature but it still turns out awsome! I also sprinkle powder sugar all over it when it cools a bit. Leftovers are even better!

I make this every Easter, along with several other dishes that vary, and this is the one recipe that is requested over and over. This is so simple to make (the night before and then just bake off in the morning. I love the idea one reviewer had of adding the nuts to the bottom of the pan! Will try that next year!

I made this for Christmas brunch for my family and they loved it. So, I decided to make it for the Inauguration brunch for extended family and a few friends, and I've had to print out 5 copies of this recipe today!!

I made a few substitutions, like Portuguese Sweet Bread for Challah, and pure maple syrup for corn syrup. I even used Chambord in place of Gran Marnier for a bit of a rasberry flavor and it all works. Many thanks!

I made this for brunch and it was a big hit. I did alter the recipe slightly by adding more bread than called for and I think this kept the recipe from coming out soggy.

This has been my most requested recipe from family and friends. Please note, what the recipe does not tell you, spray the bottom of the pan with/pam so you can invert onto a platter for serving. I have substituted the challah for panettone, italian fruit bread, and put sliced peaches, raisins and craisins in and served it as a dessert with vanilla ice cream. If you think breakfast was a hit, try it this way. I called it "creme brulee bread pudding" served it for a New years dinner party.
