This is a great recipe for having company over for breakfast or brunch. We have made it many times for various holidays. I often leave out raisins (they do burn if not firmly placed inside the bread. I would rank it in the top 10 of all Ina's recipes, right up there with her shortbread cookies from The Barefoot Contessa Parties! book; a simple yet exquisite and versatile cookie...

Easy to make and I added an ingredient of my own. I put in chopped pecans. My husband and I absolutely loved this recipe

I made this for my husband because he loves French toast but I dislike standing in front of the stove; he loved it!

I made this for our Christmas morning breakfast and it was fabulous! My boys loved it!! The only changes I made were cutting the bread in cubes instead of slices, and I had to use maple syrup instead of honey because I was out of honey. This will be part of my breakfast every Christmas from now on.

Surprisingly after all these years I had never made this dish, but finally made it for a group of 6 in Palm Desert. Turned out delicious! Followed the recipe exactly (except couldn't find Brioche so substituted Challah. Wonderful! Another A+ recipe from Ina!

I combined Ina's Crossiant Bread Pudding with her Breakfast Bread Pudding and made a few other changes by adding Craisins instead of raisins (didn't have raisins and one chopped apple. I sprinkled the apple with cinnamon sugar and placed it on top of one layer of sliced day-old crossiants, added the remaining crossiants on top of the apples and craisins then poured the custard over the top of the crossiants. It was really very good served with maple syrup.

This was delicious, but I think the rack was too high in the oven so the top got too crisp. I used dried cranberries plumped in OJ which was delicious. Next time I will cut or tear the bread into 1-1 1/2 inch cubes as another reviewer suggested. This is a recipe that you can really make your own through improvisation.

This barely served 5 of us (which included 2 teenage boys. I wish the reviewers who made it for a crowd managed the baking, so please comment!

Excellent dish. I took this to a pot luck breakfast and it was a big hit. I used Challah, and cubed it into (approx 1 inch squares. I used craisins because I didn't have raisins, I added a teaspoon of ground cinnamon and the juice of one of the oranges, and I only used 2 cups half and half. I put it all together the night before and let everything marry overnight in the refrigerator. It was moist, delicious and although you could pick out the flavor of the orange, the consensus was that it was delightful, not overpowering. A real crowd pleaser!

Unbelievable! I used Italian panettone, soaked cranberries in warmed orange juice and honey and distribute those in between the layers of panettone. The soaking of the bread is critical.
I added toasted almonds on top.
Hats off to Ina G. my favorite chef

This recipe was a hit! My husband loved it! I dressed it up a little with some cinnamon and brown sugar on top of each slice of bread. It's a very rich recipe but I will definitely be making this again!
