Can I freeze bread pudding

Hello,


I have two batches of bread pudding in the oven as there was quite a bit of bread unexpectedly left over. I would like to freeze half of it but do not know if it works as usually it goes in a flash so any help would be appreciated. It is bread pudding and not bread & butter pudding which I know does not freeze well.


Thank you and also thank you for this thread which is really interesting and helpful :)

    Thank you Suki, :T
    One lot went, still hot, within the hour and the others I vacuum sealed, dated and chucked in the freezer. Such a cheap way of using up bread and makes a lovely pudding heated up and with a bit of custard or popped in a lunch box, so very filling. :)

    If I don't freeze I'd eat it all. Wrap in tin foil and oven cook from frozen, its perfect. The microwave leaves it a little soggy... I mis read your post I freeze bread and butter pudding and it's amazing reheated slowly from frozen on a lowish heat for 20 to 30 minutes.
