Biscuit Pudding
Report
Use leftover breakfast biscuits to make Biscuit Pudding for dessert. This is a delicious, economical, and very old-fashioned southern recipe.

Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 325 degrees.
- (Optional) If using a meringue: In a large mixing bowl beat the egg whites until nearly stiff. Add the sugar slowly while continuing to beat until stiff peaks form. Set the meringue aside.
- In a separate large mixing bowl, crumble the biscuits until they are coarse crumbs. (Start with 6 biscuits and add more if needed to get the correct texture.)
- Add the milk, eggs, vanilla, sugar, and butter to the crumbled biscuits. Mix well. If needed, add additional biscuits one at a time until a mushy texture is achieved – not too thin, not too thick.
- Transfer the pudding to a well-buttered round casserole or baking dish. Top with the meringue, if using.
- Bake for approximately 30 minutes or until the meringue is a rich, golden brown and the pudding is creamy but set.
- Note: If you chose not to use a meringue, dot the top of the pudding with two tablespoons of butter about halfway through cooking.
- Remove from the oven and allow to cool before serving.
Notes
- While a meringue is optional, I do highly recommend it. The meringue makes a lovely, fluffy topping for the biscuit pudding.
- Keep any leftovers tightly covered and stored in the refrigerator for up to four days. To freeze, omit the meringue; cool completely and store in a freezer-safe container for up to three months. Reheat leftover or thawed biscuit pudding in a low oven or in the microwave oven until warmed through.
- If you don't have homemade biscuits, simply use some of the excellent frozen biscuits on the market. My personal preference is Mary B’s brand buttermilk biscuits.
