A Taste of Family History

 Grandma Kleinbriel was a country girl at heart and could bake better than anyone I knew. She believed in using ingredients on hand. Her bread pudding was a favorite with me and my cousins. Lucky for us, she had a huge apple tree in her backyard.

I enjoy making this recipe for my boys when they are home. The best part is having Flyboy in the kitchen with me while I bake. Spike some warmed apple cider and enjoy some romantic fun in the kitchen.
