It would have been easy except that taking bread from frozen-solid loaf state to bread crumb state as fast as possible was a little bewildering and time-consuming. I used the anglaise above to make the sauce, which had finely chopped hazelnuts and chocolate in it. I thought it would look messy, but it looks rather nice, almost confetti-like… but I need to figure out how to find the center of plates. Also, I wish this pudding tasted more chocolate-y, rather than nutty and bread-y.

And I like that I have an alternative to bread pudding for the next time I have leftover bread. Hi Sam — This is definitely a dessert that makes ordinary ingredients stand out in the best way.
