And speaking of containers, the more compact the container, the better, because less free space means drying out slows down.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If you&rsquo;ve baked your own bread pudding, let it rest on the counter until it has thoroughly cooked. Otherwise, there will be condensation in the container or bag and lots of water drops as a result.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>All of <a href=\"https:\/\/www.canitgobad.net\/can-cheesecake-go-bad\/\">these practices work for cheesecake<\/a>, too.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"is-style-paragraph-tip\">If your bread pudding turned out super moist (like mine), I suggest putting it on a couple of paper towels before refrigerating. This helps remove any excess moisture so that you don&rsquo;t end up with a soggy bottom. You can also add some towels to the container or bag itself.<\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter size-large\"><noscript><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" width=\"800\" height=\"533\" src=\"https:\/\/www.canitgobad.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/Bread-pudding-in-storage-container.jpg\" alt=\"Bread pudding in storage container\" class=\"wp-image-3295\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.canitgobad.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/Bread-pudding-in-storage-container.jpg 800w, https:\/\/www.canitgobad.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/Bread-pudding-in-storage-container-500x333.jpg 500w, https:\/\/www.canitgobad.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/Bread-pudding-in-storage-container-768x512.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 760px) calc(100vw - 48px), 720px\"><\/noscript><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" width=\"800\" height=\"533\" src=\"https:\/\/www.canitgobad.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/Bread-pudding-in-storage-container.jpg.webp\" alt=\"Bread pudding in storage container\" class=\"wp-image-3295 lazyload\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.canitgobad.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/Bread-pudding-in-storage-container.jpg.webp 800w, https:\/\/www.canitgobad.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/Bread-pudding-in-storage-container-500x333.jpg.webp 500w, https:\/\/www.canitgobad.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/Bread-pudding-in-storage-container-768x512.jpg.webp 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 760px) calc(100vw - 48px), 720px\" data-pin-media=\"https:\/\/www.canitgobad.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/Bread-pudding-in-storage-container.jpg\" id=\"mv-trellis-img-3\" data-trellis-processed=\"1\"><figcaption>Bread pudding in a storage container<\/figcaption><\/figure><\/div>\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"sauces-and-toppings\">Sauces and Toppings<\/h3>\n\n\n<p>Many people top bread pudding with some sort of sauce or topping. Some prefer ice cream, while others go with custard or something as simple as whipped cream.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Should you store your bread pudding already topped, or not?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>That depends on what you use as a topping. Here&rsquo;s the lowdown:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul><li><strong>Ice cream.<\/strong>&nbsp;Add it right before serving; that&rsquo;s quite obvious.<\/li><li><strong>Whipped cream.<\/strong>&nbsp;Unless it&rsquo;s stabilized, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.canitgobad.net\/how-long-does-whipped-cream-last\/\">whipped cream keeps shape only for a day or so<\/a>. It&rsquo;s probably best to add it fresh.<\/li><li><strong>Custard and other fridge-friendly sauces.<\/strong>&nbsp;These store well, and you can refrigerate bread pudding topped with these with no problem.<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>Now, even if your sauce or topping keeps well in the fridge, there&rsquo;s one more issue. Many of these make the top wet or soggy. So if you like your top crispy, that&rsquo;s no good.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Long story short, unless your sauce stores well and you don&rsquo;t mind a slightly soggy top, it&rsquo;s better to add the topping when reheating the cake or right before serving it.<\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter size-large\"><noscript><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" width=\"800\" height=\"533\" src=\"https:\/\/www.canitgobad.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/Prepping-for-baking-bread-pudding.jpg\" alt=\"Prepping for baking bread pudding\" class=\"wp-image-3299\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.canitgobad.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/Prepping-for-baking-bread-pudding.jpg 800w, https:\/\/www.canitgobad.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/Prepping-for-baking-bread-pudding-500x333.jpg 500w, https:\/\/www.canitgobad.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/Prepping-for-baking-bread-pudding-768x512.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 760px) calc(100vw - 48px), 720px\"><\/noscript><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" width=\"800\" height=\"533\" src=\"https:\/\/www.canitgobad.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/Prepping-for-baking-bread-pudding.jpg.webp\" alt=\"Prepping for baking bread pudding\" class=\"wp-image-3299 lazyload\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.canitgobad.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/Prepping-for-baking-bread-pudding.jpg.webp 800w, https:\/\/www.canitgobad.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/Prepping-for-baking-bread-pudding-500x333.jpg.webp 500w, https:\/\/www.canitgobad.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/Prepping-for-baking-bread-pudding-768x512.jpg.webp 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 760px) calc(100vw - 48px), 720px\" data-pin-media=\"https:\/\/www.canitgobad.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/Prepping-for-baking-bread-pudding.jpg\" id=\"mv-trellis-img-4\" data-trellis-processed=\"1\"><figcaption>Prepping for baking bread pudding<\/figcaption><\/figure><\/div>\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"how-long-does-bread-pudding-last\">How Long Does Bread Pudding Last?<\/h2>\n\n\n<p>Leftover bread pudding lasts for about 4 days in the fridge, but the sooner you eat it, the better the texture.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The 4-day period is the standard recommendation for&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/www.mayoclinic.org\/healthy-lifestyle\/nutrition-and-healthy-eating\/expert-answers\/food-safety\/faq-20058500\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">storing leftover perishable foods<\/a>. However, if you check the recipes online, some recommend up to 5 days of storage, so extending that period by a day is an option.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If you need more time than that, you can always freeze the leftovers. I wrote <a href=\"https:\/\/www.canyoufreezethis.com\/can-you-freeze-bread-pudding\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">a whole article on freezing bread pudding<\/a> on our sister site CanYouFreezeThis.com, in case you&rsquo;re interested.<\/p>\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"how-long-can-bread-pudding-sit-out\">How Long Can Bread Pudding Sit Out?<\/h3>\n\n\n<p>You can leave bread pudding out at room temperature for&nbsp;<a target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/ask.usda.gov\/s\/article\/What-is-the-2-Hour-Rule-with-leaving-food-out\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\"><strong>up to two hours<\/strong><\/a>&nbsp;before it becomes unsafe to eat. And if it sits at a temperature over 90&deg;F (or 32&deg;C), that period shrinks to only an hour.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>That&rsquo;s the 2-hour rule for storing perishable food, and it applies to bread pudding because it&rsquo;s a super moist dessert that requires refrigeration.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>(It also applies to <a href=\"https:\/\/www.canitgobad.net\/how-long-is-leftover-pizza-good-for\/\">leftover pizza<\/a>, in case you were wondering.)<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Consequently, you should always try to cool freshly baked bread pudding as quickly as possible so that you can refrigerate it within two hours of taking it out of the oven.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Of course, it&rsquo;s up to you if you follow this rule to a tee or not.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>For me, I&rsquo;m trying to be reasonable. So if I happen to leave bread pudding on the counter for three hours before I refrigerate it, I assume it&rsquo;s okay. But if I accidentally leave it out overnight, I toss it because it&rsquo;s no longer safe.<\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter size-large\"><noscript><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" width=\"800\" height=\"533\" src=\"https:\/\/www.canitgobad.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/Bread-pudding-closeup.jpg\" alt=\"Bread pudding closeup\" class=\"wp-image-3294\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.canitgobad.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/Bread-pudding-closeup.jpg 800w, https:\/\/www.canitgobad.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/Bread-pudding-closeup-500x333.jpg 500w, https:\/\/www.canitgobad.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/Bread-pudding-closeup-768x512.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 760px) calc(100vw - 48px), 720px\"><\/noscript><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" width=\"800\" height=\"533\" src=\"https:\/\/www.canitgobad.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/Bread-pudding-closeup.jpg.webp\" alt=\"Bread pudding closeup\" class=\"wp-image-3294 lazyload\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.canitgobad.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/Bread-pudding-closeup.jpg.webp 800w, https:\/\/www.canitgobad.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/Bread-pudding-closeup-500x333.jpg.webp 500w, https:\/\/www.canitgobad.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/Bread-pudding-closeup-768x512.jpg.webp 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 760px) calc(100vw - 48px), 720px\" data-pin-media=\"https:\/\/www.canitgobad.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/Bread-pudding-closeup.jpg\" id=\"mv-trellis-img-5\" data-trellis-processed=\"1\"><figcaption>Bread pudding closeup<\/figcaption><\/figure><\/div>\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"how-to-tell-if-bread-pudding-is-bad\">How to Tell if Bread Pudding Is Bad?<\/h2>\n\n\n<p>Discard bread pudding if:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul><li><strong>It&rsquo;s moldy.

If you&rsquo;re one of them and have some leftovers in the fridge, you need a way to reheat them.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Below, I talk about how you reheat bread pudding in the oven and in the microwave. The oven works great for reheating the whole cake or a large part of it, while the microwave is excellent for reheating single pieces.<\/p>\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"oven\">Oven<\/h3>\n\n\n<p>Here&rsquo;s how you reheat bread pudding in the oven:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ol><li><strong>Preheat the oven to 300-350&deg;F (150-180&deg;C).<\/strong>&nbsp;If you&rsquo;re in a hurry, go with the higher temp.<\/li><li><strong>Cover the pudding tightly with aluminum foil.<\/strong>&nbsp;The foil prevents the cake from drying out, so skipping it isn&rsquo;t a good idea. Unless, of course, you don&rsquo;t mind a slightly dry bread pudding. Also, set up the foil so that it&rsquo;s easy to open it up to check if the dessert is warm enough.<\/li><li><strong>Chuck the covered bread pudding in the oven and reheat.<\/strong>&nbsp;Depending on portion size, the dessert needs 12 to 15 minutes (if you go with the higher temperature) up to 20 minutes if you go with the lower temperature.<\/li><\/ol>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"is-style-paragraph-tip\">If you want a crispy top, you can remove the foil for the last 2 to 3 minutes of reheating.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Reheating in the oven is great if you&rsquo;re working with a large piece of bread pudding, but the whole process takes more than 20 minutes (including preheating).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If you don&rsquo;t have that kind of time but want to enjoy warm bread pudding, the microwave is your best bet.<\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter size-large\"><noscript><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" width=\"800\" height=\"533\" src=\"https:\/\/www.canitgobad.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/Bread-pudding-reheating-oven-setup.jpg\" alt=\"Bread pudding reheatingin the oven: setup\" class=\"wp-image-3297\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.canitgobad.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/Bread-pudding-reheating-oven-setup.jpg 800w, https:\/\/www.canitgobad.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/Bread-pudding-reheating-oven-setup-500x333.jpg 500w, https:\/\/www.canitgobad.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/Bread-pudding-reheating-oven-setup-768x512.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 760px) calc(100vw - 48px), 720px\"><\/noscript><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" width=\"800\" height=\"533\" src=\"https:\/\/www.canitgobad.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/Bread-pudding-reheating-oven-setup.jpg.webp\" alt=\"Bread pudding reheatingin the oven: setup\" class=\"wp-image-3297 lazyload\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.canitgobad.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/Bread-pudding-reheating-oven-setup.jpg.webp 800w, https:\/\/www.canitgobad.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/Bread-pudding-reheating-oven-setup-500x333.jpg.webp 500w, https:\/\/www.canitgobad.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/Bread-pudding-reheating-oven-setup-768x512.jpg.webp 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 760px) calc(100vw - 48px), 720px\" data-pin-media=\"https:\/\/www.canitgobad.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/Bread-pudding-reheating-oven-setup.jpg\" id=\"mv-trellis-img-7\" data-trellis-processed=\"1\"><figcaption>Bread pudding reheating in the oven: setup with aluminum foil and a silicone mat<\/figcaption><\/figure><\/div>\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"microwave\">Microwave<\/h3>\n\n\n<p>Here&rsquo;s how you reheat bread pudding in the microwave:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ol><li>Place the bread pudding on a microwave-safe plate.<\/li><li>Microwave the dessert in short 20 to 30-second increments until everything is nice and warm.<\/li><\/ol>\n\n\n\n<p>Now, if you notice that your slices are becoming really dry really fast, try switching from full power to 50% power (or add a glass of water in the microwave, if that&rsquo;s not an option), and double the length of nuking periods.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>A low power setting should&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/www.cooksillustrated.com\/articles\/1843-microwave-cooking-when-to-use-the-power-levels\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener nofollow\">prevent the outer layers of the bread pudding from drying out<\/a>&nbsp;as quickly.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Alternatively, you can microwave the pudding in an inverted bowl or any other microwave-safe equipment that will cover the dessert and keep the steam in.
