Nutella Brioche Pudding is comfort food at its best! Brioche slices are sandwiched together with Nutella and baked in a delicious vanilla custard – be warned, your family will fight over this!
Our local supermarket has opened up a new bakery which is not doing that well and I have heard many complaints from customers about it. It just isn’t one thing or the other so at the end of the day there are baskets and baskets of reduced baked goods.
Recently I decided that their brioche would make an excellent base for a bread and butter pudding but as half my family don’t like dried fruit I knew I couldn’t make a conventional one.
So it wasn’t much of a leap of the imagination to use Nutella which my daughter seems addicted to (well chocolate in general really – no idea where she gets that from)! You could of course use any chocolate spread!
Having made this Nutella Brioche Pudding three times now it is finally good enough to be released into the big wide world. Tweaks were made each time until I got it just right, not that my family minded all the taste testing! Each time I made this pudding they absolutely loved it.
So if you see some brioche going cheap, don’t worry about it being a bit stale as that is perfect for this pudding. Now every time I see brioche reduced I put a loaf in the freezer and for 50 pence I’ve got the base of a really frugal a delicious dessert!
Even if you can’t find any reduced brioche this pudding is so good I think it’s worth splashing out at full price!

Now this is my kind of cake – not too difficult to make and utterly delicious to eat. I agree with your daughter, Nutella is fabulous!

What a sweet and indulgent dessert. I have to try and stop myself from buying nutella as once it is open, that is it! lol

It’s a shame the new bakery isn’t giving the local population what they want. I wonder if those complaining have passed their varied feedback back to the bakery or not?
Love brioche in bread and butter puddings and nutella/ chocolate variations are always a treat.
