Pinned It Made It Monday 2-8-16

I have a super yummy dessert and sauce recipe to share with you for this week's PIMIM.

Apple Pecan Bread Pudding with Vanilla Bean Sauce. The pin is HERE. They used cranberries which would have been good, but we still have apples that needed used up, so I decided to go with that instead.




If you don't like bread pudding, make the sauce! It is amazing!!!
