3. Gently fold in the cubed glazed donuts, ensuring each piece is lovingly coated in the custard mixture. Let this sit for 10 minutes, allowing the donuts to absorb the liquid like a sponge.
4. Transfer the mixture to the prepared baking dish, spreading it evenly. Bake for 45 minutes, or until the top is golden brown and the center is set but still slightly jiggly—like your confidence after trying this recipe.
5. Remove from the oven and let it cool for 5 minutes before serving. This brief rest allows the pudding to set further, making it easier to slice.

Brimming with the nostalgic flavors of your favorite glazed donuts, this bread pudding is irresistibly moist with a slightly crispy top. Serve it warm with a drizzle of extra glaze or a scoop of vanilla ice cream for an over-the-top treat that’ll have everyone asking for seconds.
