Tips & Variations

• Use room temperature eggs and milk to help the batter mix more evenly and rise better.
• For extra flavor, add 1/2 teaspoon of vanilla extract to the batter.
• Substitute the butterscotch pudding mix with vanilla or chocolate pudding mix for a different twist.
• If you prefer a denser bread, reduce baking powder to 1/2 teaspoon.

Storage

Store the butterscotch pudding bread in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days. For longer storage, wrap tightly and freeze for up to 2 months. Thaw at room temperature and warm slightly in the microwave or oven before serving to refresh its softness.

FAQs

Can I use a different type of pudding mix?

Yes, you can substitute the butterscotch pudding mix with vanilla, chocolate, or even butterscotch-flavored instant pudding to suit your tastes.

What if I don’t have icing sugar for the topping?

The icing sugar topping is optional. The bread tastes great on its own, but you can dust it with powdered sugar or drizzle a simple glaze made from powdered sugar and milk if you like.

Instructions
