Blueberry Bread Pudding - Traditional Newfoundland
Hi and welcome to our website!
Thank you for shopping by and I'm thinking this delicious blueberry bread pudding was what you are looking for today. Before you get starting on watching how to make this bread pudding I would like to tell you a little about myself. My name is Bonita and we started Bonita's Kitchen in June of 2014 out of my kitchen in Yellowknife NWT. In October I retired with my husband of 37 years and moved back to our province of Newfoundland and Labrador. We starting this site to help our boys learn to make homemade bread, plus my husband videoed the recipe and we posted it on Youtube.
Traditional and Non-Traditional Newfoundland and Labrador recipes for everyone to enjoy and learn how to cook a delicious meal or dessert from scratch.
Now I spend my time making delicious meals and picking fresh berries in season and visiting local farmers markets to buy freshly grown vegetables. Please take your time and watch our short video tutorial for this delicious homemade blueberry bread pudding. If you don't have fresh blueberries use freshly frozen because they are equally delicious.

I love to cook and bake and I’ve been doing that for over 40 years, I remember when I was only 12 years old and I would cook a meal out of only a few ingredients for my best friends grandparents and they would say what is the name of this recipe and I would laugh and say this and that. 🙂
Oh my! They loved it!
Now! I still cook and bake the same way, making old recipes and with a new spin to make them my own.
