This is one of my favorite desserts to make when I want something that feels indulgent but doesn't require hours in the kitchen. Dulce de leche bread and butter pudding combines that classic comfort of a traditional pudding with the rich, caramel flavors of dulce de leche for something truly special. The beauty of this recipe is that it comes together in just an hour from start to finish, making it perfect for weeknight dinners or unexpected guests. Almonds throughout the pudding provide wonderful texture plus heart healthy fats and protein, while the combination of dried fruit, pecans, and dark chocolate adds layers of flavor that make everyone think you've spent all day cooking. Trust me, once you taste this warm from the oven, you'll find yourself making it again and again.
