Slow Cooker Dulce de Leche Bread Pudding with Cherries

January 24, 2021 by The Runaway Spoon 1 Comment

I’ve focused this month on recipes for the slow cooker, which is such a perfect way to prepare comforting winter dishes.

A rainbow of lovely winter vegetables nestled around a tender pork roast makes for a pretty impressive dish.

Chocolate Peppermint Molten Cakes

I'm P.C. I think I am like most people. Somewhere in the middle between food snob and food schlub. Just being in the kitchen makes me happy. I live, mostly in my kitchen, in my hometown of Memphis, Tennessee.
