For a richer flavor, use a combination of butter and olive oil to drizzle over the bread. Day-old bread works best for this recipe, as it soaks up the sauce without becoming mushy. Feel free to experiment with different herbs and spices. A pinch of red pepper flakes or a dash of garlic powder can add a nice kick. To prepare ahead, assemble the pudding and refrigerate it (covered) for up to 24 hours. Add an extra 10-15 minutes to the baking time if baking directly from the refrigerator.
