Ingredients:

• 1 package Bear Hug Foods Pumpkin Beer Bread Mix
• 12 oz beer (or club soda for non-alcoholic option)
• 3 cups milk
• 1 cup heavy cream
• 3 large eggs
• 1/2 cup granulated sugar
• 1/4 cup brown sugar
• 1 tsp cinnamon
• 1/2 tsp nutmeg
• 1/2 tsp vanilla extract
• Optional toppings: powdered sugar, whipped cream, caramel sauce

Instructions:

1. Prepare the Pumpkin Beer Bread: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
   In a mixing bowl, combine the Bear Hug Foods Pumpkin Beer Bread Mix with the beer or club soda.
   Pour into a greased loaf pan and bake for 45-50 minutes or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
   Let the bread cool, then cut it into 1-inch cubes.
   
2. Assemble the Bread Pudding: Grease a baking dish (9x13 inches works well) and place the cubed Pumpkin Beer Bread inside.
   In a separate bowl, whisk together the milk, heavy cream, eggs, granulated sugar, brown sugar, cinnamon, nutmeg, and vanilla extract.
   Pour this mixture evenly over the cubed bread in the baking dish. Gently press down with a spatula to ensure all the bread absorbs the custard mixture.
   Let sit for 15-20 minutes to fully soak.
   
3. Bake: Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C).
   Bake the bread pudding for 40-45 minutes, or until the top is golden and the custard is set. It should be slightly puffed up.
   
4. Serve: Let the bread pudding cool slightly, then serve warm. Dust with powdered sugar, and add whipped cream or caramel sauce if desired for an extra touch of sweetness.
