Cut the loaf of bread into 1-inch cubes and place them in a butter-sprayed tin pan.

In a mixing bowl, combine 4 cups of milk and 3 eggs, whisking until well mixed.

Add 1 cup of sugar and a generous amount of cinnamon to the egg and milk mixture.

Pour the entire jar of apple butter into the mixture and stir to combine.

Pour the mixture over the bread cubes, ensuring all pieces are soaked.

Let the bread soak for a couple of hours in the refrigerator.

Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C).

Bake the bread pudding in the oven for about 1 hour until golden brown.

Let the bread pudding cool slightly before making the glaze.

In a mixing bowl, combine 3 oz of softened cream cheese with about 2 cups of powdered sugar.

Drizzle in heavy cream while stirring until the desired glaze consistency is achieved.

Add vanilla extract to the glaze and mix well.

Scoop the bread pudding into a serving dish and drizzle the glaze over the top.
