Bread & Butter Pudding

The ultimate refuge for stale bread: whether it’s a leftover loaf, half picked-at dinner rolls, or the last few slices in the pantry, transform them into this classic comfort dish to save food and eat well.

Directions

  1. Preheat oven to 170°C

  2. Lightly grease a large ovenproof dish with olive oil.

  3. Brush the bread with melted butter on one side, then cut into triangles and arrange a layer of bread on the dish, butter side up. Sprinkle with cinnamon and repeat until all the bread is used up.

  4. To make the custard, heat the milk gently in a pan over low heat. Be careful not to boil or it may curdle. Add the vanilla essence. Place the eggs and honey in a small bowl and whisk slightly, then pour over the milk. Continue to stir until the mixture is to the desired consistency, then strain.

  5. Pour the custard over the bread and leave to soak for at least 20 mins, then sprinkle with extra cinnamon and nutmeg if desired.

  6. Bake for 30—40 mins until golden. Serve immediately.
