Comfort puddings

Recipe |Bread and Butter Pudding

Ingredients (serves 4):

4 slices of stale sandwich bread or half a baguette

100 ml milk

100 g sugar

3 eggs

100 g raisins

100 g butter

Method:

1. Butter the bread on both sides and slice into 2 cm cubes.

2. Beat the eggs with the sugar and milk and add the bread cubes. Leave until the custard has soaked into the bread.

3. Butter a large baking pan very generously. Spoon the bread mixture into the pan and scatter the raisins over the top. Use a spoon to press the raisins into the soft bread cubes.

4. Cut little cubes of butter and scatter over the top of the bread mixture.

5. Bake in a 180 C oven for about 20 minutes until the top of the bread pudding is golden brown. Dust with icing sugar before serving, if you wish.
