Bread and Butter Pudding
Servings: 8 servings
Calories: 507kcal
Ingredients
- 1 loaf bread slightly stale
- 4 tablespoon butter softened
- ½ cup raisins or sultanas
- 1 cup milk
- 1 cup heavy cream
- 3 large eggs
- ½ cup granulated sugar plus extra for sprinkling on top
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- ⅛ teaspoon nutmeg
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Lightly grease a 9x13-inch baking dish.
- Slice the loaf into 1-inch pieces, then cut each slice diagonally into triangles. Butter one side of each triangle.
- Arrange the bread triangles in the prepared dish, buttered side up. Sprinkle raisins between the layers as you go.
- In a large bowl, whisk together the milk, heavy cream, eggs, sugar, vanilla extract, cinnamon, and nutmeg until well combined.
- Slowly pour the custard mixture over the bread, making sure all pieces are evenly coated. Use the back of a spoon to gently press down the top layer, or tilt the dish so the liquid seeps into all the bread.
- Let it rest for about 5 minutes at room temperature to allow the liquid to fully soak in.
- Sprinkle 1 tablespoon of granulated sugar over the top.
- Bake for 40-45 minutes, or until the custard is set and the top is golden brown.
- Slice into 8 portions and serve warm. Refrigerate any leftovers, covered tightly.
