Bread and Butter Pudding Recipe

Moi loves bread and butter pudding so decided to be lazy and blog down this recipe (that sounds easy) so that i'd never have problems finding it.

Taken from the TODAY Paper 24 Aug 2006

Serves 4 to 6

Ingredients
1/2 cup golden raisins
1/4 cup dried cranberries
5 tbsp butter, room temperature
20 slices FairPrice Enriched White Bread, crust
removed
5 Pasar eggs
1/2 cup sugar
1 tsp vanilla
2 cups FairPrice hi-cal milk
1 tsp ground cinnamon sugar

Method
1. Soak raisins and cranberries in hot water until fluffy. Set aside.

2. Spread butter over the slices of bread and slice diagonally in half.

3. To prepare the custard, beat eggs, sugar and vanilla until pale yellow then slowly add milk and whisk until well combined.

4. Layer slices of bread (butter side up) in a baking pan or oven-proof dish, slightly overlapping the slices. Scatter raisins and cranberries in between. Pour half of the custard over.
Continue placing another layer of bread and pour remaining custard on top, followed by the dried frui ts. Sprinkle cinnamon sugar over. Let the dish stand for 30 minutes so that the bread is soaked with the custard mixture.

5. Bake pudding in a pre-heated oven at 180 deg C for 40 minutes or until the top is golden brown.
