There’s something so warm and comforting about an old fashioned bread & butter pudding. It’s also a wonderful way to use up leftover breads, especially challah!
This recipe can easily be doubled!
Ingredients
4 Cups (8 slices) cubed white bread
1/2 Cup raisins (optional)
2 Cups milk
1/4 Cup butter
1/2 Cup sugar
2 Eggs, slightly beaten
1 tablespoon vanilla
Jam of choice (I use apricot jam)
Heat oven to 350°F.
Slice bread, remove any hard crusts, and spread with butter and jam.
Place in a prepared casserole dish which has been sprayed with non stick spray.
Add raisins if using.
Combine milk, eggs, sugar & vanilla.
Pour this milk mixture over bread; and allow to stand for 20 minutes.
Bake for 40 to 50 minutes or until set in the center.
Serve warm with custard or vanilla ice cream!
I have made this recipe Parev (non dairy) very successfully by replacing the milk with non dairy whipping cream, and the butter with dairy free or vegan marg.
Enjoy!
