Good ole Bread and Butter Pudding

Well my last recipe for Banana and Chocolate pudding got me thinking about the original Bread and Butter Pudding that I remember making from my childhood.

So I hunted through my Everyday Cookery recipe book for the traditional Bread and Butter pudding only to realise how simple it really is and what a delicious dessert to make on a cold winters night. Not to mention warm memories of family eating around the dinner table enjoying the pudding.

Ingredients

• 3 eggs
• 600ml milk
• 2 tablespoons sugar
• pinch salt
• 1 teaspoon vanilla
• butter
• nutmeg
• 6-8 slices bread

Method

• Beat eggs well. Add milk, sugar, salt and vanilla. (If you are using a thermomix place all ingredients in bowl sp 4 20 seconds)
• Stir well until sugar has dissolved.
• Cut crusts off bread and butter.
• Cut bread into triangles.
• Pour blended mixture into greased baking dish until bottom is well covered.
• Arrange bread triangles in baking dish on top of blended mixture.
• Pour remaining mixture over bread triangles and leave to soak.
• Sprinkle sultanas over mixture. Sprinkle nutmeg all over dish.
• Place in slow over (approx 140 degrees) for 20 mins then check to see if custard set.
• If not set bake for another 10 mins then check. Continue until custard is set.

Options

• Serve with fresh cream.
• When adding sultanas could also add dried cranberries for a different flavour.

Enjoy.

Recipe Favouroute - Going Banana with Chocolate Pudding

Going Banana with Chocolate Pudding

This week I was tossing up what to cook for a dessert. I was going through my recipe collection....you know the ones you cut out of magazines or print from Facebook posts because you like the look of them.

Well, I have plenty of these that I am yet to test out. Here is one I have tested - Banana Bread Pudding.

It is a slight variation to the good ole' Bread and Butter Pudding. I love how it doesn't take much time to prepare and the ingredients you are likely to have in the cupboard or fridge.

This one is a good recipe on cold winters nights and an added bonus is it still tastes great even though there is no sugar in it.

Ingredients

• 6-7 slices of bread (whatever is about to go stale)
• 4 ripe bananas
• 3 eggs
• 1 cup milk
• 1 teaspoon cinnamon
• 2 teaspoon vanilla extract
• 1 cup chocolate chips

Method

• Cut bread into small cubes.
• Place on baking paper and bake at 175 degrees for 5 min to help dry the bread out.
• In a large mixing bowl, mush the ripe bananas.
• Beat the 3 eggs and add to mixing bowl along with milk, cinnamon and vanilla extract. Stir all together.
• Add dried bread to the mixture, making sure to cover all pieces in the banana mix. Leave to soak for 5 - 10 min.
• Add chocolate chips to the mixture.
• Stir together and spoon mixture into a large muffin tin.
• Bake at 175 degrees for 20 min.
• Once brown on top remove from oven and let cool a little.

Options

When serving, add your favourite ice cream or dollop of thickened cream.

Enjoy.
