Traditional Bread & Butter Pudding…


Bread & butter pudding brings back all the memories of being a child, this was a popular dessert when we had stale bread sitting around. If it wasn’t this custard treat it was spiced bread pudding with a thick layer of crispy sugar nibs on top.

You can double the custard recipe in these if you prefer by using 200ml milk and 2 eggs which I often do as I love custard but we all have different tastes so do what you like best.


Some recommended items from our kitchen to make this dish…

  • Silicone whisks in varying sizes, much prefer silicone to metal as it rusts.
  • Double sided dry and liquid measuring spoons for times when you need to measure both liquid and dry ingredients.
  • Non-stick milk pan as I love having the lip to make it easier to pour without spillage.
