Bread and butter pudding recipe
Making this easy-to-follow bread and butter pudding recipe is a great way to bring the whole family together! The buttered bread and sprinkling of light brown sugar make the top golden brown and super crisp. We like serving it with a scoop of vanilla ice cream and a handful of fresh berries.
How to make the bread and butter pudding
For this bread and butter pudding recipe, we use the British approach, which consists of spreading butter over the bread slices before arranging them in the baking dish. Then we prepare the custard with milk, heaving whipping cream, eggs, vanilla, and sugar. After sprinkling some raisins over the bread, we pour the custard over the bread slices and bake the bread and butter pudding in the oven at 350ºF (180ºC) for 25 minutes.
