In this time where there can be shortage of food supplies, we can not afford for anything to go to waste - which is the norm in our household in any case.
Today while checking out our ref I found 2 left over buns from last week's lunch. They were stale and hard but do not have any molds - I did not want to throw them out so I rummaged through the pantry for any other leftover stuff I could use to make bread pudding.
I found a couple of merengue - I did not know of any recipe for bread pudding using merengue but what the heck, I will just throw it in there too instead of throwing it out... There was also a bit of pink sugar left from a previous baking project... I have some milk, eggs, a packet of raisin and nuts... PERFECT! lets make bread pudding shall we?
Bread Pudding
Ingredients:
- about 2 cups left over bread
- 1 cup milk
- 1 egg
- sugar to taste
- toppings of choice (nuts, dried fruits, chocolate etc.)
How to:
- cut the bread into small pieces- in a bowl whisk egg, milk and sugar
- put the bread pieces in a small square dish
- pour in the milk - making sure all the bread pieces are soaked in the bread, add a little more milk if needed
- sprinkle your choice of toppings
- bake in a preheated oven 200F for 10-15 minutes or until bread has puffed up
- enjoy!
The merengue topping was a surprise! the crunchiness gives an added texture, and the pink sugar gave it a dainty color! perfect hot from the oven with your favorite hot or cold beverage!
