Bread Pudding

There would normally leftover bread at our house. Previously, we would save the bread and feed them to the fishes at Taman Bukit Jalil. Well, the kids are excited first, feeding the fishes. After a while they got bored of it, no longer excited like every time we announce that we would go to Taman Bukit Jalil. Now, I just turn the bread into the most delicious bread pudding. It is a tad too sweet for some but the cinnamon and the raisin balanced the taste. I even made custard sauce to go with it. The taste is just heavenly for a sweet tooth like me.

The recipe (I got it from here):

Ingredients:
6 pieces of bread
3 tbsp of butter
1/2 cup of sugar (original recipe: 3/4 cup of sugar)
2 cups of milk
1 tsp of cinnamon powder
1 tsp of vanilla essence
4 eggs
1/2 cup of raisin (or up to your liking)

Instruction:
1) spread butter on the bread
2) break the bread into small pieces ( I just cut them into half) and arrange them in the baking dish, layered them with raisin. Put aside
3) Beat the 4 egg, add 2 milk, sugar, cinnamon and vanilla essence
4) Pour into the bread. Press with fork to make sure the bread absorb the milk.
5) Bake at 180 C for 45 minutes or until golden brown.

Custard sauce:

he he he This is a cheating custard sauce!! Pour milk into pan, stir at slow fire, add sugar, vanilla essence and custard flour. The amount is "agak-agak"! Stir to make sure it did not cuddle. If it does, strain it using strainer Anyway, it tastes as good!!
