This is a spectacularly low-effort, high-reward way that could save your stale bread from the trash bin. I always find simple recipes like this one a real meal saviour. There are days for the more complicated recipes to slave over in the kitchen.
Recently, we bought two loaves of wheat bread with lots of sesame, grains and nuts in it. Apparently, the kids did not find such bread to their liking.
With such little time I had, this bread pudding came to mind. I strongly believe that a bread pudding recipe is absolutely an essential kitchen creations that every household must have. Though there are thousands of bread pudding recipes online, I still hang on to this one because it always turned out perfect.
I first came across this recipe from ‘Women’s Weekly’ magazine way back in the 90s. Like many other recipes, mine keep evolving over the years. I can’t recall the original recipe but this one is the closest to it.
When it comes to serving, there’s no way not to get some of that silky smooth custard sauce all over the pudding. Or perhaps with a scoop of vanilla ice-cream on top? Either way it would be decadent.
The custard sauce recipe I’m sharing here can be done in just 15 minutes or less. Just dump everything into a blender before stirring it on the stove. Works like magic! So make this when you need to make dessert a speedy affair.
Gone were the days where we keep cut-out recipes from the magazines. Thank you Women’s Weekly, for those good old days.
