Bread and Butter Pudding

Stale bread and eggs, not an appetising dinner, and I dont feel like standing over a stove making French Toast, so bread and butter pudding it is!
My boyfriend has never had bread and butter pudding, I almost wish for his first taste I had made a super fancy one, but the truth is as long as there is butter and sugar in it, he will like it.

Ingredients: to make a small pudding, for 2
2 pieces of bread
4 cubes of butter
4 cubes of sugar
1 egg
75mL milk (I used soy milk)
1 teaspoon of brown sugar
1/2 teaspoon of nutmeg
1/2 teaspoon vanilla essence
1/2 teaspoon cinnamon

Method:
-cut the bread into small cubes
-use a small non-stick baking dish. Fill the dish with the bread cubes
-whisk the egg, milk, vanilla essence and brown sugar until well combined
-place the cubes of butter and sugar among the bread
-sprinkle the cinnamon and brown sugar over the bread
-pour the liquid mix over the bread cubes, pushing the bread down to ensure they all get to soak up some liquid
-bake in a 160 degree C oven for 25min, or until the liquid is set and the bread is golden brown on top.
-sprinkle with icing sugar, serve with cream or ice cream, or whatever you feel like :)

Super easy and super tasty!!

This is such a flexible recipe  you can add chocolate pieces, dried fruit (sultanas), nuts, banana, almost anything you can think of.

My boyfriend is at training at the moment so this will be a nice surprise for him when he gets home. I hope he likes it... fingers crossed!
