My Bread and Butter Pudding Recipe

[source]

I don't like raisins or sultanas so I created a modified version of bread and butter pudding that suited my tastes. I make it at least once a week. I love it. I also never measure when I cook so the measurements are just approximations. I substituted the cream in other recipes for yoghurt. I'd finished eating the pudding before I realised I hadn't taken pictures... O_o I'll borrow some from the web... oh well....

Ingredients
8 slices of bread
Butter
4 eggs
A pint of milk
A cup of caster sugar (adjust for taste)
125g pot of fruit flavoured yoghurt
2 tsp Cinnamon
1 tsp Vanilla Essence

1. Preheat oven to 190C. Grease a 1.2 litre baking pan with butter. 
2. Butter each slice of bread on one side then cut each slice into two diagonally or vertically. 
3. In a mixing bowl, whisk the eggs then add the yoghurt, milk and sugar. Lastly, add the cinnamon and vanilla essence. Whisk till well mixed. 
4. Make a layer on the bottom of the pan with half of the bread, butter side down. Pour on some of the milk mixture. Layer the rest of the bread on top, butter side down and pour the rest of the milk mixture over it. Let the bread absorb the mixture for a few minutes. 
5. Pop the pan in the oven and bake for about 30 minutes or until a toothpick inserted into the middle of the pan comes out clean. 

Serve warm with custard or icecream.

Tips:
Use whatever bread you like, but I prefer unsliced agege bread. You can get it at most African stores in the States and the UK. You can also use banana bread, brioche, french bread, croissants etc. I even tried it with plain scones once. Yum!! For a savoury version, omit the sugar and fruit yoghurt and add spices and seasoning  and some veg to the mix. Another thing to try is jam. Butter all the slices, but put jam on the other side of half the slices. Make sure those slices go on the bottom of the pan and the jam side is facing up.

Hope you guys try this and like it. :)

Off to go get another tattoo!!
