Ingredients
  • Bread, leftover or fresh, chopped- 4 to 5 bread slices
  • Granulated or coarse sugar- 2 to 3 tbsp
Making mixture
  • Milk- 2 cups
  • Eggs- 2
  • Brown sugar or white sugar- ½ cup
  • Condensed milk, sweetened- 2 tbsp
  • Vanilla extract- ½ tbsp
  • Ground cinnamon- ½ tsp
  • Raisins or nuts (optional)- ¼ cup raisins/2 tbsp cashew nuts or almonds
Instructions
  1. Preheat oven to 350 F or 175 C.
  2. Chop the bread slices into 1 inch pieces. (I used 2 white bread slices and ½ of the small challah bread which equalled 4 to 5 bread slices)
  3. In a large bowl, beat the eggs using a whisk
  4. Add milk, brown sugar or white sugar, condensed milk, vanilla extract and ground cinnamon, combine well using the whisk.
  5. If you are adding raisins and nuts, add that too.
  6. Take the chopped bread in a greased medium baking pan, pour the milk mixture over the bread, let the bread pieces soak in the mixture. Let stand for 15 minutes.
  7. After 15 minutes, the milk mixture gets absorbed into the bread.
  8. Sprinkle the coarse or granulated sugar over the bread mixture.
  9. Place the pan in the oven and bake for an hour or till the top turns golden in color.
  10. Remove from the oven, let cool down for 15 minutes.
  11. Serve when it is slightly warm or chill it in the refrigerator for an hour.
  12. Enjoy this delicious bread pudding.
