Bread and butter pudding is a traditional type of British bread pudding made with buttered bread raisins and egg custard. The recipe transforms milk cream and egg soaked bread into a light custard-like pudding in just 40 minutes in the oven. You do need to let it sit for half an hour for the custard to soak up so make sure you give yourself some extra time.

There are many recipes for bread pudding. While they are all slightly different the egg custard and cinnamon-nutmeg spices are common. Bread and butter pudding is popular in the United Kingdom and you will find recipes in the United States that are nearly identical. The main differences are that British recipes butter the bread before soaking it in the custard include sultanas or raisins and typically do not cover the dessert with a sweet sauce when serving. Many other bread pudding recipes use cubes of bread instead of larger pieces. However none of these elements are unique to the British bread and butter pudding.
Believe it or not stale white bread works best. This delicious dessert is a great way to use up leftover white bread making it a resourceful and very economical dish to cook. Remove the crust if you like or leave it on. It also works for other types of bread such as wheat bread. If you like raisins try raisin bread for an extra dose of raisins.
