I was recently watching the Hairy bakers bakation, and as always, I want to cook what they are cooking. They were in Slovakia and made a bread and butter pudding with fruit on the top- a traditional dish over there. I love bread and butter pudding and had a big craving after watching this so thought I would give it a go.
I used apples as my fruit, but you could use anything really; pears, plums, anything that’s going off either as the fermenting sugars will cook really well.
Ingredients
25g / 1oz butter
50g / 2oz sultanas
2 tsp cinnamon powder
350ml / 12 fl oz milk
50ml / 2 fl oz double cream
2 eggs
25g / 1oz butter
