The ultimate comfort food – and so easy to make.

Preparation time:
15 minutes
Cooking time:
35 minutes to 45 minutes
Total time:
45 minutes to 55 minutes 55 minutes
Serves:
 6

Ingredients

  • 25g slightly salted butter, softened, plus extra for greasing
  • 8 slices Waitrose Farmhouse Batch Crusty White Loaf, crusts left on
  • 75g sultanas
  • 3 eggs
  • 500ml semi-skimmed milk
  • 25g golden caster sugar
  • 1 tsp vanilla essence
  • Freshly grated nutmeg
  • 25g demerara sugar

Method

  1. Preheat the oven to 180°C, gas mark 4. Lightly grease a 1.5-litre ovenproof dish. Butter the bread. Cut each slice into quarters, to form squares, then layer the pieces in the prepared dish, scattering the sultanas between the layers.
  2. Lightly beat the eggs in a jug with the milk, sugar and vanilla. Pour over the bread and grate nutmeg over the top. Bake for 35-40 minutes until the top is golden and the custard set.
  3. Sprinkle with the demerara sugar and serve warm, drizzled with single cream or custard.

This is a great recipe for using leftover bread and storecupboard ingredients. It's quick to prepare, and works well with with fruit and cinnamon breads, though you may need to thin the slices if it's a pre-cut loaf, and reduce the granulated sugar and fruit ingredients. It looks attractive when cooked - good enough to serve to dinner guests, and is very nice served with custard, instead of cream.
