I wondered if you could consider old fashioned bread & butter pudding as was made in the war years without any fancy bits. I seem to remember it was just buttered white bread into a buttered dish, covered in egg & milk mix then sprinkled with sultanas, plus a little sprinkled nutmeg (optional) then cooked until golden brown. I cannot remember quantities and cooking heat/time? But my ‘Little Cook’ loves it.
What a lovely idea! We will definitely look into this idea – thank you!
