Snowy Posted November 17, 2007 Share Posted November 17, 2007 Made this for tea and OH said it was the nicest he'd ever tasted! I just made it up as I went along so it's very easy! 8 slices white bread, buttered and cut into half Arrange half in the bottom of an oven proof dish. Cover with small dollops (this is not a precise measurement!) of mincemeat Arrange the rest of the slices on top of the mincement and cover with more small dollops of mincemeat Whisk 3 eggs and add 1 pint of milk and 2 tablespoons sugar. Pour over the bread and mincemeat. Sprinkle with a good pinch of cinnamon and plenty of freshly grated nutmeg. Bake for 1 hour at about 200c (May need to adjust to suit your own oven - mine is a fan oven and this is it's hottest setting.) And it contains eggs - can it go into the omlet cookbook?

Goosey Lucy Posted November 17, 2007 Share Posted November 17, 2007 Mmmmmmm Do you think it could be made with Irish Soda bread? I can't eat yeasty bread and miss out on so many yummy treats... Couldn't face making this for the family and just sit watching them tuck in. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Goosey Lucy Posted November 17, 2007 Share Posted November 17, 2007 I'll give it a go and let you know. But it won't be tomorrow as I think I'm being treated to lunch out as OH is going to be absent for the best part of the next 3 weeks. Sigh.

Lesley Posted November 19, 2007 Share Posted November 19, 2007 I make it with brioche as well - and apricots. I don't see why it wouldn't work with Soda Bread. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Milly Posted November 19, 2007 Share Posted November 19, 2007 My favourite for bread and butter pudding is spread with marmelade and cooked in the normal way. Yummy. And another option is made with pain au chocolat. Not a diet option, obviously. But I had it once from a bread stall where they must have had some left over and used it up in an imaginative way. I haven't made it with brioche because I never have any - it always looks a bit too "long-life" in the supermarket. Is it easy to make?
