BREAD PUDDING IN THE MICROWAVE

I have no idea where I got this recipe, but it is handwritten in a small book where I saved recipes back in the mid-80s. I haven't made this in ages, but I do recall I used to make it a lot. I think I will make it again today! :-) Ordinary sandwich bread works fine, or use a spiffier bread to make a spiffier pudding. Serve with a vanilla custard sauce, whipped cream, or even ice cream.

I foudn this recipe yesterday and made it stright away. I am posting it so that I don't lose the recipe as it can be made last minute. I used the end of the challa, instead of brioche. Use whatever you have handy. I think next time I might pop it under te grill for that crispy topping you don't get in the microwave.

Tips:

  • Choose the right bread. Stale or day-old bread is the best choice for bread pudding, as it will absorb the custard more easily. You want a bread like Challah, French, or Italian bread.
  • Use a microwave-safe dish. Make sure the dish is large enough to hold all of the ingredients without overflowing.
  • Whisk the custard ingredients together thoroughly. This will help prevent lumps from forming.
  • Pour the custard mixture over the bread cubes. Make sure the bread cubes are evenly coated with the custard.
  • Cover the dish with plastic wrap. This will help the pudding cook evenly.
  • Microwave the pudding on high power for 3-4 minutes. Stir the pudding every minute to prevent it from sticking to the dish.
  • Let the pudding cool for 5 minutes before serving. This will allow the pudding to set.

Conclusion:

Bread pudding is a delicious and easy-to-make dessert that can be enjoyed by people of all ages. It is a great way to use up leftover bread, and it is also a budget-friendly option. With the help of a microwave, you can have a warm and comforting bowl of bread pudding in just a few minutes. So next time you are looking for a quick and easy dessert, give bread pudding a try.
