Tex's Ez British Bread & Butter Pudding 🍞🍮🇬🇧 instructions

1. Butter your bread and remove the crusts if you like..
2. Slice bread diagonally if it will help your layering in the pie dish.
3. Begin stacking in an oven proof dish, buttered side up. Cut some pieces to get a good fit if necessary A square or rectangular dish is easier to stack in.
4. When you have one layer in place, scatter on a small helping of the dried fruit.
5. Repeat until your dish is full.
6. Simmer your custard for 4-5 minutes, stirring in a little milk until the custard thins to a consistency that will soak easily in to the bread....
7. ...pour in enough custard so that it pools a little. Allow to sink in and soak the bread for about 30 minutes..
8. Check occasionally to see if the dish needs topping up with custard as it soaks in to the bread.
9. Remove any excess custard from the top with a spoon, or top up with extra if necessary. Allow to sit again, preferably for at least another 30 minutes.
10. Preheat the oven to gas mark 4/175°C (375°F).
11. Scatter with demerara sugar, some cinnamon if using, and even some citrus peel if you fancy a little extra tang, then pop in the oven.
12. Bake for 35-40 minutes or until it turns golden brown with a nice crust, and the filling has puffed up a little.
13. Serve hot, with jam and any left over custard....
14. By the way, don't forget to put your butter away... 😸.
