A classic belly warming pudding that’s delicious on a cold winter’s evening.
This cheap meal is a great dessert recipe for students too as it’s a great way to use things like bread, milk and eggs that are going off.
You can actually use already stale bread so don’t chuck it away – bung it into this yummy pudding! Also works with stale hot cross buns and even BAGELS.
