Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 pieces bread slices
- 1.5 cups milk
- 2 large eggs
- 0.25 cups granulated sugar
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 0.5 teaspoons ground cinnamon
- 1 tablespoon butter
- optional toppings (e.g., raisins, chopped nuts, or whipped cream)
Instructions
Tear the bread slices into small chunks and place them in a medium-sized mixing bowl.
In a separate bowl, whisk together the milk, eggs, granulated sugar, vanilla extract, and ground cinnamon until well combined.
Pour the milk mixture over the bread chunks, ensuring all pieces are evenly soaked. Let it sit for 2 minutes to absorb the liquid.
Heat a non-stick skillet over medium heat and melt the butter, ensuring the skillet is coated evenly.
Pour the bread mixture into the skillet, spreading it out in an even layer. Cook for 4-5 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the pudding sets and begins to brown slightly.
Transfer the bread pudding to serving dishes while warm.
Top with optional toppings such as raisins, chopped nuts, or whipped cream, if desired. Serve immediately and enjoy!
