Life is getting back on track slowly. My girl is back from her Uni break till early September and my boy will be going back to the training school in the middle of July. Hopefully, I'll have more time to bake & cook for them. After two long busy weeks running around from hospital and home, here is another refrigerator clearing task for me. Need to clear up the frozen bread ! I was thinking either to transfer them into savory bread casserole or sweet bread pudding. Well, at the end, the sweet one has the most vote !
hehe.... So, decided to go for the sweet bread pudding with frozen cranberries. Its a great choice indeed and its as easy as
1...2...3....
Ingredients :
5 cups of fruity bread, cubed
3 cups full cream milk
1/2 cup brown sugar
115gm butter
1 tspn
nutmeg powder
1 tspn vanilla essence
4 eggs, beaten
1 cup frozen cranberries, roughly chopped
Method :
(1) heat up milk, sugar and butter till sugar & butter just melted then off the heat.
(2) stir in nutmeg powder, vanilla & beaten egg and mix well. Mixture will became slightly thicker flow, not curd.
(3) pour egg mixture to bread and let them sit for 10 minutes.
(4) next, transfer bread mixture into a 9" greased casserole tray and top with cranberries and slightly tuck them into the bread mixture.
(5) then bake at preheated oven 180'C for about 35 minutes with water-bath method or till the top nicely crispy brown.

water~bath baking method : add water into a larger tray then insert the designated baking tray or casserole tray into it for baking.
Its best to serve them warm with an ice cream. I actually have reduced the amount of sugar from 1 cup to only 1/2 cup. It turns out just perfect and the texture is beautiful, not too sticky nor too soggy. Muakkkk ! <3 Loving it. Hope you guys will love it too.
