  • Preparation: 5 min
  • Cooking: 10 min
  • Makes: 1 serving (323 g)
  • Difficulty: Easy
  • Diets: Vegetarian
  • Contains: dairy, gluten

Ingredients

  • 60 g White bread
  • 250 g Milk, whole
  • 12 g Sugar
  • 0.3 g Cinnamon, ground
  • 0.2 g Nutmeg, ground

Method

  1. Cut the crusts off the bread if you like, and tear it into bite-sized pieces.
  2. Heat the milk in a saucepan with the sugar, cinnamon and nutmeg, stirring until the sugar has dissolved and the milk is steaming.
  3. Add the bread and let it simmer very gently for 2-3 minutes, stirring once or twice, until soft and swollen; don't let the milk boil over.
  4. Take the pan off the heat and leave for 2 minutes so the bread soaks up more of the milk.
  5. Spoon into a warm bowl and eat hot. It is traditionally eaten on St John's Eve (23 June), Bonfire Night.
