- 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
- Cut the crusts off the bread if you like, and tear it into bite-sized pieces.
- Heat the milk in a saucepan with the sugar, cinnamon and nutmeg, stirring until the sugar has dissolved and the milk is steaming.
- 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.
- Take the pan off the heat and leave for 2 minutes so the bread soaks up more of the milk.
- Spoon into a warm bowl and eat hot. It is traditionally eaten on St John's Eve (23 June), Bonfire Night.
