Bread And Butter Custard Recipes

Steps:

• To start the custard base, bring the milk and cream just to a boil in a saucepan. Cut the vanilla pod in half, scrape out the seeds and add to the pan with the zest. Whisk the eggs with the sugar until pale. Add the milk and cream and remove the vanilla.
• Preheat the oven to 325 degrees F (160 degrees C/Gas 3).
• Dip each slice of panettone into the custard and pile into a buttered baking dish. Pour the remaining custard slowly over the bread, place the dish in a roasting pan and fill halfway with hot water. Sprinkle with the icing sugar and bake for about 45 minutes. When cooked, it will have a slight crust on top, but will still be slightly wobbly inside.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 300 degrees F (150 degrees C).
• Blend half-and-half, eggs, sugar, vanilla extract, and salt in a blender until smooth. Arrange bread in a 9x13-inch baking dish; sprinkle with raisins and cinnamon. Pour egg mixture over bread.
• Place baking dish in a large roasting pan; fill roasting pan with boiling water halfway up the sides of the baking dish.
• Bake in preheated oven until set, about 1 1/2 hours. Serve warm or cold.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350°F.
• Lightly butter an ovenproof dish. Butter the bread slices and cut into small pieces.
• Lay the buttered bread in several layers in the prepared dish.
• In a large bowl, whisk together the evaporated milk and the fresh milk, mixed spice, sugar and eggs. Pour this mixture over the bread and butter. Sprinkle over the raisins and let stand for 30 minutes.
• Grate a little nutmeg over the top and bake for 30-40 minutes until the custard is just set and golden. Serve sprinkled with confectioner's sugar.

Steps:

• Thinly butter bread. Cut each slice into four squares. Arrange half of the bread in the buttom of a buttered, 1-quart casserole dish. Sprinkle raisins over bread, then cover with remaining bread.
• Beat eggs with milk, cream, sugar, salt and vanilla. Pour it over the casserole things. Let stand 30 minutes to let mixture soak into bread.
• Preheat oven to 350. Sprinkle nutmeg over dessert. When oven is ready, bake 40 minutes, or until golden brown. Serve custard warm, either by itself or with canned fruit.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Grease a 9-inch round pie dish or cake pan.
• Butter the bread on both sides and cut into triangles. Arrange a single layer of buttered bread in the bottom of the greased pan, slightly overlapping the triangles. Sprinkle with 1/2 of the sugar and all of the currants. Arrange the remaining bread on top, then sprinkle with remaining sugar.
• Beat milk, eggs, and nutmeg together. Pour over the bread and press down firmly to compress the pudding and help the bread absorb the milk mixture.
• Bake in the preheated oven until golden brown and set, about 30 minutes.
