A filling dessert. Nice & warm.

• Ready In: 30 mins
• Serves: 2

Ingredients

• 4  slices  day-old white bread
•  softened butter (optional)
• 2  eggs
• 3⁄4 cup 2% low-fat milk
• 1⁄2 cup  cream
• 2  tablespoons caster sugar
•  extra caster sugar, for sprinkling

Directions

1. Butter the bread on both sides (optional) and then cut into small cubes.
2. Break the eggs into a bowl, add the milk, cream and sugar and whisk until combined and the sugar has dissolved.
3. Place the bread cubes into an ovenproof dish - don't squash them in too tightly.
4. Pour in the mixture and then let it sit for a few minutes to allow the bread to absorb some of the mix.
5. Sprinkle over some extra caster sugar and then cook in a preheated 170°C/325°F oven until golden on top and the egg mixture has just set.
6. Let it cool for a few minutes before serving.
