Cheesy Bread Pudding

This is a very basic, yet satisfying way of having bread pudding. It is a little indulgent I have to admit, but not overly so if you serve it with a big salad on the side. I hope you enjoy!

• Ready In: 30 mins
• Serves: 2-4

Ingredients

• 1  teaspoon butter, soft
• 4  slices  whole wheat bread, make sure to use large slices (original says toast, but I used whole spelt soda bread)
