Breakfast,Old Recipe Sweet

All the proof of a pudding is in the eating. William Camden

So, after your house-party the night before, you will be left over with quite some cheese, crackers and crostini. Now most of it can be nicely stored in the fridge and jars. But what about the bread, which is most likely a bit hard now?

The best way to use up leftover bread – bread pudding!

This is the perfect “morning after” breakfast dish, as it’s easy to make, filling and the caffeine shot is also a great cure for the hangover from last night’s party.

This is a cross between a French toast and bread pudding – whatever you would like to call it – there is crusty bread, a light custardy coating, oozing Nutella, and comforting Christmas spices!

Spread a decent amount of Nutella between slices of baguette. Chop them up into smaller bits and place in a bigger baking dish or individual ramekins.

Whisk together an egg, two shots of espresso, some vanilla, all spice, cinnamon, and some sugar. Pour this liquid over the bread and sprinkle some sugar on top. Bake for 10 minutes and serve warm with maple syrup, whipped cream and fresh fruit!

Butter + Jam Bread Pudding

This is my easy-peasy kid’s breakfast morning recipe. It works wonders with all age groups though and I have once added rum-soaked raisins as well, or hints of orange zest, an added lashing of brandy, sometimes allspice, sometimes frozen berries for a red jolt. I’ve never made anything easier, that made a huge impact. When I serve this in the morning, I also pair it with hot chocolate and create a bar with toppings – caramel sauce, chocolate sauce, nuts, sprinkles, chai spices, maple syrup and whipped cream – which work as toppings for both items. And let me tell you, the kids have a jolly good time!

This is a delicious quick meal that can be had at any time of the day and perhaps one of my most favourite. Once I had an olive baguette that I used, and ever since, I’ve been adding olives into the egg batter. The dash of Worcestershire sauce is like a Welsh rarebit recipe – and adds a dash of oomph. Lots of herbs and chilies and then the best part is – lots of cheese on top – until nice golden and crispy! Eat as is, with sides of ketchup or hot sauce, some Dijon works too!

Oatmeal in a mithai flavour format? This is a real killer with the elderly who love sweets, but need a bit of fibre alongwith. I make the oatmeal the old-fashioned way in water with a pinch of salt, and for flavour i char-grill pineapple bits, add kesar, elaichi, badam and pista. If you like, add a dash of malai at the end and stir well! All the richness without the guilt!
