One of my aunt's (whose not much of a cook) has mentioned wanting bread pudding on numerous occasions. So I finally took the hint and searched for a recipe. I came across one, which I spontaneously adapted last minute, and is very straight forward & cheap, with just 4 ingredients (at a push, 5 if you count the sugar sprinkled at the end). The result... Excellent!
This is how it was made...
