Ingredients:

• 1/2 cup sultanas
• 1/2 cup currants
• 1/3 cup rum
• 8 slices unsalted butter
• 14 large eggs
• 5 tablespoons sugar
• 1/4 cup milk
• 3 1/2 teaspoons vanilla
• 1 loaf of bread

Instructions:

1. Soak Sultanas and Currants:

   • Combine sultanas and currants in a bowl.
   • Pour rum over the dried fruits.
   • Let them soak for 1 hour to absorb the flavors.

2. Preheat Oven:

   • Preheat your oven to 180°C (350°F).

3. Prepare Water Bath:

   • Fill a roasting pan with hot water, enough to come halfway up the side of your 1-quart baking dish.

4. Prepare Baking Dish:

   • Butter the baking dish generously to prevent sticking.

5. Prepare Bread:

   • Butter each slice of bread.
   • Cut the buttered bread into triangles.

6. Layer Bread and Fruits:

   • Arrange the buttered bread triangles and soaked fruits alternately in the prepared baking dish until all are used.

7. Prepare Custard Mixture:

   • In a separate bowl, whisk together eggs and sugar until the mixture becomes pale in color.

8. Heat Milk:

   • Heat the milk until it reaches the boiling point.

9. Combine Ingredients:

   • Gradually whisk the hot milk into the egg and sugar mixture.
   • Add any remaining rum from the soaked fruits and vanilla. Mix well.

10. Pour Custard Over Bread:

    • Pour the custard mixture over the arranged bread and fruits.
    • Allow it to stand for 10 minutes to allow the bread to soak up the custard.

11. Bake:

    • Place the baking dish in the roasting pan in the preheated oven.
    • Bake for 40-45 minutes or until the custard is just set.
    • If the top browns too quickly, cover it with aluminum foil to prevent burning.

12. Serve:

    • Once baked, remove from the oven.
    • Serve warm with a scoop of ice cream or a dollop of cream.

Enjoy this delightful Bread & Butter Pudding, a comforting dessert perfect for any occasion! 🍞🥚🍇
