Delicious Lebanese Bread Pudding To Go

The baby in our house keeps hunting for sweets in every  nook and corner of the house .

So, I tried making Lebanese bread pudding with some changes  to the original recipe.

I did not add the rose syrup and added a little bit of custard powder, whereas the original has only cornflour.

So, here it is:

For making sugar syrup:

Ingredients

Sugar – ½ cup

Water – 1 cup

Lemon juice – 2 Tsp

Method:

Combine together sugar and water and bring to boil. Reduce flame, add lemon juice and heat it for another 5 minutes. .

For making pudding:

Bread rusk – 20-24 (enough to make 2 layers in a pudding dish)

Milk – 500 ml

Corn flour – 4 Tbsp

Condensed milk – 300 ml

Fresh cream – 200 ml

Sugar – ¼ cup (more or less according to taste)

Custard powder – 4 tsp (I used vanilla )

Method:

1- In a dessert dish, make a layer of bread rusk and pour half of the sugar syrup all over.

2- Make another layer of bread rusk and pour the remaining sugar syrup over it.

3- Combine together milk and custard powder (or cornflour); without forming lumps, in a heavy bottom pan. Add condensed milk, fresh cream and sugar.

(Note: You can omit adding sugar If u don’t like it too sweet)

4- Boil this mixture over medium flame, stirring continuously.

5-Cook for another 2 – 3 minutes reduce the flame  it gets thick and remove from flame.

6- Pour this custard mixture evenly over the bread rusk layer. Sprinkle chopped pistachios /nuts /chocochips and let it set it in the refrigerator for about 4 – 5 hours.

Bread pudding is ready to be served!
