Hot cross pudding.............

What to do with any leftover hot cross buns, even if they're slightly stale.

1 bun per person
1 egg per person
butter
milk
1 tbsp sugar

Slice the buns in half, or in three if thick, and spread with butter; cut each slice in half. Arrange on end in a baking dish. Beat the eggs with an equal volume of milk and add sugar; pour over bun slices and into a hottish oven until the custard is set and the bun tops crispy. Serve warm with custard or cream.

  1. Have tried this before, absolutely delicious. To make even more special add a glug of brandy to the milk/egg/sugar mix.
