FAQs

Do you put egg in bread and butter pudding?

Yes, egg is an ingredient in bread and butter pudding recipes! The bread is often soaked in a mixture made from eggs, milk and sugar. It’s what helps hold everything together. 

Why is my bread and butter pudding watery?

Your bread and butter pudding may be watery if you don’t let it cook for the entire baking time. You may find you’ve also added too much liquid to the mixture, or you haven’t used enough bread to soak it all up. 

Can you make bread and butter pudding in advance and reheat? 

While nothing beats a freshly baked pudding, you can prepare the recipe a day in advance. Prepare it as usual, and then store it in a covered dish overnight. Then, pull it out the next day and bake it according to the time in the recipe. If you’ve already baked it, you can pop it in the microwave, but we recommend only reheating it once.
