Bollo de Pan duro or Bread Pudding Slices




This recipe is from my mom, from when we were growing up. I had it zillions of times growing up because it is made of old bread. It is a good one because it makes you understand that anything, anything can be turned into dessert with a little bit of sugar (and some cinnamon!).As you can see the pictures are not fancy! I mean, yes you can say, it looks bad! like who would eat that, right? 

INGREDIENTS:
-1 old baguette.
-4 eggs.
-1 tablespoon of cinnamon.
-4 tablespoons of butter.
-100 grams grams of sugar.
-15 mg of baking powder.
-1,5 cups of walnuts.
-1 cup of raisins.
-1 cup of milk.

STEPS:
1. Cut the bread in pieces, place in bowl and soak with milk. Let it soften for about 10 or 15 minutes.
2. In the meantime, in another bowl, melt the butter and add to the beaten eggs. Now add the 6 tablespoons of sugar.
3. Now drain the excess of the milk of the bread, as much as you can and discard it.
4. Now add the eggs mix to the bread and mix well. 
5. Add cinnamon, walnuts and raisins.
6. Sprinkle more cinnamon on top if you want.
6. Now place all the mix in tray for about 30 minutes to 200 degrees. It should dry up and the top should dry too.  You might have to play with your oven, don't let burn but don't let it be uncooked....ah you know...oven stuff...

 So good! An inexpensive dessert perfect for meriendas. Thanks mom.
