What Is Bread And Butter Pudding?

Bread and butter pudding is a quintessentially British dessert that’s been a family favourite for generations. Plus, it’s a great way to use up any leftover bread before it goes off!

Made by layering slices of buttered, milk and cream-soaked bread in a baking dish and drizzling it with Lyle’s Golden Syrup – our special ingredient – this classic bread and butter pudding recipe is sure to tempt your taste buds.

How To Make Classic Bread And Butter Pudding

Step 1

Combine the milk, cream, vanilla and orange zest in a small non-stick pan. Simmer for 2-3 minutes, then turn off the heat, cover and leave to cool while those delicious flavours infuse.

Step 2

Butter up the bread on both sides, arranging half the slices in a 1.75l (3pt) capacity baking dish. Be generous - overlap the slices.

Step 3

Beat the eggs and the Lyle's Golden Syrup together in a jug and then add the milk mixture. Get rid of the orange, then pour half the milk mixture over the bread - arrange a second layer of bread on top then pour over the remainder of the milk. Leave to sit for 15 minutes while you preheat the oven to 180°C/160° Fan, 350°F, Gas 4.

Step 4

Pop the pudding dish in the roasting tin, fill halfway with hot water and bake on the middle shelf of your oven for 25-30 minutes.

Step 5

When it's golden brown and slightly caramelised at the edges, it's ready to enjoy. Remove and serve with custard or cream – either way, you can't go wrong!
