Hot Cross Puddings

Take two slightly stale leftover Hot X Buns

Slice and butter them, and cut each half into twelve ‘cubes’.

Make up ¾pint of liquid in a jug, using one egg, 1tbsp, and milk [and any leftover cream if there is some in the fridge] beat well.

Divide the cubes between four cups/ramekins/whatever.

Pour the liquid over. Sprinkle with some demerara sugar

Bake 20 minutes in moderate oven till puffed up and golden.

Serve with cream, custard, icecream, natural yogurt, etc.

So much better than just putting them in the bin!

  2. You're more inventive than me - I would have cut them in half and toasted them! They definitely wouldn't have gone in the bin though - I have a weakness for hot cross buns, and made another batch last night.
