Ingredients
- 10- 12 slices Bread, perferably stale, cut into cubes
- 2 Tbsp Coconut oil / butter, melted
- 1/2 cup Coconut milk You may use any milk of your choice
- 4 Eggs
- 1/3 cup Sugar
- 8 oz / 250 gms Cherries, pitted and halved
- 2 tsp Vanilla extract
- Zest of one lemon
- Almond flakes and Pistachio for topping Optional
Instructions
- Keep 6 ramekins ready. You can even use a small baking pan instead.
- Toss the bread cubes with coconut oil or butter in a small bowl.
- Divide equally amongst the ramekins. Place the cherries on top. Fit them in between the bread cubes too.
- In a separate bowl, whisk together the milk, eggs, sugar, lemon zest, and vanilla extract. Pour over the bread. Press the bread down a bit so it absorbs the custard mixture well.
- Let the mixture stand for at least 30 minutes so most of the custard gets soaked.
- Preheat your oven to 180C.
- Place the ramekins on a baking tray and bake for 25- 30 minutes till the pudding looks golden brown on top and the custard is set.Garnish with toasted almond flakes and pistachios. Serve warm with a scoop of ice cream or cream. It's wonderful as is too. Enjoy!
