Method

Restated from the original video

  1. 1

    Heat the oven to 180 °C (350 °F) and butter a baking dish of about 1.5 l (1 1/2 quarts).

  2. 2

    Cut the crusts off the bread, spread one side of each slice with butter and cut each slice into 2 triangles.

  3. 3

    Lay half the triangles in the dish, buttered side up and overlapping, and scatter over half the sultanas.

  4. 4

    Add the remaining bread in the same way and finish with the rest of the sultanas.

  5. 5

    Beat the eggs in a jug, then whisk in the milk, sugar and vanilla.

  6. 6

    Pour the custard evenly over the bread and press the slices down so they soak it up.

  7. 7

    Leave to stand for 10 min, then sprinkle the nutmeg over the top.

  8. 8

    Bake until puffed, golden on top and just set in the middle, 35-40 min.

  9. 9

    Rest for 5 min before serving warm.
