For this dish, we will be making a savory bread pudding with a sweet and tangy twist. This dish is great for using up leftover bread and will surely impress your dinner guests with its unexpected combination of flavors. Let’s dive right in!

Ingredients:

• stale ciabatta bread (cubed) – 400g
• blue cheese (crumbled) – 150g
• dried cranberries – 100g
• fresh rosemary (chopped) – 2 tbsp
• eggs – 4
• milk – 500ml
• salt and pepper to taste

Kitchen Tools:

• mixing bowl
• whisk
• oven-safe baking dish
• knife

Start by preheating your oven to 180°C. In a large mixing bowl, combine the cubed stale ciabatta bread, crumbled blue cheese, dried cranberries, and chopped fresh rosemary. In a separate bowl, whisk together the eggs, milk, salt, and pepper until well combined.

Pour the egg mixture over the bread and cheese mixture, stirring gently to ensure everything is coated evenly. Let it sit for about 10 minutes to allow the bread to soak up the liquid.

Transfer the mixture to an oven-safe baking dish and bake for 45-50 minutes, or until the top is golden brown and the pudding is set.

Once done, remove from the oven and let it cool slightly before serving. This savory bread pudding is best enjoyed warm and is perfect for a comforting dinner on a cold night.
