French Milk Toast Pudding – A Family Afternoon Treat

IH Hob Recommendations

Recommended Power: 800W for low-heat steam-cooking

For the final pan-searing step, you can use maximum power to achieve a beautifully browned color.

 

Ingredients

・ French bread or Shokupan (raw milk toast)

・ Eggs

・ Milk (ratio of 50g milk per egg)

・ Honey or jam, a pinch of sugar

 

Cooking Steps

  1. Whisk the eggs and milk together thoroughly, then add a pinch of salt.
  2. Dip both sides of the bread until evenly coated, then place in a sealed container and refrigerate for 10 minutes.
  3. Before cooking, ensure the bread is fully soaked with the egg mixture but still holds its shape without becoming soggy.
  4. Melt a small amount of butter in a skillet over low heat (high heat will burn the butter easily), then place the soaked bread into the pan.
  5. Cover with a lid to steam-cook, ensuring the toast is heated and cooked completely through to the center.
  6. Once both sides are fully cooked, pan-sear without the lid until golden brown.
  7. Before serving, dust with cinnamon powder or powdered sugar for garnish, and serve with honey to enhance the flavor.
