How to Make Arabian Bread Pudding
Step 1: Prepare the Bread layer
Cut the edges of the bread slices .
Step 2: Make the custard milk mixture
In a bowl, mix custard powder with ¼ cup milk without lumps.
Heat the remaining milk in a saucepan. Add sugar and stir well. Once the milk becomes warm, pour in the custard mixture slowly while stirring continuously.
Cook on low flame 3-4 minutes.
Pour the warm custard evenly over the toasted bread pieces. Let the bread absorb the creamy milk mixture for 10–15 minutes.
Step 3: Prepare the Whipped Cream
In a chilled bowl, beat whipping cream with powdered sugar until soft peaks form.
Spread or pipe the whipped cream generously over the cooled custard layer.
