How to Make Hot Dog Bun Pudding Custard

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Lightly grease a 8x8 inch baking pan.
  2. Cut 6 hot dog buns into 1-inch pieces. Arrange them cut-side up in the prepared pan.
  3. Melt 1/4 cup (57g) unsalted butter. Pour evenly over the bun pieces.
  4. In a large bowl, whisk together 4 large eggs, 1 (12 ounce) can evaporated milk, 1 cup (240ml) whole milk, 1/2 cup (100g) granulated sugar, 1 teaspoon vanilla extract, and a pinch of salt.
  5. Pour the custard mixture evenly over the buttered buns, ensuring all pieces are moistened.
  6. Bake for 30-45 minutes, or until the custard is set and lightly golden brown. The center should be just slightly jiggly.
  7. Let cool slightly before serving. Enjoy warm or at room temperature.
