How to Make Microwave Bread And Butter Pudding

  1. Preheat your microwave.
  2. In a microwave-safe bowl, combine 2 cups cubed bread (challah or brioche work well), 1/2 cup milk, 1/4 cup granulated sugar, 1 large egg, 1 teaspoon vanilla extract, and a pinch of ground cinnamon.
  3. Mix gently to ensure the bread is evenly coated with the custard mixture.
  4. Microwave on high for 2-3 minutes. Stir gently.
  5. Continue microwaving in 1-minute intervals, stirring after each, until the pudding is cooked through and set (about 7-8 minutes total). The exact time may vary depending on your microwave.
  6. Let stand for 2-3 minutes before serving. Optional: Broil for 1-2 minutes for a crispier top.
