Minimally Invasive

You’ll see that this recipe leaves a bit to the imagination. It might take a few tries to get the proportions right, but once you do, you’ll be rewarded with a lovely, creamy, very bread-y pudding.

10-15 slices stale bread
1 small can Pet Milk (evaporated — NOT condensed — milk)
milk
5-6 egg yolks (reserve whites for meringue)
1 1/2 cups sugar
1 teaspoon vanilla

Preheat oven to 350 degrees.

Mix ingredients together, adding milk as needed. Bake in large rectangular cake pan for approximately one hour. Top with meringue (recipe follows) and bake until brown.
