Recipe Ingredients

4 SPAR Freshline plums
2 SPAR Freshline peaches or nectarines
20g SPAR Castor sugar
4 SPAR Freshline white bread
1 large SPAR egg
150ml SPAR Low Fat 2% Milk
1tsp vanilla extract
20g SPAR butter
SPAR Icing sugar, for sprinkling

Recipe Method

Halve, pit and slice the plums and peaches or nectarines. Put them into a saucepan with the castor sugar and 100ml water. Simmer for 8-10 minutes, until just tender.

Meanwhile, cut each slice of bread in half diagonally.

In a large shallow dish, beat together the egg, milk and vanilla extract. Add the pieces of bread and leave them for about 5 minutes, turning them over once so that each side gets a good soaking.

Heat the butter in a large non-stick frying pan. Add the soaked bread and cook it gently for about 1-2 minutes per side, until golden brown.

Share between 4 warm serving plates and spoon the fruit on top. Serve, sprinkled with a little icing sugar.

Hints & Tips

In this recipe you can make the most of bread, brioche or panettone that needs using up to avoid waste. In fact, it helps if the bread is 2-3 days old, as its drier texture soaks up more of the liquid.
