  • 17.5 oz (500 g) stale white bread
  • 2 apples
  • 2 peaches
  • 4 tbsp (60 g) refined sugar

  • 2 cups (½ L) milk
  • 4 eggs
  • 4 tsp (20 ml) rum or a few drops of rum aroma
  • 1 tbsp butter
Make it lactose-friendly
  • 2 cups (½ L) milk → lactose-free milk, oat milk, or almond milk
  • 1 tbsp butter → plant butter, ghee (mostly lactose-free), or olive oil

Swaps are suggestions, not medical advice. Check labels if lactose is a serious issue for you.

Steps

  1. Wash the apples and peaches, and peel them if desired. Cut them into slices approximately ¼ inch (1 cm) thick.
  2. Cut the bread into slices about the same size as the fruit.
  3. Pour the milk into a bowl and add the eggs. Mix well. Then take the slices of bread and let them soak in the mixture for a few seconds. This will take longer if you use stale rather than fresh bread.
  4. Mix the refined sugar and the cinnamon in a cup or a small bowl.
  5. Grease an ovenproof dish, then layer the slices, bread, and fruit alternately in the dish. Sprinkle a bit of the sugar-cinnamon mixture on top of every layer. For the best result, start and end with a layer of bread. You can decide whether you want an apple and a peach layer or whether you would like to mix the different kinds of fruit.
  6. Scatter a few flakes of butter on top, and put the dish into the oven for 45 minutes at 180°C/350°F.
  7. Enjoy!
