Method
- Preheat oven to 200°C (400°F, gas mark 6). Cut each slice of bread into triangles, butter one side and arrange, buttered-side up, in a buttered ovenproof dish.
- Gently heat custard with cream until just warm. Pour over the bread, pressing down slightly to make sure the custard is absorbed.
- Sprinkle with sugar and bake for 30-40 mins, until the top is golden but the middle is soft.
