Bread cake!!!! (gateau de pain)

Bread cake is easy and cheap!
That's what we like....

The basic receipe is just like this:


_Old hard bread (more baguette like, not sandwich bread)
_Milk
_Sugar





Pre-heat the oven at 180 °C. Break the bread into small pieces in a big bowl and add milk to soak the bread. Put enought milk so the mixture becomes moisty but not drowning into the milk. Add a bit of sugar depending how sweet you'd like it.
Put the cake into the oven for 45 minutes keeping the same 180°C all along.
Try out from time to time to poke the cake with a knife, it must not be sticky.

But my favourite thing about this cake is the creativity around it. The picture here is actually a bread cake with fresh banana, raisins and a sugar crust on top of it.
I made it once with fijoas and nuts!

So take the basic receipe as such but let your imagination do the rest! And do not throw away any old bread now, keep it and when you have enought of it, change it into a bread cake!!
