Notes
I used butter bread and Amul butter. I think these two factors enhanced the flavor of the pudding (You can use either salted or unsalted butter, it's a personal choice). Though you can serve it cold, we preferred it warm. If leftover is there, refrigerate and microwave the pudding for 15-25 seconds before serving. There are a variety of recipes for bread pudding, so I don't claim any authenticity for this recipe. It's just the way we like it, hope you also like it :) . The above measurements is good to serve 3 persons.
