Did you know that 920,000bananasand 20,000,000 slices of bread are chucked awayeach dayin the UK alone!
But this delicious Bread & Butter Pudding uses up those old bananas lying at the bottom of your fruit bowl.
And because stale bread works better, it uses up loaves that would otherwise be wasted.
Avoiding food waste has never been tastier!
Their campaign is all about “Eat What You Buy” they have some brilliant tips and tricks on their Spoiled Rotten page to help you reduce your food waste.
The great thing about this free-from pud? You can chuck in whatever you fancy.
So if you have nuts, dried fruit or even chocolate in the cupboards, they can join the party!
If you’ve got kids, get them involved in the blending. It’s always fun to watch the soaked cashews, dairy-free milk, cinnamon and bananas whizz up.
And the next step is super simple: simply butter both sides of the bread. Don’t be shy to slather – remember this is comfort food!

Now to chuck in the extras. This is your opportunity to go mad. Cranberries and chocolate chunks add a lovely sweet and sharp hit.
