Pain perdu de pain d'épice

Well, this one got me going! My French is still poor but getting there - until you see this on the menu!

Pain perdu de pain d'épice . What on earth is that? Well it transpires that Pain Perdu is not lost bread but similar to French toast or ‘eggy bread’ – just a little sweeter so ideal as a pudding.

By substituting gingerbread (pain d'épice) for the bread, you get an interesting pudding – now that has to be worth a try! Cinnamon bread could also be used!
