The Key Stage 1 Team

Today in Olive and Elm class we followed instructions to make a bread and butter pudding. The children had the opportunity to taste their fantastic puddings and really enjoyed them! By the children's request, we have uploaded the instructions that we followed (above) and included the recipe for anyone who wishes to make a bread and butter pudding of their own at home (below). 

Enjoy!
