Strawberry Mug Bread Pudding

Bread pudding ... breakfast or dessert ?

Ingredients for 1 mug:

1 cup cubed bread
1 egg
1/3 cup milk
1/4 tsp vanilla
2 tsps maple syrup
2 tbsps chopped or sliced strawberries

You can use a slice or two of any bread, but I like to keep crusts and heels that for some reason we don't like to eat, saving them in the freezer until there's enough for a bread pudding.

Whisk the egg, milk, vanilla and maple syrup together. Stir cubed bread into the mix and fold in the strawberries.

Spray or butter a good sized mug.  These drinking jars were a little big, but better than too small and having bread pudding all over your microwave!

Spoon the mixture into the mug. You can layer some strawberries in too if you like.

Microwave uncovered on high for 1 minute. Check for doneness, then continue in 10 second bursts until done.

For breakfast we had them topped with yogurt but if this is a dessert definitely go for ice cream... you can never go wrong with ice cream!
