Where to find ingredients

Preparation method
- Prepare the caramel by melting the 2 tablespoons of sugar directly in a large bundt pan.
- Carefully coat the bottom and sides of the pan with the caramel.
- Slice the dinner rolls into pieces about 2 cm thick.
- Arrange the bread slices at the bottom of the prepared pan.
- Blend the milk, eggs, and 2 cups of sugar in a blender until the mixture is smooth.
- Stir in the lemon zest to the liquid mixture.
- Pour the custard mixture evenly over the bread in the pan.
- Bake in a preheated oven using a bain-marie (water bath) for 30 minutes.
- Remove from the oven and allow it to cool down before gently unmolding.
Observations
This recipe turns simple pantry ingredients into a delicious, creamy dessert. The secret lies in letting the bread thoroughly soak up the custard mixture before placing it in the oven.
