Budin De Pan Peruano

Budin De Pan Peruano

Budin de Pan is a common and delicious dessert! The recipe that my family uses is similar but not quite exactly like the recipe in this video. Since countries all over Latin America have adopted this dessert there are various spins to it. For example in Nicaragua it is a custom to add a top layer of banana and sugar, whereas in Peru all you add are juicy raisins. Other countries add rum to the Budin or custards.
It has been said that the origins of Budin come from the explorers when they had left over bread and milk they would mix it experimenting with different fruits, this dessert has been dated back all the way to the middle ages!!

I thought it would be important to include the original recipe from my family that my mom has taken the time to write out for me.
