Bread halwa is one thing which i wanted to try for very long time. I have never tasted this before, but i am sure it will taste good and similar to wheat halwa. Since it is diwali i decided to give this a go and it turned out to be super yummy.

Similar Recipes,
Wheat Halwa
Custard Powder Halwa
Badam Halwa
Kasi Halwa
Cornflour Halwa
Karachi Halwa
Carrot Halwa
Mango Halwa
Banana Halwa
Jackfruit Halwa
Beetroot Halwa
This recipe is very simple and basic. You just need a handful of ingredients which you might already have on hand. This halwa is so easy and it gives a good amount of halwa with just few slices of bread. So if you make a bigger batch, you can store this in fridge and whenever you want, you can heat it again in microwave or in a small pan and enjoy hot or warm.
Hope you will give this a try and let me know how it turns out for you..


Preparation Time : 5 mins
Cooking Time : 30 mins
