This recipe serves three people, making 1 large and 2 small trees for each. I whizz the crusts up in the food mixer to make breadcrumbs and freeze them so nothing goes to waste.

You can make savoury eggy bread by adding a little salt, yeast extract or chilli instead of the cinnamon and sugar. Serve with fresh fruit if you make them sweet or with veggie sausages and mushrooms if you go for savoury – or just eat them on their own and enjoy!
