Bread Gulab Jamun || Instant bread gulab jamun || how to make gulab jamun using bread

Bread Gulab Jamun || Instant bread gulab jamun is super delicious, soft and melt in mouth dessert. It can be prepared easily with minimum ingredients and in less time.Best dessert recipe for coming Diwali and christmas festivals. I had milk bread readily available at home, you can use whole wheat bread too(i did not tried yet). First time i prepared this when guest came for dinner unexpectedly and nothing was there to prepare other than bread, it came out very delicious and everyone loved it 😍. I did not used baking soda, you can use it to make fluffy. Generally we grind bread pieces into fine powder like breadcrumbs, as i am using milk bread it is very smooth and powdered easily when mashed with fingers so i did not grinded it. Main point to remember here is "Do not add milk at a time, add milk little by little" to get perfect dough. You can also make this bread gulab jamuns by stuffing dry fruits or you can sprinkle grated dry fruits on top of bread gulab jamuns while serving.

As Diwali is coming soon we bloggers decided to post sweet and savory recipes for our #218th week #DiwaliDhamaka theme at Foodie Monday Blog Hop fb group.

** you can also add pinch of baking soda if you want.

** You can also add few drops of rose water in sugar syrup if you want flavoured sugar syrup.

** As i used milk bread, it took only 1 tsp of milk to prepare dough, increase quantity of milk accordingly.

** Do not add milk all at once, add very little milk otherwise dough will become very sticky.
