Your bread cake is done, you can eat it now, or if you like, do what I did… I ate a piece right then… stored the rest in the fridge and the next morning I took the cake out dipped it in a mix of egg whites and almond milk with a pinch of cinnamon and fried it on the pan to make French Toast. Best part of waking up :D Enjoy!!
