Indulge in the ultimate comfort food: classic bread and butter pudding.
Ingredients:
  • 25g sultanas
  • 20.00 ml brandy
  • 50g unsalted butter, softened, plus extra to grease
  • 12 slices fresh white bread, crusts removed, buttered
  • 300ml single cream
  • 300ml thick cream
  • 1 vanilla bean, split
  • 8 egg yolks
  • 175g caster sugar
  • 52.80 gm marmalade, warmed
  • Extra thick cream, to serve
Instructions:
  • Mix the sultanas and brandy in a bowl and let them sit for 30 minutes to enhance the flavors.
  • Grease six 14cm dishes or 1 round 1.75-litre ovenproof dish by brushing with a dab of butter.
  • Cut the bread into quarters, then arrange in dishes, sprinkling sultanas between the slices.
  • In a saucepan, combine the creams with the vanilla bean seeds and the bean. Bring to a boil, then let it sit for 30 minutes to infuse.
  • Combine egg yolks and sugar in a bowl, whisk until light. Remove vanilla bean from cream, pour over egg mixture, and stir well. Pour mixture over bread until dishes are full. Rest for at least 1 hour at room temperature. Refrigerate if over 1 hour (this is crucial for a creamy pudding, not a thick one). Bring to room temperature before cooking if refrigerated.
  • Preheat your oven to 180°C.
  • Place the dishes in a roasting pan and surround them with boiling water reaching halfway up the sides. Bake in the oven for 20 minutes (or 35 minutes for a large pudding).
  • Take out of the pan and generously brush with the warmed marmalade. Enjoy with a dollop of thick cream.
