    Marmalade bread and butter pudding

    MARMALADE BREAD AND BUTTER PUDDING
    There’s nothing quite as comforting as a warm marmalade bread and butter pudding fresh from the oven, and this version brings a bright citrus twist to the classic. Raisin bread, plump tea-soaked fruit and a rich vanilla custard come together beneath a golden, crisp top, while the marmalade adds just the right balance of sweetness and gentle bitterness. Serve it warm with custard, cream or a scoop of vanilla ice cream for the ultimate cosy dessert.

    Serves: Serves 6
    Total Time: 1 hour 15 minutes

    Ingredients

    • 80g sultanas and/or raisins
    • 125ml freshly brewed Rooibos tea
    • 30ml sherry or orange juice
    • 8–10 thick slices raisin bread or white bread
    • 50g butter at room temperature
    • 80g marmalade
    • 3 eggs
    • 2 egg yolks
    • 60ml castor sugar
    • 250ml cream
    • 500ml milk
    • 5ml vanilla extract
    • SERVE
    • Icing sugar, for dusting (optional)
    • Cream, custard or ice cream

    Instructions

    1

    Preheat the oven to 180°C. Grease a 5cm-deep baking dish or six ramekins.

    2

    Place the sultanas and/or raisins in a small, heatproof bowl and cover with the hot Rooibos tea and sherry or orange juice. Set aside for 15 minutes.

    3

    Butter both sides of each slice of bread.

    4

    Sandwich the slices together with a layer of marmalade and cut each in half diagonally, then again into quarters.

    5

    Arrange half the bread triangles in rows in the prepared dish or dishes.

    6

    Drain the soaked fruits and sprinkle half over the top. Repeat with the remaining bread and fruit.

    7

    Whisk the rest of the ingredients together in a mixing bowl and pour over the bread mixture. Allow to stand for 15 minutes.

    8

    Place the dish or ramekins on a baking sheet and bake for about 30–35 minutes, for a large pudding, or about 20–25 minutes for individual puddings, or until golden and set.

    9

    Dust the tops with icing sugar, if desired. Serve warm with cream, custard or ice cream.
