Bread and Butter Pudding is a true comfort food. This recipe is made with Panettone, an Italian Christmas cake. Or you can just use normal bread. Serves six.
Ingredients:
Half Panettone (sliced and lightly buttered then placed overlapping in a shallow baking dish)
500ml cream
500ml milk
1 vanilla pod split and seeds scraped out
2 whole eggs
6 egg yolks
200g sugar
4 tbsp apricot jam
Icing sugar for dusting
Method:
Place the milk, cream and vanilla pod in a saucepan and bring to the boil.
Whisk the eggs, egg yolks and sugar. Whisk the milk onto the egg yolk and sugar mix.
Pour the custard over the sliced Panettone and bake in low oven (150C) for 20-25 minutes until just set.
Brush with the apricot jam and dust with the icing sugar.
Serve warm or at room temperature.
This recipe is from Darren Simpson, Head Chef Aqua Luna Restaurant, Circular Quay, Sydney.
2 or 3 Croissants
This very simple recipe can be made using either fresh or leftover panettone and croissants. You can also add dried fruits of your choice if you wish. Adjust the quantities to suit the size of your baking dish.
You need an oven dish about 20cm x 30cm (8in x 12in) for this quantity.
Preheat oven to 180 degrees Celsius (350 degrees Fahrenheit).
Cut croissants and panettone into slices and fit them neatly into the oven dish.
In a bowl mix eggs with milk, cream and rum. Pour this liquid over the croissants and panettone. Sprinkle with brown sugar and bake in the oven until set. It takes about 20-30 Mins.
I have made this and I thought it was a great substitute for the full fat version, and if you like you can serve it with no fat custard or some vanilla fruche or lf frozen yoghurt or icecream
Place the orange, almond paste and almond flour in a bowl and mix with a spoon. This is a good base for the rest of the salad.
Add everything else. Stir.
Change the fruits depending on what is in season.  For example add a mango or blueberries to sweeten. You can put in as much as you like but apple, banana and orange make a good basic start.  I also like to add a dollop of coconut milk, it makes a soft consistency. Every time I make this it has a different personality!
Chop your fruit finely and it will melt in your mouth.Â
Enjoy for breakfast and morning tea.  Also good with yogurt.
It comes out like a creamy sort of fruit salad but not acidic, it is really easy to eat and tastes good IMHO. There's no museli in this one, but I'm certain it would taste good with museli too.
I absolutely love trifle, the real traditional kind like my nanna used to make (bless her) O

Is bread pudding like bread and butter pudding? If so, I posted a request a little while ago that some people replied to that had great easy recipes. Just keep flipping the pages back and you'll find the post.
Let me know if you have any probs if this is what you wanted.
