Ingredients
- 8 slices day-old brioche or white bread
- 50 grams unsalted butter, softened
- 3 large apples (e.g., Granny Smith or Braeburn), peeled, cored, and thinly sliced
- 75 grams soft light brown sugar
- 300 ml double cream (heavy cream)
- 200 ml whole milk
- 3 large eggs
- 75 grams granulated sugar
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 100 ml toffee sauce (store-bought or homemade)
- 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 50 grams raisins or sultanas (optional)
- 1 tablespoon powdered sugar, for dusting (optional)
Directions
Step 1
Preheat your oven to 180°C (160°C fan) or 350°F and grease a medium-sized ovenproof dish with butter.
Step 2
Spread the softened butter on one side of each slice of brioche or bread, then cut the slices into triangles or rectangles.
Step 3
In a frying pan over medium heat, add the light brown sugar and sliced apples. Sprinkle with ground cinnamon and cook for 5-7 minutes until softened. Remove from heat.
Step 4
Layer the buttered bread pieces in the prepared dish, overlapping slightly. Scatter the sautéed apples and optional raisins or sultanas between the bread layers.
Step 5
In a medium saucepan, gently heat the double cream and milk until just warm (do not allow to boil).
Step 6
In a bowl, whisk together the eggs, granulated sugar, and vanilla extract. Slowly pour the warm cream mixture over the egg mixture, stirring continuously to create a smooth custard.
Step 7
Pour the custard evenly over the bread and apple layers, pressing down gently with the back of a spoon to ensure the bread soaks up the custard.
Step 8
Drizzle the toffee sauce generously over the top.
Step 9
Place the pudding in the preheated oven and bake for 35-40 minutes, or until the custard is set and the top is golden brown.
Step 10
Allow the pudding to cool slightly before serving. Optional: Dust with powdered sugar just before serving for an added touch of elegance.
Step 11
Serve warm on its own, or with a dollop of whipped cream or a scoop of vanilla ice cream.
