Dark chocolate and marmalade bread and butter pudding
Serves 8
Ingredients
- 100g unsalted butter, room temperature
- 10-12 slices of brioche, crusts removed
- 200g orange marmalade
- 100g 65% dark chocolate flakes
- 800ml full-fat milk
- 4 eggs
- 50g unrefined caster sugar
- 2 tbsp demerara sugar
Method
- Butter each slice of brioche, using all the butter. Dot the marmalade over all the slices, dividing evenly.
- Layer into a rectangular baking dish, sprinkling generously with chocolate as you tuck each slice into place. If you have any chocolate left at the end, sprinkle over the top.
- Whisk together the milk, eggs and caster sugar in a jug, then pour evenly over the brioche slices. Sprinkle with the remaining demerara sugar for crunch, then set aside for half an hour.
- Preheat oven to 160C Fan/180C/350F/Gas Mark 4.
- After 30 minutes, place the pudding into the centre of the oven and bake for 35-40 minutes. It will puff up, turning golden and crisped at the edges.
- Serve hot, dusted with icing sugar, alongside a jug of cold pouring cream or scoops of vanilla ice cream.
