Traditional Bread Pudding With Sultanas & Apricots

When I was a child my Mother would often make bread pudding using up bread that was just about to go stale. It's a great solution if you've got about half a loaf that is just past its best. White or wholemeal bread can be used but I actually prefer to use wholemeal as it's gives a great depth of flavour. Traditionally mixed fruits are added, but I love to use a mix of both sultanas and soft dried apricots for sweetness. It works wonderfully.
Note: make this pudding even more indulgent, serve warm with vanilla ice cream and a drizzle of golden or maple syrup. 😋

Steps
- 1
Tear up the bread into a large mixing bowl into 1 inch sized chunks. Add in all the dried fruit and spices.
- 2
Pour in the milk and using either your hands or a wooden spoon stir together well. Break the bread up as it becomes soggy. Add in the sugar, zest and juice of the lemon and the beaten eggs. Stir through well. Leave to soak up the flavours in the bowl for 15 mins. Whilst it's soaking preheat your oven to 160 (fan).
- 3
After the batter has soaked, pour the melted butter into the batter and stir through. Line the base of a round cake tin with greaseproof paper and butter the sides. Pour in the mixture. Smooth out then sprinkle light brown sugar (or demerara sugar can be used also).
- 4
Bake for 1 hour 10 mins until firm and golden and a toothpick comes out clean from the centre. Remove from the oven and leave to cool for a a couple of minutes then carefully turn it out. Finish with a very light sprinkling of granulated or demerara sugar to make it look pretty. Cut into either chunky squares or triangles. Serve whilst either warm or enjoy cold. :)
