Method

  1. Prepare the Bread:
    • Preheat your oven to 180°C / Gas Mark 4.
    • Lightly butter the slices of bread on one side.
  2. Assemble the Pudding:
    • Spread each slice generously with The Dockyard Company Seville Orange Marmalade.
    • Cut each slice into triangles or halves, and arrange them in a buttered ovenproof dish, overlapping slightly.
  3. Make the Custard:
    • In a mixing bowl, whisk together the eggs, milk, caster sugar, vanilla extract, and orange zest until well combined.
  4. Pour and Soak:
    • Slowly pour the custard mixture over the bread slices, ensuring all are evenly soaked. Allow the custard to soak into the bread for about 15 minutes.
  5. Bake:
    • Sprinkle the top with a dusting of ground cinnamon and a scattering of demerara sugar.
    • Place the dish in the preheated oven and bake for 30-35 minutes, or until the pudding is golden and set, with a slight wobble in the centre.
  6. Serve:
    • Remove from the oven and let it sit for a few minutes before serving.
    • Optionally, serve with a dollop of clotted cream or vanilla ice cream for added indulgence.

Tips:

  • Ensure the bread is slightly stale for better absorption of the custard.
  • Adjust sweetness to your taste by varying the amount of sugar or marmalade used.
  • Experiment with different types of bread or our jams for unique variations!
