Caramel Bread and Butter Pudding

Instructions

1. 1

   Preheat the oven to 180°C. In a large mixing bowl, combine the bread, butter, brown sugar, cinnamon, nutmeg, and salt. Toss until the bread is evenly coated.

   Tip: To avoid bread getting soggy, make sure to let it cool down slightly.

2. 2

   In a separate bowl, whisk together the eggs, milk, heavy cream, and butter pudding mix until well combined.

   Tip: Whisking until smooth will help prevent lumps in the pudding.

3. 3

   Add the golden syrup to the egg mixture and whisk until well combined.

   Tip: Golden syrup adds a rich, caramel-like flavor to the pudding.

4. 4

   Fold the egg mixture into the bread mixture until the bread is evenly coated.

   Tip: Be gentle to avoid crushing the bread.

5. 5

   Add the raisins and dried cranberries to the bread mixture and fold until they are evenly distributed.

   Tip: These dried fruits add natural sweetness and chewiness to the pudding.

6. 6

   Transfer the mixture to a 20x20cm baking dish and bake for 35-40 minutes or until the top is golden brown.

   Tip: To ensure even baking, rotate the dish halfway through the baking time.

7. 7

   Remove from the oven and let cool for 10 minutes before serving.

   Tip: Serve warm and enjoy!
