5 large eggs Or 4 X-large eggs
125 ml cup sugar
50 ml butter
Apricot Jam Sauce:
100 ml Smooth Apricot Jam
80 ml boiling water.
Combine together until jam is saucy.
Pour over when the pudding is done
Method

Bread pudding and “No” Bread Pudding which do you prefer?
Sounds great, Esme. I LOVE custard so will definitely try it .SO different to British bread pudding. This was popular in the second world war for obvious reasons. My mother used to put in as much fruit as she could spare (chopped left-overs,, sultanas, currents, glace etc.,) Very tasty but filling! Cheers. x
Its still a favorite in our house, although I now use GF bread to make mine, but still super delicious
Sounds delicious.
Thanks, hope you will try and enjoy it
Sounds delicious.
Thanks Reena, its very versatile and you can add some dried fruit, also very yummy
