Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 400 g Stollen bread
- 50 g Unsalted butter
- 300 ml Whole milk
- 200 ml Double cream
- 75 g Granulated sugar
- 3 Large eggs
- 1 tsp Vanilla extract
- 0.5 tsp Ground cinnamon
- 1 tbsp Icing sugar
- 1 tbsp Butter, for greasing
Instructions
Preheat the oven to 180°C (160°C fan)/350°F/Gas Mark 4 and grease a medium-sized ovenproof dish with butter.
Slice the Stollen bread into 1 cm thick slices. Lightly butter one side of each slice and set aside.
Arrange the buttered Stollen slices in the greased dish, slightly overlapping them to create layers.
In a medium saucepan, warm the milk and cream together over medium-low heat until just below boiling point. Do not let it boil. Remove from heat when bubbles form around the edges.
In a mixing bowl, whisk together the eggs, granulated sugar, vanilla extract, and cinnamon until well combined.
Slowly pour the warm milk and cream mixture into the egg mixture, whisking constantly to create a smooth custard.
Evenly pour the custard over the layered Stollen slices in the dish, ensuring all the bread is soaked. Let the mixture sit for 10 minutes to absorb the custard.
Place the dish in the center of the preheated oven and bake for 30–35 minutes, or until the custard is set and the top is golden and slightly crisp.
Remove the pudding from the oven and let it cool for a few minutes.
Dust with icing sugar before serving. Enjoy warm with cream or custard!
