Looking for a way to use up those leftover Hot Cross Buns lying around? Why not try a classic bread & butter pudding with a twist, perfect for elevating this classic Easter treat. This pudding is perfect revitalizing those leftover less than fresh buns you may have.

 

Ingredients:

• Coupland’s Hot Cross Buns (either Traditional, Fruitless, Double Choc or Cranberry will work!)
• 50g Butter
• 1 1/2 cups milk
• 3 eggs
• 1 cup cream
• 2 tbsp caster sugar
• 1 tsp vanilla essence
• 1/4 cup raisins
• Icing sugar, whipped cream or your favourite ice cream to serve (optional)

 

 

Method:

• Preheat the oven to 180 degrees Celsius. Grease a baking dish with butter.
• Leaving the hot cross buns stuck together, cut them in half length ways (this leaves you with a top half and a bottom half.) Butter the bottom half, and add this to your baking dish. Sprinkle raisins over, then add the top half on.
• Mix eggs, milk, cream, caster sugar and vanilla essence together in a bowl. Pour this mixture over the buns and set aside to soak for at 10-20 minutes.
• Bake in your oven for 30 minutes, ensuring that the top of the buns are golden and the custard has set.
• To serve, dust with icing sugar and serve warm with whipped cream or ice cream.

 

Top Tips:

This pudding is also great for making a day ahead, simply heat up in a slightly warm oven covered with foil.

Our handcrafted, traditional Hot Cross Buns pair perfectly with the saltiness of the bacon and sweetness of the maple syrup to create the ultimate flavour combination. Perfect for an indulgent weekend brunch – with only 3 ingredients!

 

Ingredients:

• Coupland’s Fruitless Hot Cross Buns
• Your favourite bacon
• Maple syrup

 

 

Method:

• Heat up a frying pan and cook the bacon to your liking.
• While the bacon is frying, cut the Hot Cross Buns in half and toast (we did this in the oven, but a sandwich press works just as well.)
• Once the bacon is cooked, press it with a paper towel to remove excess oil.
• Load up your toasted Hot Cross Buns with bacon, and top generously with maple syrup. Serve immediately.
