Claire’s St Clements Marmalade Bread And Butter Pudding

1. Preheat the oven to 180°C/Gas 4. Lightly butter an 18 x 23cm baking dish.
2. Butter the slices of fruit loaf on one side, reserving a quarter of the butter, then spread 4 of the slices with 2 tbsp of the marmalade. Top with the remaining 4 slices of bread to make 4 rounds of sandwiches.
3. Spread the leftover butter on the top of each sandwich and cut each one into quarters. Arrange butter side up in the dish, overlapping each triangle and standing almost upright.
4. In a jug, whisk the milk, cream, eggs and sugar together and pour over the bread.
5. Top the bread that is standing proud with the remaining marmalade and bake for 30-35 minutes or until the pudding has puffed up and the crusts are golden brown and crunchy.

Tip: This pudding is delicious eaten hot or cold with custard or pouring cream.
