Instructions
BREAD PUDDING PREPARATION
- Dice your Brioche into about 1"/3cm cube. Set aside.
- In your Mixing Bowl, whisk together the heavy whipping cream with the eggs, sugar and vanilla paste.
- Add your raisins and diced brioche. Gently coat them with your egg mixture. Cover and let it set up to one hour.
BLOOD ORANGE LEMON CURD
- While your bread pudding is soaking, prepare your blood orange Curd.
- Place your Small Round Flexipan® Mold on the top of an oven safe plate. Directly in your Flexipan®, mix the sugar, lemon/blood orange juice, softened butter with your spatula. Then, combine the egg.
- Microwave on high at 1 minute intervals, stirring after each minute, until the mixture is thick enough to coat the back of a metal spoon, about 5 minutes.
- Transfer into your jar, loosely covering with lid and allow to cool completely. Once cool, seal jars and place into refrigerator until ready to use.
ASSEMBLY & BAKE
- Preheat oven to 350F/180C.
- Place your Fluted Square Flexipan® Mold on the top of your Medium perforated baking sheet.
- Pour one layer of your bread pudding preparation into your Flexipan®. Then, add dollops of your blood orange curd. Repeat and sprinkle your Demerara sugar on top.
- Bake for 45 minutes at 350F/180C. (Every oven heats differently, monitor your bread pudding from 40min). It is ready when golden on top.
- Once your blood orange bread pudding is out of the oven, let it cool down for about 30min. Then, Unmold, Serve and Enjoy! Bon Appétit!
