Marmalade Glazed Croissant Pudding Recipes

Steps:

• Spread croissant bottoms with 3 tablespoons marmalade; replace tops. Cut each croissant into 5 slices; place in a greased 11x7-in. baking dish., Whisk together the next 4 ingredients, orange zest if desired, and extract. Pour over croissants. Refrigerate, covered, overnight., Remove from refrigerator 30 minutes before baking. Preheat oven to 350°. Place dish in a larger baking dish. Fill larger dish with 1 in. boiling water., Bake, uncovered, until a knife inserted in center comes out clean, 40-45 minutes. Remove pan from water bath; cool on a wire rack 10 minutes. Brush remaining marmalade over top. Cut and serve warm.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
• In a medium bowl, whisk together the whole eggs, egg yolks, half-and-half, sugar, and vanilla. Set the custard mixture aside. Slice the croissants in half horizontally. In a 10 by 15 by 2 1/2-inch oval baking dish, distribute the bottoms of the sliced croissants, then add the raisins, then the tops of the croissants (brown side up), being sure the raisins are between the layers of croissants or they will burn while baking. Pour the custard over the croissants and allow to soak for 10 minutes, pressing down gently.
• Place the pan in a larger one filled with 1-inch of hot water. Cover the larger pan with aluminum foil, tenting the foil so it doesn't touch the pudding. Cut a few holes in the foil to allow steam to escape. Bake for 45 minutes. Uncover and bake for 40 to 45 more minutes or until the pudding puffs up and the custard is set. Remove from the oven and cool slightly. Serve warm or at room temperature.

Steps:

• Tear the croissants into smalll chuncks and place in a baking dish.
• Over medium heat, warm the milk and cream together. When at about room temperature, start to stir in the sugar. when it is dissolved, take the pan off the heat.
• Whisk the eggs in a separate bowl. Slowly pour into the milk mixture, stirring constantly.
• Pour the egg/milk mixture over the croissants. Sprinkle the optional extras over, if using, and set aside to soak for 10 minutes.
• Bake at 170 degrees in a water bath for 50 minutes or until the custard is set and the top is golden. Warm the marmalade in the microwave for 20 seconds or until it is liquid enough to spread. Spread over top of pudding to glaze. Serve with scoops of vanilla icecream.

Steps:

• Generously butter an ovenproof dish that measures about 20 x 30cm (8 x 12 inches).
• Arrange a single layer of croissant chunks, slightly overlapping, in the bottom of the dish. Scatter over some of the raisins, place another layer of croissant chunks on top and scatter over the remaining raisins. Press down gently with a fish slice or spatula.
• To make the custard, heat the cream and milk in a saucepan until the mixture comes almost to the boil. Remove from the heat. Meanwhile, whisk together the eggs, ground cinnamon and sugar in a large heatproof bowl set over a saucepan of simmering water until the mixture is thickened and the whisk or beaters leave a trail when lifted. Remove from the heat and beat in the cream mixture until well combined.
• Pour two-thirds of the custard over the croissants and leave to stand for about 30 minutes or until they have soaked up all the liquid. Preheat the oven to 180°C/350°F/gas mark 4.
• Pour the remaining custard over the soaked croissants and press down firmly with a fish slice or spatula so that the custard reaches halfway up the croissants. Place the dish in a roasting pan and pour in enough water to come a third of the way up the side of the dish. Bake for 30-35 minutes until the custard is just set and the top is golden brown. Serve immediately.
