For the custard

3 eggs 

Zest and juice of a lemon 

1 tsp of vanilla extract

1/4 tsp of cinnamon 

200ml of milk

1tbsp of honey 

For the pudding

A good handful of sultanas 

2 tbsps of butter at room temperature 

Apricot jam 

To serve 

Toffee sauce 

Whipped mascarpone 

Fresh strawberries 

Method 

Pre heat your oven to 180C.

Start by baking the croissants until golden or you can buy already baked ones. The staler they are the better. 

Next make the custard by adding all the ingredients into a bowl and whisk really well. Now pass them through a sieve and then set aside until are you assembling. 

In the bottom of your baking tray add the sultanas. Now slice up the croissants and butter them with the softened butter. Layer them into the tray and once done pour over all the custard. 

Place the pudding tray into another larger tray with water and bake for 20-30 minutes.

Allow to cool in the tray before serving warm with the toffee sauce, berries and whipped mascarpone.
