Just desserts

Rhubarb and vanilla bread and butter pudding

This one’s a little bit magic, the way a custard forms to hold it all together and the pings of rhubarb add a fruity lightness.

Serves 6-8

6 croissants
Soft butter for spreading
2 cups chopped rhubarb
300ml milk
300ml cream
4 large eggs
½ cup sugar
1 tablespoon vanilla extract
Icing sugar to dust

1. Preheat oven to 160°C fan-bake (180°C regular) and butter an ovenproof dish.

Slice each croissant into 3-4 thick slices.
