Coffee Orange Marmalade Pudding

Coffee and Orange Marmalade Pudding

There are so many things one can do with marmalade. I especially like the Orange marmalade cake. This recipe too sounded nice and so I tried it out. Turned out pretty well too. If you like bread pudding then this is a definite yes-yes.

The original recipe had orange flavoured custard powder which I dint have. So I substituted it with coffee flavoured. You can use any flavour you want or have handy.

This poor man’s pudding has a special place on the dinner table. If nothing else one can at least feast on bread pudding. Bread, fresh or stale, is easily available in every home. And the possibilities of experimentation are endless.

Ingredients

1 ½ cups milk

½ packet Coffee flavoured custard powder

 4 tbsp Orange marmalade

3 tbsp sugar

3 tbsp butter

 1 ¼ cups bread crumbs

1 egg

First make the custard using the milk, custard powder, sugar and butter. Boil the milk along with suagr and butter. Dissolve the custard powder in a little cold water and add to the milk.

Cook for a few minutes.

Pour the custard over the bread crumbs and mix well.

When cool, add the marmalade and beaten egg.

Grease little moulds.

Pour into little moulds and cover with foil.

Preheat the oven at 180 degrees.

Prepare a Bain Marie.

Bain Marie is a fancy term for a hot water bath. It is used to cook delicate desserts like puddings, custards and terrines as it creates a gentle and uniform heat around the food.

Simply take a baking dish and fill it ¾ with water.

Put it in the oven to heat the water. Once the water is hot the put in the moulds and cook for about 40 minutes.
