Ingredients

  • pudding
  • 1 medium apple
  • 1 tablespoon butter plus additional for baking dish
  • 2 teaspoons sugar
  • 1/4 cup sweetened condensed milk
  • 1/4 cup heavy cream
  • 1 cup whole milk
  • 2 large eggs
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla
  • cinnamon and nutmeg to taste
  • 4 slices soft white bread
  • tres leches sauce
  • 2 tablespoons sweetened condensed milk
  • 2 tablespoons heavy cream
  • 1/4 cup milk

Method

  • Butter a small round baking dish generously. Break up bread slices into the dish. In a separate bowl dice the apple and toss with the sugar. Melt a tablespoon of butter in a saucepan and saute the apple pieces gently for about five minutes until they are softened but not yet applesauce. Let cool while you beat the eggs vigorously together with the three milks, add vanilla and pour over the bread. Mix in the sauteed apple. Pour into pan and sprinkle a lot of cinnamon and a little nutmeg over. Place in fridge and let sit for an hour or more or overnight (if wanting it for brunch).
  • When ready to cook, bake in preheated 350 degree oven for about 25-30 minutes. Take from oven while still a bit jiggly in centre. I used a water bath to keep it the custard ultra soft as in the restaurant version but it would probably be fine without.
  • Mix the sauce ingredients and serve the pudding spooned into bowls with the sauce poured over it.
