- 250 ml Heavy cream
- 4 large Eggs
- 100 g Granulated sugar
- 60 ml Irish whiskey
- 1 tsp Vanilla extract

👨🍳 Istruzioni
- 1
Preheat oven to 180°C (160°C fan/350°F/Gas Mark 4). Lightly butter a 2-liter baking dish.
💡 Consigli Professionali: Using stale bread is key for absorbing the custard without becoming mushy. - 2
In a small pan, melt the butter over medium heat. Add the diced apples, cinnamon, and nutmeg. Cook until the apples are softened, about 5-7 minutes. Set aside.
- 3
In a large bowl, whisk together the milk, heavy cream, eggs, granulated sugar, Irish whiskey, vanilla extract, and salt until well combined.
💡 Consigli Professionali: Ensure the sugar is fully dissolved. - 4
Add the bread cubes to the custard mixture and gently press them down to ensure they are fully submerged. Let stand for 10-15 minutes, allowing the bread to soak up the liquid.
- 5
Gently fold in the sautéed apples.
💡 Consigli Professionali: Be careful not to break up the bread too much. - 6
Pour the mixture into the prepared baking dish. You can sprinkle a little extra cinnamon on top if desired.
💡 Consigli Professionali: For an even richer top, you can add a few small cubes of butter on top before baking. - 7
Bake for 40-50 minutes, or until the pudding is set and golden brown on top. A knife inserted into the center should come out clean.

Let cool for at least 10 minutes before serving. Serve warm, perhaps with a drizzle of extra whiskey sauce or a dollop of whipped cream.
💡 Consigli Professionali: Allowing it to rest helps it set further.
