Featuring Pure Maple Syrup
6-8 portions

Ingredients

  • 300ml whole milk
  • 150ml double cream
  • 1 tsp ground cinnamon
  • 1 tsp vanilla bean paste
  • 2 tbsp pure maple syrup (preferably golden colour for its delicate flavour or amber syrup for its rich taste)
  • 10-12 day-old croissants
  • 50g cream cheese
  • 50g berry jam
  • 2 large eggs
  • 1 x 397g can condensed milk
  • Handful of blueberries and blackberries for scattering

Method

  1. Heat the oven to 190°C / 170°C fan / 375F and lightly grease a baking dish big enough to accommodate 10-12 croissants.
  2. Pour the milk and cream into a saucepan and add the ground cinnamon, vanilla extract and maple syrup.
  3. Add the croissants and toss them in the milky mixture until they’ve soaked it up and are evenly coated.
  4. Transfer the soaked croissants to the baking dish and in the now empty bowl, whisk the eggs and condensed milk.
  5. Dollop the jam and cream cheese into the crevices of the pudding, then carefully pour the custardy mixture over the whole pudding.
  6. Place the pudding in the oven for 30 minutes until golden brown on top. At this point, scatter the berries on top and return to the oven for a final 10 minutes until they’re bubbling and bursting.
  7. Drizzle with extra maple syrup and serve immediately.

More about maple

The colour and flavour of maple syrup changes in subtle ways during the seasonal harvest

At the start of the sugaring season, the syrup is generally clear, with a light, sweet taste. It becomes darker with a caramelised flavour as the season progresses throughout the spring.

An unopened can of maple syrup keeps for many years

Once the can is opened, syrup should be kept in an airtight container in a cool place.

Maple spread doesn't contain any butter or dairy products

Like all 100% pure maple products, maple spread comes from the sap of the maple tree — that’s all.
