Method

Select a 1.4 to 1.7 liter ovenproof dish.

Preheat the oven to 180°C and grease the dish with some melted butter.

Mix the dried fruit, caster sugar, zest, and spice in a bowl.

Cut each bread slice into three strips.

Layer buttered bread strips and fruit mixture into the dish, finishing with a buttered bread layer.

Beat the eggs, cream, and milk together to create a custard.

Pour the custard over the bread and sprinkle with demerara sugar.

Let the pudding stand for one hour if possible.

Bake for 30 to 40 minutes until golden-brown and puffed.
