RECIPE NOTES

Add some zest to your Easter celebrations! Made with orange and dark chocolate, this spiced pudding is indulgent and super simple to make.

INSTRUCTIONS

Preheat the oven to 200°C or 180°C fan-assisted.

Make the custard by beating together the eggs, cream, powdered vanilla, cinnamon, and zest.

Cut the hot cross buns in half and spread generously with butter. Sprinkle with chocolate drops and sandwich back together before arranging them in the Le Creuset 26cm Heritage Rectangular Dish.

Pour the custard around the buns, and bake for 45-50 minutes until the custard is set in the middle and golden in colour. Serve warm with vanilla ice cream or as is.
