INGREDIENTS
- 200ml (7floz) full fat milk

- 1 tsp vanilla essence
- 1 medium orange, thinly pared zest
- 60g (2½oz) unsalted butter, softened

INSTRUCTIONS
Butter up this classic warming treat
- Combine the milk, cream, vanilla and orange zest in a small non-stick pan. Simmer for 2-3 minutes, then turn off the heat, cover and leave to cool while those delicious flavours infuse.
- Butter up the bread on both sides, arranging half the slices in a 1.75l (3pt) capacity baking dish. Be generous - overlap the slices.
- Beat the eggs and the Lyle's Golden Syrup together in a jug and then add the milk mixture. Get rid of the orange, then pour half the milk mixture over the bread - arrange a second layer of bread on top then pour over the remainder of the milk. Leave to sit for 15 minutes while you preheat the oven to 180°C/160° Fan, 350°F, Gas 4.
- Pop the pudding dish in the roasting tin, fill halfway with hot water and bake on the middle shelf for 25-30 minutes.
- When it's golden brown and slightly caramelised at the edges, it's ready to enjoy remove and serve with custard or cream. You can't go wrong.
