Ingredients

  • 2-3 - stale croissants
  • 1/2 cup sugar
  • 2 tablespoons water
  • 1/2 cup heavy cream
  • 1/2 cup milk
  • 2 tablespoons spiced rum
  • 2 - egg, beaten

How To Make spiced rum caramel croissant pudding

  • Step 1
    Preheat the oven to 350F.
  • Step 2
    In a cast iron pan or baking dish, tear the stale croissants into bite-sized pieces
  • Step 3
    Caramelize the sugar and water mixture by allowing to come to a boil without stirring, until it all turns an amber over medium/high. Be patient! Typically takes 3-5 minutes
  • Step 4
    Once it’s rich in colour, remove from the heat and whisk in the cream. This will cause quite a fuss in the pan, but that’s okay
  • Step 5
    Whisk in the milk and rum; Any solid toffee that forms in the pan will dissolve easily if you keep whisking over low heat.
  • Step 6
    Take off the heat and, still whisking, add the beaten eggs. Stir the custard mixture well.
  • Step 7
    Pour the mixture over the croissants and let it sit and soak up for a few minutes
  • Step 8
    Bake for 15-20 minutes. Serve warm
