This Apple Pie Hot Cross Bun Pudding is a beauty of a dessert and perfect for a Easter celebration. It is the most glorious flavorsome pudding I have ever eaten and I can’t wait for you to try it!

This is a twist on a classic bread and butter pudding combined with the flavors of an apple pie. If your looking for a new recipe to use up all those scrummy hot cross buns then this recipe is perfect for you!

Making a hot cross bun pudding is thankfully very easy, which we all need after a long weekend of cooking. I have done many testers to get the flavor of apple pie just right while still making sure its a hot cross bun pudding.

Tip time my lovely friends!

Tips for making hot cross bun pudding:

• I personally prefer the traditional spiced fruit hot cross buns for this recipe. But you can use any flavor you’d prefer. Chocolate hot cross buns would be nice.

• Let the apple pie custard soak into the hot cross buns. You know when you eat bread & butter pudding and there are bits of dry bread? That’s because the bread hadn’t absorbed the custard mixture before being cooked.

• You want to get it all delicious with the caramelization edge parts but you don’t want to burn it, definitely cover with tin foil part way through as the custard mixture is sensitive to heat.

I hope you all have/had a wonderful Easter! Paige x
