The rich bread used here is already packed full of fruit - then simply spread with marmalade for a deliciously old-fashioned pudding. Serve warm with single cream or warm custard.

Ingredients
25g unsalted butter, slightly softened
8 slices Waitrose Richly Fruited Bread, crusts left on
4 tbsp Waitrose Three Fruit Marmalade
450ml semi-skimmed milk
3 large eggs
25g golden caster sugar
Method
Preheat the oven to 180°C, gas mark 4. Lightly grease a 1.5-litre ovenproof dish. Lightly butter the bread slices, then spread with a little of the marmalade. Cut each slice into quarters diagonally then layer the pieces in the prepared dish as neatly as possible.
In a jug, beat the milk, eggs and sugar together lightly, using a fork. Pour the milk mixture evenly over the bread and bake in the oven for 35-40 minutes until the top is golden brown and the custard has lightly set.
