Orange, Apple & Raisins Bread Pudding & Giveaway!

One of my favourite sweet treat! One irresistible dessert! It's so irresistible that I had it for breakfast this morning! LOL

 

 

Creamy and delicious with a hint of apple and burst of orange in every bite!

 

 

 

What you need:

 

3 white bread, remove the crust

apple juice & oranges (from 2 cups of SunMoon orange fruit cups)

a handful of golden raisins

about 150ml half & half

1/2 tsp vanilla extract

some Demerara sugar, to sprinkle

a little butter to grease the baking dish

 

Method:

1. Mix vanilla extract, apple juice and half & half. Soak raisins in it. Leave it for 30 minutes
2. Grease baking dish with butter, I used 15cm round dish
3. Cut bread in cubes. Arrange 1/3 part on the dish. Sprinkle with 1/3 part of the oranges. Pour 1/3 part of the liquid mixture with the raisins
4. Top with another 1/3 part of the bread cubes. Followed by another 1/3 part of the oranges and liquid and raisins mixture
5. Then finish up with the last 1/3 part of the bread cubes, oranges and liquid and raisins mixture
6. Press gently the top with the back of a spoon and set aside for about 30 minutes
7. Sprinkle with Demerara sugar just before baking
8. Bake au bain marie in a preheated oven of 180degC for 25 minutes

 

Nom nom nom... no sugar used  (except for the Demerara sugar for the topping). Thanks to the apple juice used from SunMoon fruit cups :)

 

 

SunMoon has been so generous by sharing their products with me :)

 

 

 

The fruit crisps are rather addictive. I received two variants - strawberry banana and mango pineapple. I love both, but if I were to choose, I would choose the first one :)

 



Also, they have a selection of fruit cups - peaches, mandarin oranges and mixed fruits

All are only fresh fruits used soaked in 100% apple juice. No super sweet sugar laden syrup like what we usually find in canned fruits

These fruit cups have no sugar added, no preservatives, artificial colourings and flavourings used

This convenient on the go snack is rich in vitamin C, great for people of all ages and a healthier choice approved, too!

 

These fruit cups are great to make jelly (minus the sugar!), toss in salad, oatmeal or yoghurt. I am thinking to add in my regular morning smoothies or make overnight oats with it! Will share once I make them :)

 

They are sold for $1.90 for twin pack at Sheng Siong and NTUC Fairprice supermarkets, selected SPC & Caltex stations. Also SunMoon retail and online store (www.sunmoondirect.com)

 

For now til 9 May 2014, there is an introductory offer of Buy 2 and Get 1 FREE in all NTUC  Fairprice and Sheng Siong
