Serves: 4-6
Ingredients
- 8 (approx. 280g) butter brioche rolls
- 1 cup (130g) frozen or fresh raspberries
- 120g white chocolate, cut into rough chunks
- ½ cup (50g) pecans, roughly chopped
- 4 eggs
- ½ cup (120ml) double cream
- 1 cup (240ml) whole milk
- ¼ cup (60ml) maple syrup
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
Method
If making ahead to freeze:
- Tear the brioche rolls into pieces and put them into a large labelled freezer bag along with the raspberries, the chunks of white chocolate and the chopped pecans.
- Put the eggs, double cream, milk, maple syrup and vanilla extract into a mixing jug. Whisk together with a fork, then pour into the freezer bag. Give everything a good mix and freeze flat.
Oven:
- Remove from the freezer and leave to fully defrost. Preheat the oven to 180°C. Pour everything into a lightly greased, medium-sized ovenproof dish and place in the oven for 30–40 minutes, until golden.
Air Fryer:
- Remove from the freezer and leave to fully defrost. Preheat the air fryer to 180°C. Pour the mix into a lightly greased air fryer-safe dish and cook for 10 minutes, then remove and cover well with tin foil. Return to the air fryer for another 10–12 minutes, until golden.
If cooking now:
- Put the eggs, double cream, milk, maple syrup and vanilla extract into a mixing bowl and whisk with a fork.
- Tear the brioche rolls into pieces and add to the mixing bowl along with the raspberries, the chunks of white chocolate and the chopped pecans.
