Warm Pear Spiced Raisin Bread and Butter Pudding
Great for brunch, but great for dessert as well! This is such a versatile recipe to bring to the table, and it's a great way to use up those soft, ripe pears in the fruit bowl. Why not try using the Sweet Spiced Sugar Blend from The Easter Issue in lieu of the mixed spice and sugar for a great flavour boost?
Recipe Tester Feedback: “It was enjoyed by all the family, and the pear gives it an unexpected sweet hit. It baked up beautifully and tastes great." - Tracey
