A symphony of flavours awaits in every bite of our Lemon Custard Croissant Pudding. Layers of buttery croissants, velvety custard & tangy lemon curd come together in this irresistible dessert.

We’ve gone all-out with this decadent lemon curd dessert, which not only tastes great but will have your house smelling like a bakery. Full of gooey custard and lemon curd, it’s a sweet treat full of zesty citrus for the perfect balance. The lemon croissant mix is incredible too, with the delicate butteriness of the croissants offsetting the curd perfectly. You won’t be able to stop at one helping!

Ingredients

4 Bakers Delight Croissants, halved lengthways
400g lemon curd
500g ready-made custard
200 mls milk
Icing sugar & pouring cream to serve

Method

STEP 1

Preheat oven to 180C/160C fan forced

STEP 2

Arrange croissant bases in the bottom of the dish

STEP 3

Place custard & milk in a small saucepan over medium heat. Cook, stirring, for 2-3 minutes or until the mixture just comes to the boil. Pour half the mixture over the croissant bases. Dollop tablespoonfuls of half the lemon curd over the top.

STEP 4

Arrange croissant tops over the filling. Pour the remaining custard mixture over the top. Set aside for 30 minutes to allow the croissants to absorb some of the custard mixture.
