Instructions

• About 24 hours before preparing this bread pudding
, cut bread into 1/2 inch cubes and spread it out on a large baking sheet. Leave it out to get stale for about a day.

• Apple Pie Filling:

• Peel, core and dice apples.

• In a medium sauce pan, over medium heat, melt butter. Add flour and stir well with a whisk. Add 3/4 cup of brown sugar and stir well.

• Add diced apples, apple pie spice and water, stir and cover. Cook over medium heat until the apples are soft, stirring occasionally. (10-15 minutes.)

• Take off heat and strain through a strainer, saving the juices. You will be using the juice to top off cooked bread pudding.

• Let the cooked apples cool a bit.

• Bread Pudding:

• Preheat the oven to 375 and lightly grease a 9x13 casserole dish.

• Spread stale bread in the baking dish evenly. Spread apples all over the bread evenly. Move it around a little to let some apples get between the bread.

• In a large mixing bowl, whisk eggs, milk, melted butter, vanilla extract, 1/2 cup of brown sugar, apple pie spice, and cinnamon.

• Pour egg mixture all over the bread and apples. Press down on bread lightly and put in the oven.

• Bake for 35-40 minutes. You can check for doneness by touching in the center, if it feels dense and firm, the eggs are cooked.

• Pull bread pudding out of the oven and pour saved juices from cooking apples all over the bread pudding.

• Serve bread pudding warm and with a scoop of vanilla ice cream on top.

Could even use ardmona pie apples to save time.
 
Never heard of apple pie spice???
From the description of the ingredients, it appears that "Babybird" may be American. I often refer to American Apple Pies more correctly as Cinnamon pies with apple. This menu reinforces it.

This sounds and looks delicious but ....

perhaps for Australian readers of Australian magazines recipe weights should be in metric measures, ingredients should be as named in Australia eg. plain flour or self-raising flour, condiments included should be as available here or alternatives listed etc.

This would make it much easier for prospective cooks who then don't need to 'translate' or research.

Agree and we have told her this before but she says it's easy for people to look up

What a disappointing attitude. It is NOT easy for everyone to look up / work out the necessary 'translations' and comparisons.

If I, for instance, want to include something in a magazine published/produced in another country, I would want potential readers to understand what I have presented WITHOUT leaving obstacles for them to overcome.

If it is so 'easy' the contributor should make the necessary amendments before submitting it to SDC.

This recipe is similar to one of my favourite winter desserts from the Esk Valley (Tasmania) CWA cookbook. If you put a crumble mix on top of the pudding and bake it then you have a really Australian dessert.

I've got the same book. Bought it when my hubby and I went for a holiday in the 80's.
