Air Fryer Method
  1. Spread one side of brioche slices with 1 tablespoon of the curd. Cut into quarters. Overlap slices in a 20cm x 5cm high (about 3 cup capacity) round ovenproof dish that will fit inside your air fryer basket, crust side up, in a circle and into the centre.
  2. Whisk together eggs, cream, milk and remaining curd until smooth. Pour evenly over the brioche. Stand for 10 minutes to absorb. Sprinkle with blueberries, poking some in between slices.
  3. Air-fry at 120°C for 20 minutes, increase heat to 150°C and air-fry for 15 minutes or until the top is lightly caramelised and custard is set.
  4. Stand for 15 minutes to allow the custard to finish setting. Dust with icing sugar. Serve topped with ice cream and extra curd.

 

Oven Method
  1. Cook in a moderately low oven heat (160°C) for 40 minutes or until golden and the custard is set.
  2. Allow to stand for 20 minutes. Serve with ice cream.

Notes

  • You can use any berry or a combination of frozen berry fruits.
  • We used 8mm thick slices from a 500g loaf of pre-sliced brioche from the supermarket.
  • If your bowl is a tight fit in an air fryer basket, make two 5cm thick wide straps of foil that will come up the sides of the basket. Place foil straps in the basket to form a cross. Place the bowl on top. Tuck foil straps down beside the bowl whilst cooking. Use these to easily remove, with oven mitts, once the pudding has cooled a little.
  • It is important to use a shallow flat dish for air frying for custard to set. Round bowls do not work.
