Step 1

Preheat the oven to 170°C, gas mark 3.

Step 2

Halve the cinnamon buns as you would a burger bun, and arrange, overlapping, in an ovenproof dish (about 1 litre in capacity)

Step 3

In a medium saucepan, heat the cream, vanilla and milk until steaming. Meanwhile, in a mixing bowl, use a balloon whisk to whisk the eggs and sugar.

Step 4

Slowly pour the hot milk mixture over the eggs, whisking continuously until combined. Pour this custard all over the buns, making sure they are well-soaked.

Step 5

Bake for about 30 minutes until the pudding is just golden in places and set on top. Stand for 5 minutes before serving.
