Instructions

Step 1

Serves 4-6

Step 2

In a bowl, lightly beat the eggs, milk, marmalade and cinnamon, if using. Cut the buns in half horizontally and generously butter the tops. Roughly tear the bases into an ovenproof dish into which all the buns will fit snugly. Scatter over half the walnuts and chocolate chips, then nestle the whole buttered bun lids on top.

Step 3

Pour the custard over the lot, then scatter over the remaining nuts and chocolate chips, if using.

Step 4

Squash down the buns so they soak up the custard, then bake in a preheated 200C (180C fan)/390F/gas 6 oven for 20 minutes, until golden brown. Dust with icing sugar and serve warm with cream or ice-cream.
