Ingredients

• BREAD PUDDING:
• 1 package King's Hawaiian Sweet Rolls, stale
• 2/3 to 3/4 cup half and half
• 2 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted
• 1 large egg
• 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
• 1/3 cup granulated white sugar
• pinch of salt
• APPLE PIE FILLING:
• 2 large granny smith apples, peeled and cubed
• 3 tablespoons unsalted butter
• 1/3 cup light brown sugar
• 1 1/4 teaspoon cinnamon
• pinch of salt
• 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
• 1/2 tablespoon lemon juice
• 2 teaspoons cornstarch
• 1 tablespoon water

Method

1. Melt the butter for the filling in a pan over medium heat, then add the apples, light brown sugar, cinnamon, salt, vanilla and lemon juice and stir to coat.
2. Simmer the apples on low for 6 to 8 minutes until a fork slides in easily.
3. Mix the water and cornstarch into a slurry, stir it into the pan until the filling thickens, then move the filling to a bowl.
4. Heat the oven to 350°F and whisk the half and half, melted butter, egg, vanilla, white sugar and salt together until smooth.
5. Tear the sweet rolls into smaller pieces in a large bowl, pour the milk mixture over them and toss gently with a spatula so every piece is soaked.
6. Layer half the soaked bread into two individual skillets, spoon the apple filling over it, and cover with the remaining bread.
7. Bake on the middle rack for 15 to 20 minutes, until the tops are golden brown and the centers are set, and serve the puddings warm in their skillets.
