1 cup green apple, peeled and diced
3 tablespoon raisin
2 egg yolk
2 whole eggs
1/3 cup sugar

1 teaspoon nutmeg (optional)
Preheat oven to 350 F. brush bottom of 9in square pan (or you can use individual molds) with half the melted butter. Toss bread cubes , apple and raisin together with the remaining butter and spoon into baking dish.
In a separate bowl whisk together eggs, egg yolk and sugar. Add in milk , cream, nutmeg and vanilla. Pour over bread and butter mixture, pressing down gently. Let stand for about 15 minutes. Sprinkle top with some sugar. Place the mold in a water bath and bake for about 50 minutes or until the centre of the pudding springs back and golden brown.
Vanilla Custard sauce

In a sauce pan mix all the above and whisk over  low heat until sauce thickens. Turn off the heat and strain through a strainer for a smooth sauce to be drizzle over the bread pudding.
