How to Make Spring Fruit Charlotte

  1. Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C).
  2. Zest one lemon and set aside. Juice the lemon and measure out 1 tablespoon of juice.
  3. In a large bowl, gently combine the sliced peaches, blueberries, pie filling, 1 tablespoon lemon juice, and 1 teaspoon cinnamon. Mix until just combined.
  4. Reserve 1 cup of the fruit mixture. Pour the remaining fruit mixture into an 8x12 inch oval baking dish, mounding slightly in the center.
  5. In a separate 1-quart bowl, whisk together the pudding mix, milk, 1 teaspoon vanilla extract, and the egg until smooth and creamy.
  6. Using a serrated knife, carefully remove the crusts from the bread slices.
  7. Quickly dip each bread slice into the egg mixture, coating both sides lightly. Don't over-soak!
  8. Arrange the bread slices in an overlapping circular pattern around the edges of the baking dish, on top of the fruit mixture, leaving the center open.
  9. Pour any remaining egg mixture over the bread.
  10. Spoon the reserved 1 cup of fruit mixture into the center opening.
  11. Bake for 23-30 minutes, or until the edges of the bread are a deep golden brown and the pudding is set.
  12. Remove from oven and let stand for 10 minutes to cool slightly.
  13. Sprinkle generously with powdered sugar and the reserved lemon zest.
  14. Serve warm, optionally with a scoop of vanilla ice cream or whipped cream.
