butter in a large frying pan. Whiz the bread in a food processor to crumbs.

2 Mix the breadcrumbs and demerara sugar together, and add to the frying

~ it will all stick together so break up with a wooden spoon and leave to
crisp up and turn golden.

3 Roughly chop the dates. Remove the apples from the heat and stir in the
chopped dates. Set aside.

4 Finely chop the walnuts. Reserve two tablespoons for decoration and stir
the remainder into the breadcrumb mixture. Set aside.

5 For the Butterscotch Sauce: Place the butter and sugar into a small pan.
Heat gently until melted and then heat for 2-3 minutes. Remove from the
heat and gradually whisk in the double cream.

6 For the Topping: Pour the double cream into a bowl and whisk to soft
peaks. Fold in the cinnamon and icing sugar. Transfer to a piping bag
fitted with a star nozzle.

7 Start layering the apple and date mixture, butterscotch sauce and crispy
breadcrumbs into a tall glass. Top with a swirl of spiced cream and a
sprinkling over the reserved chopped walnuts.
