Christmas Pudding


I often say that my recipes are simple! Some would reply that they are not unlike myself! I'm a big believer in the art of cooking being enjoyable, if you don't enjoy it then why on earth would you bother?! So recipes should be easy to follow, but, also allow the person following said recipe, to be able to add, take away, experiment!!!


This Christmas pudding recipe is the easiest recipe you'll ever come across, it's the one I've been using for more years than I care to remember! Yes! I am that old!


What you will be able to do is add, leave out, whatever you want, if you don't want to put nuts in, add extra fruit, if you don't want to put peel in, add cherries! If you don't want to put alcohol in, add apple juice, you get the picture

The earlier you make it, the better it will be, so get cracking!



This pudding will serve 4-6 people
