This was quite nice, not one of my favourites (the bread puddings are my very favourites) but nevertheless tasty and filling with a little custard over the top… good old Birds Eye custard!
Apple Pudding
- 1 lb of apples
- 3 oz sugar
- 6 oz of self-raising flour (or plain flour with 1.5 teaspoons of baking powder added)
- pinch salt
- 1 level teaspoon of mixed spice (I’ve used cinnamon and a little nutmeg before)
- 1/2 oz margarine
- 1.5 teacups of milk and water
- 1/2 oz sugar
- 0.5 teaspoons of lemon essence
Method
- Sift the flour, salt and spice, rub in the 1/2 oz of margarine and then mix in the 1/2 oz of sugar.
- Beat in half the liquid gradually
- Beat thoroughly then add the rest of the liquid and lemon essence and beat again
- Peel the apples and cut into small pieces and mix with 2.5 oz of sugar
- Put in a greased casserole and pour the batter over (I used meatloaf pans)
- Bake in a moderate oven for 45 minutes
- Sprinkle with remaining sugar and serve hot with custard or jam sauce
Serves 6
Did you only use the given ingredients once (to get both) or twice (repeated the process)?
how any servings did it make?
it serves 6, nice recipe aswell
I made this today and it came out as 8 serves. I used 800g (almost 2 lbs) of cooked apple, and the top came out almost like an old fashioned pie crust. In fact, it tasted like apple pie:)
I’m late to this party, but how much liquid is in a teacup?
