Light and flavorful Christmas pudding recipe inspired by my Nan, effortless to make yet bursting with dynamic flavors. Enjoy a modern twist on a classic favorite.
Ingredients:
  • unsalted butter for greasing
  • 150 g Medjool dates
  • 150 g dried apricots
  • 150 g pecan nuts
  • 75 g crystallized ginger
  • 1 small sprig of fresh rosemary
  • 150 g dried cranberries
  • 150 g raisins
  • 150 g suet
  • 150 g plain flour
  • 75 g fresh breadcrumbs
  • 200 ml semi-skimmed milk
  • 1 large free-range egg
  • 1 clementine
  • golden syrup
  • barrel-aged Bourbon
Instructions:
  • Prepare the pudding bowl by greasing it with butter. Destone the dates and finely chop them along with the apricots, pecans, ginger, and rosemary either by hand or in a food processor. Combine this mixture in a bowl with cranberries, raisins, suet, flour, breadcrumbs, milk, egg, clementine zest, and juice. Mix well, then transfer the mixture into the greased bowl. Cover with greaseproof paper and foil, securing with string, and place in a saucepan filled halfway with water. Boil, then simmer for 4 hours, checking and adding water as needed. Once cooked, invert the pudding onto a plate. Serve with a drizzle of golden syrup and Bourbon, or flambe it for a showstopping finish. Accompany with cream, custard, or ice cream. Serve and enjoy!
