Indulgent Christmas puddings topped with luscious custard for a truly unforgettable treat.
Ingredients:
  • 600g dessert figs, chopped
  • 200g pitted dates, chopped
  • 250.00 ml port
  • 200g butter
  • 135.00 gm brown sugar
  • 437.50 ml fresh breadcrumbs
  • 82.50 ml plain flour
  • 49.50 gm self-raising flour
  • 100g hazelnuts, roasted and chopped
Instructions:
  • Prepare 12 pudding moulds by greasing them and lining the bases with baking paper. In a bowl, combine dessert figs, pitted dates, and port, cover, and let it sit overnight.
  • Cream together butter and brown sugar until smooth. Add eggs and beat well. Gently fold in fresh breadcrumbs, plain flour, self-raising flour, and hazelnuts.
  • Combine the fruit and its juice before gently spooning the mixture into moulds. Cover the moulds securely with baking paper and foil, tying them with kitchen string. Place the moulds in a baking dish and fill with enough boiling water to reach halfway up the sides. Bake for 1-1 1/2 hours, then serve with custard.
