    does anyone have any very quick and easy pud recipes. I'm thinking bread and butter pudding have slightly stale bread, eggs, cornflour, instant custard, sultanas, cinnamon but have never made it before

    thanks

    Fruit Cobbler Recipe

    In an oven proof dish add in 1 mug of self raising flour, 1 mug of granulated sugar and 1 mug of milk. Mix it all up so it's thoroughly mixed together and then add 1 tin of value tinned fruit of your choice on top. Bake in the oven on gas mark 4 until golden. The flour mix will rise up above the fruit.

    Chocolate Mousse

    Add about 3 quarters of a pint of single cream to a saucepan and heat up till almost at boiling point and add 1 block of value plain chocolate broken into cubes. Stir until the chocolate is melted and add to bowls and put in fridge to set.

    Strawberry mousse

    Boil half a pint of milk in a saucepan and add 1 jelly. Stir until the jelly has dissolved. At this point the milk will curdle but dont panic. Stir in half a pint of evaporated milk and then transfer to a dish to set in the fridge.

    B&B pudding 9my version lol)

    butter bread and cut into triangles (cut off crusts or leave em on ,they go nice and crunchy yummmm)
    layer in a dish,sprinkle with sugar / dried fruit (whatever you like)
    beat 2 eggs in a jug then add milk up to 3/4 pint mark
    pour over & leave for a while to soak in
    sprinkle demerera sugar over the top
    then bake in oven

    i prefer to leave the dried fruit out and make a choc one ( choc spread on the bread instead of butter) or a jam / marmalade one

    the fruit cobbler above is soooooooooo yummy and easy

    im making a pineapple and coconut one tonight

    Butter the bread and cut into triangles, mix 3 eggs with about a pint of milk. In an ovenproof dish layer the bread and sultanas with a sprinkle of sugar between the layers, finishing with a layer of bread. Sprinkle sugar and cinammon on top if you like it and then carefully pour over the milk and eggs.. let it soak in for as long as you can before bakeing at 170* until its crispy on the top..... delicious... and you don't need to be too exact with the ingredients... I just bung in however much I feel like and it seems to always come out delice....

    Check the Old Style Recipe Collection.

    In there under "Sweets" are recipes for microwave sponge puds and suet puds. Both highly recommended.


    You can find these via my signature any time you see it or...

    ..you can use the Indexed Collections link in the Blue Bar at the top of every page which looks something like this:-
