Warming Winter Pudding
I’ve been ill and it was a wintry –snowy even– weekend, so we had to go for a proper comforting wintry pudding:
- Jumbleberry Crumble
Individual portions of crumble, made with frozen summer fruits (much cheaper in Somerfield than in Waitrose, let me tell you!) and home-made crumble kept in the freezer. These were easy peasy to make up, quick to cook, and, unlike last week’s pudding looked beautiful and appetising at service.
With a little forward planning you could have a bag of the crumble stashed in the freezer along side a bag of fruit….mix the fruit with a little cornflour and maybe sugar, top with crumble, bake for a bit and hey presto it’s a proper grown up, like mum made, pudding!
We had ours with ice cream and tea and honestly, my only complaint would be that there weren’t any left overs. Yum!
That looks divine!
Hi Baby,
that does look up to the mark. What does the cornflour add?
Well, according to Matt who we had over for pudding that night, the cornflour helps makes the juices from the fruit turn into a proper sauce and prevents undue bubbling up through the crumble layer. This sounded convincing enough that we weren’t willing to call ‘Bullshit!’ on him :-)
Hello.
Any chance of you providing the exact recipe.
I would be so grateful.
Thank you
