Method

  1. Combine all the dry ingredients and wet ingredients in 2 separate bowls
  2. Mix together, adding the beaten egg, until all the ingredients are well combined.
  3. Pour the mixture into a 1 litre (2lb) pudding basin or glass bowl and cover with aluminium foil if steaming (not if micro waving).
  4. Place in a steamer, cover and cook for 3 hours. For microwave cooking, after filling the basin, cover with an upturned plate and microwave on high power for 5 minutes. Leave to stand for 5 minutes, then microwave for a further 5 minutes
  5. To reheat, steam for 1-2 hours or microwave for 10 minutes
  6. When cooked, run a knife around the edge of the basin, turn out onto a serving plate and drizzle with brandy or rum.

    Lovely easy recipe! Made this a couple of times now and its so moist and tastey. I always steam it not microwave and I think its worth the extra time. Scrummy!

    This is by far the best Christmas Pudding I have ever made. I steamed it rather than microwave it to keep it moist. This is full of flavour without that claggy feeling in the mouth left by suet. This will be the recipe I use every year from now.
