Plum And Almond Pudding Recipes

Steps:

• Sift together the flour, salt, baking soda and spices. Mix together the rest of the ingredients, except the egg whites, adding just the yolks. Whip the egg whites until stiff and fold into the batter. Grease a pudding mold dredged with sugar and pour in batter. Cover the mold with its lid or cover tightly with foil. Steam for 3 to 4 hours, depending on the size of your mold. Serve hot with hard sauce. If you are not serving the pudding immediately, store in the refrigerator soaking in 1 ounce of brandy. Add 1 ounce each week.
• Serve with warmed Hard Sauce.
• Cream the butter in an electric mixer until pale in color. Add the sugar and mix well. Add the flavorings and mix in then adjust, to taste.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 400°F. Butter a 2-qt. baking dish, then dust with granulated sugar. Arrange plums in dish.
• Pulse eggs and remaining 3/4 cup granulated sugar in a food processor to combine. With the motor running, stream in half-and-half, anise liqueur, if using, and vanilla. Add flour and salt and pulse to combine. Let custard sit 10 minutes, then pour over plums.
• Bake pudding 15 minutes, then reduce oven temperature to 350°F and continue to bake until custard is golden and set, 20-25 minutes longer. Let cool slightly, then dust with powdered sugar.

Steps:

• Heat oven to 180C/fan 160C/gas 4. Butter and line a 20 x 30cm baking tin with baking paper. Put the butter, sugar and ground almonds into a food processor, then pulse until the mixture resembles very rough breadcrumbs. Spoon out half the mix into a bowl and set aside.
• Add 140g flour into the mix in the processor and whizz until it just forms a dough. Tip into the tin and press down with the back of a spoon. Bake for 15-20 mins until golden. Leave to cool for 10 mins.
• To make the filling, put the remaining butter and the sugar and almond mix back into the processor, saving a few tbsp for the topping. Add the eggs, the 25g flour, cinnamon and baking powder and whizz to a soft batter. Spread over the base.
• Top with the plum pieces and a little extra caster sugar and cinnamon. Bake for 20 mins, then sprinkle with the remaining crumble mix and flaked almonds. Cook for another 20 mins or until golden. Leave to cool in the tin before slicing.

Steps:

• Heat the oven to 350 degrees F.
• Toss the plums, cinnamon, lemon zest and brandy together in a bowl, then leave to macerate while you make the batter.
• Cream the butter and sugar with an electric mixer until pale and fluffy.
• Add the eggs one at a time, then tip in the flour and ground almonds.
• Mix until completely combined.
• Tip the fruit into a buttered shallow baking dish, spoon over the cake batter, then sprinkle with the flaked almonds.
• Bake for 35 to 40 minutes until browned and cooked through.
• Test if the pudding is ready by inserting a skewer.
• If it comes out clean, the pudding is ready; if not, give the pudding a few more minutes.
• Remove from the oven and serve warm with whipped cream or vanilla ice cream.

Steps:

• Combine oats, 3/4 cup each almond milk and water, and salt in a saucepan. Bring to a boil; reduce heat. Simmer until oats are tender, about 4 minutes. Transfer to a bowl; let cool slightly. Stir in remaining 1/4 cup almond milk and 1 teaspoon maple syrup; chill overnight.
• Toss plum, remaining 1 teaspoon maple syrup, and cinnamon in a bowl. Let stand 5 minutes. Serve oatmeal topped with fruit and accumulated juices.
