7-CUP STEAMED CHRISTMAS PUDDING WITH BUTTERSCOTCH SAUCE



7-Cup Steamed Christmas Pudding With Butterscotch Sauce image

An easy and VERY light Christmas pudding - for those that dislike the heavy dark puddings. However, this still has all the traditional Christmas pudding ingredients, but it is served with a delicious butterscotch sauce for a decadent twist! Moreover, all the family can now have their pudding and eat it, as this appeals to all ages! Steaming a pudding is SO easy - you just pop it on to gently steam, whilst you prepare the rest of the festive meal. You only have to remember to keep topping up the water from time to time. Serve warm with the hot butterscotch sauce and maybe a jug of single cream or brandy custard to help it along! Merry Christmas! N.B. This recipe was taken from the Christmas 2003 edition of BBC Good Food magazine, I have amended it slightly to personal taste. I have made this pudding every year since I first saw the recipe, and I have given this recipe out countless times!

Time 2h15m

Yield 1 Large Pudding, 8-10 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 16

1 cup raisins
1 cup sultana
1 cup self-raising flour
1 cup finely grated butter (about 115g/4oz)
1 cup fresh brown breadcrumbs (from around 4 thick slices of bread)
1 cup light muscovado sugar
1 cup mixed nuts, chopped plus extra to decorate
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1 teaspoon ground mixed spice
1 cup milk
1 large egg
butter, for greasing
85 g butter
100 g light muscovado sugar
200 ml double cream
1 teaspoon vanilla extract

Steps:

  • For the pudding, empty the first six cups and the nuts, if using, into a mixing bowl with the spices, then stir in the milk and egg. Once well combined, tip into a buttered 1.5 litre pudding bowl.
  • Cover with a double layer of buttered foil, making a pleat in the centre to allow the pudding to rise.
  • Tie the foil securely with string, then place in a steamer or large pan containing enough gently simmering water to come halfway up the sides of the bowl. Steam, covered with a lid, for 2 to 2 1/2 hours.
  • Check the water level during cooking, topping up if necessary.
  • If you are preparing this pudding ahead, remove the foil, let it cool slightly, then wrap in cling film and then fresh foil. It can be stored in a fridge for up to one week ahead of time. Or, freeze it for up to one month. Defrost overnight.
  • If you are serving it immediately, unwrap and invert onto a deep plate.
  • For the sauce, put everything in a pan and bring slowly to the boil, stirring. Allow to bubble away for 2-3 minutes, still stirring, until the sugar has dissolved and the sauce is pale caramel in colour and slightly thickened.
  • Remove from the heat. Pour the sauce over the pudding and decorate with the whole mixed nuts.
  • Serve with a jug of fresh cream or brandy custard.

Time 1h10m

Yield 1 loaf, 6-8 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 12

5 tablespoons butter, softened
1 cup all-purpose flour
1 1/2 teaspoons baking powder
1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1/4 teaspoon salt
2/3 cup sugar
2 eggs, lightly beaten
1/4 cup milk
1/4 cup water
1 teaspoon finely grated orange peel
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1 cup good quality orange marmalade

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 350. Using a pastry brush, coat the bottom and sides of a loaf pan with 1 tbsp of the softened butter. Sift the flour, baking powder, cinnamon, and salt into a small bowl and set aside.
  • In a large bowl, cream the remaining 4 tbsp of butter and sugar together. Add the eggs and mix well. Add the flour mixture, orange peel, vanilla, milk and water and stir until the batter is smooth.
  • Stirring constantly, melt the marmalade over low heat in a small pan; then pour it into the loaf pan. Pour in the batter, and bake in the middle of the oven for 40 to 50 minutes, or until a toothpick comes out clean.
  • Cool the pudding in the pan for 10 minutes. Run a knife along the outside edge of the pan and invert onto a serving platter. Serve warm.
