Ingredients
Gather these essentials before you start:
1 cup of plain flour
1 cup of breadcrumbs
1 cup of mixed dried fruit
½ cup of brown sugar
1 teaspoon of mixed spice
1 teaspoon of bicarbonate soda
1 cup of milk
1 tablespoon of golden syrup
1 egg, lightly beaten
Butter, for greasing
Rum or brandy, for serving (optional)
Directions:
In a large mixing bowl, combine the flour, breadcrumbs, dried fruit, brown sugar, and mixed spice. Give it a good stir to evenly distribute the ingredients.
In a separate bowl, mix together the bicarbonate soda, milk, golden syrup, and egg. Once combined, pour the mixture into the dry ingredients and mix until well combined.
Grease a pudding basin with butter and place the mixture into it. Cover with a layer of buttered baking paper, then a layer of foil, and tie securely with string.
Place the basin in a large saucepan and fill with enough boiling water to reach halfway up the basin. Cover with a lid and let it simmer for 3-4 hours, topping up the water when needed.
Once done, carefully remove the basin from the saucepan and let it cool for 10 minutes before removing the foil and baking paper.
Turn the pudding out onto a plate and serve with your choice of rum or brandy. You can also store the pudding in an airtight container for up to 3 months, reheating it in the same manner as before.
