Seasonal local food recipes No.246 – Crusty apple pudding
This is an old family recipe – much loved and much used, I think it probably came off the side of a porage oats box many years ago.
Serves 4
Preparation time: 15-20 mins
Cooking time: 30-40 mins
Ingredients
100g porage oats
100g butter
75g sugar
4 medium apples, peeled and thinly sliced
for decoration:
1 apple, peeled, cored and quartered
golden syrup
Method
Melt the butter and sugar then mix in the oats. Fill a greased 2 litre baking dish with alternate layers of sliced apple and oat mixture, finishing with a layer of oats. Thinly slice the apple quarters and arrange on top of the dish and glaze with the golden syrup. Bake in the oven Gas Mark 4/180°C for 30-40 minutes until golden brown. Serve with pouring cream or custard.
