    Down
  • 65g Glutafin Gluten Free Select Multipurpose White Mix
    50g dates
    50g each of sultanas, currants and raisins
    50g glazed chopped cherries
    1 grated pear
    2 tbsp black treacle
    4 tbsp Irish whiskey
    25g soft brown sugar
    85g chopped dark chocolate
    25g cocoa powder
    A beaten egg

    Additional Equipment

    Baking parchment or greaseproof paper
    Pudding basin
    String

  • Method

    Down
  • 1. Mix the dried fruit (dates, sultanas, currants, raisins, grated pear and cherries) with the treacle and whiskey together and leave overnight or for at least 4 hours.

    2. Mix all the remaining dry ingredients together.

    3. Add the egg to the fruit mixture and mix well.

    4. Combine the two mixes, and mix through.

    5. Place in a greased and lined (parchment on the bottom only) pudding basin 13 cm diameter and 7 cm deep.

    6. Put a circle of pleated greaseproof paper and foil over the top and tie securely with string.

    7. Make a string handle from one side of the basin to the other – making it easier to pick the basin out of the pan after cooking.

    8. Either place in the oven for 4-5 hours or steam for 3.5 hours at 150°C / 130°C fan.
