This is one of my favourite puddings (Desserts to those who don't have pudding after a meal) :-) There is a little town in the Peak District of England, called Bakewell, and there are a number of shops that still make this wonderful sweet treat. Read more . Oh to go in and sit and order one of these with a pot of hot tea and ice cream, I don't do the cream or custard, but that is just to my taste... it's a wonderful afternoon treat. But the Bakewell pudding is YUM anytime. Super easy to make. Enjoy! And if you’re ever in Bakewell, stop into Bloomer’s for afternoon tea. I am going to miss that place when we move back to the states, so I am happy to have the recipe so I can make some there. Ingredients:
6-8oz puff pastry |
4-6oz sieved strawberry jam |
4oz castor sugar |
6 egg yolks |
3oz unsalted butter |
4oz ground almonds |
a touch of almond extract |
Directions:
1. Roll out the puff pastry, line a shallow pie dish with the pastry and prick the base with a fork.
2. Cover the base with the Jam.
3. Add the sugar, egg yolks, ground almonds and almond extract together in a bowl and beat by hand to mix.
4. Melt butter in a small pan on low heat and add this to the sugar mixture to achieve a smooth batter mixture.
5. Pour this filling over the jam
6. Bake at 300F, 175C, or gas mark 5 for about 30 mins or until golden brown
7. Serve warm with fresh cream or ice cream.
