Do you give your kids puddings? I do, most days but am running out of ideas...yummy, easy ones please!

[PoorOldEnid]

I like to give them a pudding, they are like rakes and if they are homemade puds I don't feel bad about it.

I do:
apple sponge
apple crumble
fruit salad
honey yogurt
ice cream (once every couple of weeks)

but have run out of ideas.

Mine loves lemon drizzle cake with custard

jam roly poly?
cheesecake?
crumble with something different in it?
angel whirl every now & again wouldn't be too bad I don't think

[mackerel]

baked apples stuffed with raisins and brown sugar with icecream
chocolate brioche bread and butter pudding - slice up a loaf of brioche, spread with nutella and pour a milk, cream and egg mix on and bake. VV yummy and a fave but obv. not a low cal option|!
Golden syrup sponge

[PoorOldEnid]

mmm jam roly poly



do you mean angel delight?

mine dont like it

even the butterscotch flavour

how can that be, they are not my children

[PoorOldEnid]

baked apples! genius

[MrsBadger]

cheat by making normal cakes and serving with custard

there are more cake recipes out there than 'pudding' ones IME

[MrsMattie]

DS is a fruit monster and has chopped up fruit, fruit salad, or yoghurt & honey most days.

He also likes custard, rice pudding, crumble and any type of cake as a treat (he is also a cake monster, like his mumma!).

I hadn't thought of baked apple. Bet he'll love that - might make it today!

[MrsMattie]

Oh, and ice cream! He loves Banana Splits and ice cream floats.

[MrsBadger]

oh and milk jelly

and jelly mousse (whip tin of evaoprated milk, fold in nearly-set jelly made with 1/2 normal vol of water)

[Megglevache]

I make a really yummy coconut rice pudding is so sweet and stodgy with a plop of St Dalfour raspberry jam. I make it to try and get some weight on ds
Banoffe pie goes down well in this house too (I make up the caramel separately and store in the fridge) crush some biscuits with a bit of butter/caramel/creamy stuff of choice and bananas.

Pancakes again using the caramel and bananas goes quickly in this house.

Tinned pineapple with crunchy breadcrumbs (crumble mixture with a couple of hobnobs crused)

Mousse
I make with crushed tinned pineapple, double cream and lemon jelly (leave to set for a few house) and top with chocolate curls (ds's job)

Not very exciting but does the trick chez Megs.

[hotcrossbunny]

Baked bananas?
Fruit kebabs with chocolate sauce
Stewed fruit and custard
Meringues
Pancakes

Will keep thinking

[PoorOldEnid]

yy I guess I can just make cakes

but then I eat them

[Megglevache]

Yumm.

[SaintGeorge]

Spotted Dick and custard.

I love stodge.

[SheSellsSeashellsByTheSeashore]

not often but when i do give them it its:

home made cheesecake
apple pie and custard
banana and custard
fruit crumble with cream or custard
angel delight
ice cream
pancakes
rice pudding
flapjacks

[Furball]

how do you do baked bananas?

[PoorOldEnid]

pancakes of course!

[MrsMattie]

Ooh, DS loves baked bananas with chocolatey things in them. I split a banana down the middle, bung Maltesers/chocolate buttons / whatever in the middle, then wrap tightly in foil and bung in oven for 15 mins or so. Lovely with ice cream.

Pancakes is a good one, yes@hotcrossbunny

[Megglevache]

I nearly forgot if you make the coconut rice pudding with ground rice instead of pudding rice and use double cream also I put it in the freezer for a hour or so and hey presto, coconut ice cream

[MadameCastafiore]

Ice Cream
Gu Chocolate Pots (if they have been very good!)
Pancakes
Strawberries and Cream or Yogurt
Jam Roly Poly & Custard
Pot of Custard
Pot of Stewed Fruit

Most days they don't get pudding though - don't want them having bloody expectations!

[hotcrossbunny]

Can either bake bananas in their skins with chocolate(YUM) or slice them into ovenproof dish, dot lumps of butter over, scatter some brown sugar over the top with a pinch of cinnamon and put in oven for 20 mins. They go sticky and caramelly and gorgeous. We love them with ice cream or greek yoghurt

Am going to keep this thread for future reference. We love puddings in the hotcross house!

[hannahsaunt]

Nigella Express chocolate pear pudding thing - fabulous. Serve with custard or ice cream or chocolate sauce (or all 3?). Takes 5 mins to whizz together.

[Seeline]

Only have 'posh' puddings at the weekend, otherwise it's standard yogurts/fromage frais type things, or fruit in some form (fresh, pureed pots or smoothy things). Weekends usually involve some form of fruit crumble, fruit flans, cheesecakes or - the kids favourite - trifle!

[Megglevache]

that choc pear thing looks amazing.

[Boyswillbeboys]

Greek yoghurt, honey and banana v.popular here.

I like to give them puddings but am a rubbish cook so it tends to be cooked fruit and custard/yoghurt
