Christmas Pudding

[BelleandBeast]

I'm in dire need of Christmas Pudding and I've eaten the last of my stash. Regretting not buying more. Is there anywhere that still has Christmas Pudding?

How come you can get Hot Cross Buns all year but not Christmas Pudding??? I just love it.

Make your own? It takes time but is easy.

Delia's recipe is lovely and they keep well so you could make enough to last all year!

Aldi still had some this week in their special buy markdowns.

Otherwise yy Delia recipe.

Aldi Xmas pudding was lush 👌

There were also lots of posh chocolates, crackers/cheese straws/savoury snacks, panettone etc as well as Christmas ornaments and napkins and so on.

I had to zoom past to avoid buying ALL THE THINGS.

It never occurred to me to make my own.... I'll have a look at that recipe. I'm also heading for Aldi tomorrow, thank you @MrsHathaway!

If anybody spots any elsewhere, please let me know. I've emailed Sainsburys too. I'm having dry January so got to have some treats!

It's honestly dead easy. I don't even steam it for hours ... I microwave it. So it's done start to finish in about 15 minutes.

And if you prefer currants/hate peel/like more booze in it you can make sure it's exactly right.

Agghh panettone! I'm low carbing!

I always keep one over for mid summer. I'm crackers like that. 😂

Seriously - make your own. I did for the first time this year and my SiL who is a Christmas Pudding Addict! said it was better than Harrods pud! I used this recipe and it was really easy. I'm planning on making some more but I'm going to make little individual ones.
