Xmas day pudding to suit all?

[TinselToed]

Hi - I need to make a dessert for Xmas dinner that doesn't contain the following things that people won't eat-

Cream
Peel or raisins
Meringue
Nuts
Alcohol

🤦🏻‍♀️ any suggestions or links to recipes you'd recommend??

Many thanks!

Sticky toffee pudding

Cheesecake

apple or other fruit crumble?

lemon tart

Chocolate cheesecake https://www.bbc.co.uk/food/recipes/chocolatedigestivee_43476

I make Jamie Oliver panettone bread and butter pudding. It's delicious. You can make with plain panettone to avoid the fruit.

Sorry I should have said no cheesecake either- what is wrong with these people I am cooking for, I love a cheesecake!

Nigella’s caramelised oranges
Steamed ginger pud
Nigella’s Yule Log

I have a fussy family so I get it!

Could you offer couple of options?

Sponge pudding? Chocolate torte? Chocolate log?

Chocolate brownies or other chocolate e.g. Yule log. Or a steamed syrup sponge pudding.

Yule log fits the bill if you fill it with jam or buttercream rather than whipped cream.

Trifle, ginger cake, chocolate cake with coffee icing, chocolate truffle cake, brownies, festive decorated cupcakes, apple pie (a nice easy pillow style one using a sheet of ready roll puff pastry folded in half)

Apple Crumble (or whatever fruit you like)
Yule log
Lemon tart

Just coffee/tea/port/sherry with some biscuits or chocolates

Yule log/buche de noel filled with choc ganache and fresh raspberries. Can of squirt cream for those that wish to add it

Chocolate Yule Log.

You could easily miss the raisins out if this

Sticky toffee pudding contains cream (but I will eat it happily, and don't like cream) so be careful with that.

Poached pears not in red wine. Here for example

And cream adverse people don't pour on cream(or have icecream??)

Uh wow...I think I'd request that everyone bring their own.

Or do 3 different easy ones that don't overlap on too many issues so there's hopefully something for everyone.

If I were hosting and this were actually a problem I was having to deal with I think I'd skip pudding all together, do a cheese board after dinner and then a selection of petit fours with coffee.

Nigellas Ice Cream Cake - it's lovely, bonus it's also v easy to make ahead of time.

Is the no peel thing due to preservatives in dried peel? (An aunt used to get dreadful diarrhoea from the preservatives in dried fruit).

Can the person eat oranges? If so, this recipe is moist and also gluten free. Delicious with a chocolate sauce:

These are all great suggestions, I'm off to google them.

There will be cheese as well - at least everyone (bar one)) eats that!!!

Another idea. I'm making this tonight, but adding some apples too. I asked on another thread about desserts and this was recommended. You could add some Christmassy type spices too.

Some sort of festive jelly wreath.

I'd uninvite them OP and make a booze soaked trifle.

Vienetta 😂

Traditional trifle, no alcohol.

Individual chocolate fondant. With cream except for the cream avoider.

Black Forest trifle, serve cream separately for those who want it.

Tropical fruit salad, mangoes papaya pineapple etc, serve with little biscuits and cream separately.

You could also offer affogato for the odd one who didn't like what you had made.

Are the reasons due to allergies/dietary reasons, or just that they don't like that item?
