My Mother's Christmas Pudding Recipe ...You make it a year ahead of time ...a wonderful thing to make in the New Year months ..

Picture
Happy New Year Everyone 
Now is a great time to be thinking of the coming Christmas and as my Mother used to do every January she would make 4 Christmas Puddings ...and let them mature throughout the year ...they were just the most wonderful puddings you will ever eat 

Picture
Our dear Mother died in 2001 and I am left with lots of her handwritten recipes that she made time and time again.
I thought I would share this one with you.

Picture
As most of you will know I am British and live in Alabama, USA ...but of course I grew up on the British island of Guernsey .
So this recipe is totally British 
You may have to make a few adjustments to suit an American recipe 
One of the fruits we call 'Sultanas' ...they are called 'Golden Raisins' in America 
'Currants' are dried 'Black Currants' ..I believe that Publix and Whole Foods stock them 
They are also available on Amazon.com
Picture
An English pound weight is different to an American one as well as the liquid measurements so just look it up on google and there will charts for you to change it to American.
The 'Stout' my Mum would have used was 'Guinness' but a 'Newcastle' one will be fine.

Mum would use these old fashioned pottery pudding bowls and would place a circle of 'grease proof' paper on the top of the pudding ...but you can use 'waxed' or 'Parchment'

Please let us know in the 'comments' if you make them and how you liked the recipe.

If you have any questions again ask them in the 'comments' and I will try to answer them if I can 

Happy Baking 

Happy Days
