Ingredients

  • 100 g butter softened, plus extra to grease
  • 100 g cranberry sauce ready-made
  • 2 tbsp golden syrup
  • 100 g sugar dark brown soft
  • 2 eggs medium, beaten
  • 100 g plain flour
  • 1 tbsp mixed spice heaped
  • 300 g dried fruit mixed
  • 1 apple medium size, peeled and grated

DISCLAIMER

I recommend using the Metric measurements (instead of cups & spoons) for more accuracy and better results.

Instructions

  • Grease a 1.2 litre (2¼ pint) pudding basin. In a small bowl, stir together cranberry sauce and golden syrup. Spoon two-thirds of the mixture into the base of the prepared basin, reserving the remaining mixture.
  • In a separate bowl, beat together the butter, sugar, eggs, flour, mixed spice, dried fruit and grated apple until well combined. Spoon the mixture into the prepared basin and press a large piece of parchment paper on to the pudding to cover the surface.
  • Microwave on medium power for 9min until firm to the touch. Leave to stand for 10min before turning out on to a plate. Spoon over reserved cranberry mixture and serve immediately with whatever sauce you prefer (Cream, Custard, Brandy Butter, etc.).
