A recipe from Dr Sue Shepherd's cookbook "The Gluten-free Kitchen". Just lover her recipes. SUe Shepherd is an Advanced Accredited Practicing Dietician who herslef has Coeliac/Celiac Disease. She is recognised and works with the Australian Coeliac Society. I think you could swap a bean flour with the soy flour if you need to Preparation time does not include overnight maceration of the dried fruits

Time 3h30m

Yield 1 christmas pudding, 10-12 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 14

1 cup sultana
3/4 cup raisins
1/2 cup craisins
1 cup glace cherries, chopped
1/2 cup brandy
65 g fine rice flour
35 g cornstarch
20 g debittered soy flour or 20 g bean flour
60 g butter
1 cup brown sugar
2 cups fresh gluten-free breadcrumbs
1 teaspoon mixed spice or 1 teaspoon pumpkin spice
3 eggs
1/2 cup low-fat milk

Steps:

  • Grease and line a 1 litre pudding basin with baking paper.
  • Add the dried fruits and brandy to a large mixing bowl. Cover and refrigerate overnight.
  • Add the three flours to a mixing bowl and mix with a whisk to ensure they are well combined. Rub in the butter until the mixture resembles fine breadcrumbs. Add the soaked fruits, sugar, breadcrumbs and spice. Mix well to combine.
  • In a small bowl, lightly beat the eggs and milk. Add to the fruit mixture and mix to combine.
  • Pour the mixture into the pudding basin. Place the pudding basin in a large stockpot. Pour in enough water to the pot to come 3/4 of the way up the side of the pudding basin.
  • Bring the water to the boil, then reduce heat to a gentle simmer and cook the pudding for 2 to 3 hours. Check the water regularly to ensure it does not run dry.
  • If making ahead, the pudding may be resteamed for 1 hour on the day of serving. I've generally found also that a cook ahead pudding can be sliced and individual serves warmed in the microwave.

This pudding is a bit too sweet for my taste, but it's still very good.

I'm not a fan of the texture of this pudding. It's a bit too dense for my taste.

I'm not sure if I did something wrong, but my pudding came out really dark. It still tasted good, though.

I followed the recipe exactly, but my pudding turned out too runny. I'm not sure what went wrong.

This pudding was a bit of a disappointment. It was dry and crumbly, and the flavor was bland.

I'm not a big fan of Christmas pudding, but I thought this one was pretty good. It was moist and flavorful, and the gluten-free flour didn't make it too dense.

I love that this recipe uses dried fruit instead of candied fruit. It gives the pudding a more natural flavor.
