This is a great recipe. I did reduce the 1 tablespoon nutmeg to 1/2 tablespoon. I couldn't find mixed fruit, so used golden raisins and currants. I've already made it twice in 2 days - it disappears so quickly.

Darvulya, Plum pudding, or christmas pudding as we brits call it is made from Suet and is steamed. This recipe IS the British Bread pudding that we all grew up on, smells and tastes fantastic. I also used left over cake (i carve and make Birthday cakes) If you are looking for that great stodgy heart warming dish you grew up on, bake this, sprinkle some sugar on top, grab a cuppa and enjoy. Thanks for taking the time to list this for us all to enjoy!!!

This is the real bread pudding that my pommy mum makes - all the other connotations that i noticed in my mind are bread and butter puddings Dad used to call this the good stodge and was what I grew up on with alot of siblings and was a great desert to use up stale bread (which didnt happen often lol) Excellent - I leave out the peal though cant stand it.

This isn't bread pudding. It's plum pudding. If you were looking for bread pudding, this isn't it.

This was a really great base. I made 1/4 plain, 1/4 with raisins, and 1/2 with frozen cranberries. My favorite was with raisins. It would be great with apples and an increased amount of cinnamon. I only used 1/2 teaspoon of Nutmeg and it was almost too potent, I can't imagine what it would be like if the recommended 1T was used. I also added an extra egg. Compared to all the other recipes, this looked like the quickest recipe. My friend loved it. So great recipe in great time. Thanks for sharing!

this is a very versatile recipe, because I changed a lot of things (used leftover bagels for one, and added yogurt) and it still turned out very well. I would recommend it!

Very good! I added some chopped nuts and served it with vanilla sauce.

If you have any of this pudding left over. When cold, cut into thick slices, melt butter in skillet and fry the slices until golden borwn and sprinkle with Demerara sugar. Serve with whipped cream or ice vanilla ice-cream.
