Christmas pudd. Lowcarb Of course !



Ingredients:
100 grams ground almond flour
1 teaspoon baking powder
2 large eggs
1 tablespoon of melted butter
2 tablespoons of double cream
100 grams of lowcarb thawed frozen fruits. Blueberries, blackcurrants and strawberries.
60 grams of 90-95% cocoa dark chocolate
Two tea spoons of cocoa powder
One large shot of brandy
A handful of almond flakes and broken walnuts
Extra thick cream

Method:
Mix all dry ingredients in a bowl.
Melt the butter, I use a Pyrex jug, add the eggs, cream, and fruit. Add the dry ingredients and mix. Pour into a medium size Pyrex mixing bowl. Microwave in a 700watt for 5 minutes. Turn out upside-down onto five layers of kitchen paper on a flat plate. Zap in micro-wave for a further two minutes. Melt the chocolate in a heat proof bowl standing in a saucepan of boiling water. Pour over pudding and serve with a scoop of extra thick cream. Serves four.

    Just what I need xmas dinner is no problem, the pudding looks ideal for afters followed by a nice glass of cognac of course.

    The brandy certainly enhances the flavour, you could also use rum.

    Hi, i am wanting to try this out this christmas, but am not sure when I should put in the brandy? And also do you cover the pudding while microwaving or not? Thanks!

    Add the brandy when mixing it does not matter when. And no cover while microwaving.
