Recipe tips
  • You can use any sized bun tin, just adjust the cooking time accordingly, as larger buns will take longer to cook.
  • These small puddings cook much more quickly and you don't need to steam them, making them ideal for pre-Christmas parties, too.
  • Try topping with nuts or orange slices for super-luxury puddings.
  • Freezing instructions: Defrost in the microwave then steam, microwave, or heat in a moderate oven.
