This warming pudding is perfect comfort food for when the nights start to draw in
Method
- Preheat the oven to 180C/Gas 4. Out the chopped fruit into a deep pie dish. Mix in the blueberries, sugar and apple juice.
- To make the topping, put the flour, sugar, baking powder and butter in a food processor. Process until it resembles breadcrumbs. Add the buttermilk and process until the dough comes together.
- On a floured surface, press the dough out with your hands and cut out 7 circles about 7.5 cm in diameter and arrange them on top of the fruit.
- Mix together the nuts, spices and brown sugar and sprinkle over the top.
- Bake in the oven for 40 minutes until the top is golden and the fruit tender. If the crust bakes before the fruit is ready, cover with foil and continue to cook. Serve with cream or custard.
