Christmas pudding (Countdown)

Ingredients

½ cup milk
1 tsp baking soda
1 over-ripe banana, mashed
2 cups fresh gluten free breadcrumbs
2 cups mixed dried fruit
½ tsp ground ginger
½ tsp cinnamon
Store-bought gluten free custard, to serve
Mint leaves, to garnish

Directions

  1. Lightly grease a 5-cup capacity pudding basin.
  2. Combine the milk and baking soda in a medium-sized bowl. Add the banana and mix through.
  3. In a separate, large bowl, combine the breadcrumbs, fruit, spices and banana mixture. Mix well.
  4. Spoon the mixture into the prepared pudding basin. Cover the top with baking paper and foil, secure with some string or a lid.
  5. Place the basin in a large saucepan with enough boiling water to come halfway up the side of the basin. Boil, covered, for 2 hours. Replenish with boiling water as necessary during cooking to maintain the water level.
  6. Remove the pudding from the basin and serve with warm custard.
