This recipe is taken from The Dairy Book of Home Cooking, one of my go to cook books. I have excluded the sugar from the original recipe as my raspberries did not require any additional sweetening.

ReplyDeleteOh what a wonderfully simple recipe, I hate to see all that added sugar to puds like this which are already naturally sweet enough. Thanks so much for entering your recipe to September's Four Seasons Food 'Getting Fruity' challenge, and my apologies in only getting around to reading your post now, I'm sooooo behind!
