Ingredients
  

  • 700 g stewed apples - about 1kg whole apples - cooking are best
  • 170 g fresh gluten-free bread crumbs - I use the crusts and grind them into crumbs in my food processor
  • 80 g demerara sugar
  • 60 g butter - you could use coconut oil here if you want it dairy free
  • Juice of half a lemon
  • Sugar to taste

Instructions
 

  • Mix the breadcrumbs with the sugar and fry over a medium heat in a frying pan with the butter or coconut oil until nice and crispy (but not burnt! Keep an eye on them).
  • Meanwhile, add the lemon juice and as much sugar as you like to the stewed apples. (I try to not add any sugar and let the sweetness come from the rest of the pudding).
  • Once the breadcrumb mixture is ready, place alternate layers of fried breadcrumbs and stewed apples into a glass.
  • If you can wait, chill and serve with cream (clotted would be good here!!). Otherwise tuck in while it is still warm...perhaps with some ice cream!
