75g Dried Mixed Fruit
250g Ricotta Cheese
3 Eggs (yolks only)
50g Caster Sugar
1 Teaspoon Cinnamon Powder
2 Oranges (zest only)
Butter (for greasing only)
Creme Fraiche (optional, for serving)
Equipment
4 Ramekins (or pudding dishes, they make a nice shaped pudding)
1 Bowl (half filled with warm tap water)
1 Balloon Whisk
1 Large mixing Bowl
1 Sieve
1 Zester
The Good Bit
- Preheat your oven 180c 350f gas 4, soak your dried fruit in the warm water for 10 minutes and grease your ramekins/pudding dishes with the butter.
- Whisk your egg yolk, cinnamon, ricotta cheese and half your orange zest together, drain the fruit and stir this into the ricotta mixture, spoon into your ramekins/pudding dishes.
- Bake for 15 minutes, the pudding should be firm but not golden (give them a little shake to test) Decorate with the remaining orange zest and serve. You can also serve chilled and a good dollop of creme fraiche goes really well this.
