An Old-Fashioned Pudding Recipe from The West Country
A fabulous autumn dessert, this recipe for Apple In and Out (Baked Suet Apple Pudding) is extremely easy to make.
With only four main ingredients, this apple recipe is also an egg-free and a dairy-free pudding, when using vegetarian suet.
Thought to orginiate from the English county of Devon, I have seen recipes in old cookbooks from most of The West Country.
I used Bramley apples in my recipe, but any cooking apples will work with this easy country recipe, or even green eating apples.
What this recipe for Apple In and Out (Baked Suet Apple Pudding) lacks in looks, is more than made up for in taste.
Serve this with clotted cream, for a real West Country combination, or with lashings of creamy custard on a cold winter’s day.
The original recipe that I found in a little Salmon recipe book, suggested baking this on a pie dish, which I did.
However, you WILL need to sit the pie dish on a baking tray, as the vegetarian suet runs out of the pudding when baking.
There is no oven temperature either, so I used my default oven setting of 180C/350F/Gas mark 4, and baked it for 45 minutes.
This is a very rustic pudding recipe, so don’t expect a light sponge type texture. It’s more of a baked suet pudding crumb, with the apples being as the title says, “in and out”!
