Step 1

Preheat the oven to 180°C/360°F/Gas Mark 4 and grease an ovenproof dish.

Step 2

To make the stewed fruit, melt the butter in a large frying pan and add the fruit. Cook for five minutes until caramelised. Pour the fruit into the prepared dish.

TOP TIP

Feeling adventurous? Why not try nectarines instead of plums to jazz up your pudding?

Step 3

To make the sauce, add the Tate & Lyle Light Soft Brown Sugar to the cream in medium saucepan and stir over a medium heat until the sugar has dissolved. Pour over the cooked fruit.

Step 4

For the sponge, whisk the eggs, Tate & Lyle Caster Sugar and vanilla extract with an electric whisk until fluffy. Fold in the two flours, then the water and butter. Pour overthe fruit and sauce.

Step 5

Bake in the oven for 40 minutes until golden. Dust with icing sugar and serve.
