Favorite English pudding?

.....Well, that crumble-part has enough butter in it to clog the arteries of an elephant if you made it right as per the local tastes.

We have a crumble season when the gooseberries and red and black currents come in. Some market-apples and some of the rhubarb taking over the world down by the stream and we're good for maybe a home-grown crumble a week until the blackberries kick in in September.

I love malt loaf! Wouldn't touch the stuff at first. Now I'm truly addicted.
I'd count it as a pud. It's sweet and oh so good!!!!

Have you tried it toasted.......with butter...............omg drool!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Sticky toffee - and I love Nigella's recipe for the baked sticky toffee pudding.  Yum....

Not exactly English, but they do carry it here at Tesco's and it is the best.
Tiramusu family portion for less than 2 quid.
It's just as good if not better than restaurant quality. 

Bread & butter pudding!! My absolute fave.

At my work's canteen, they do a bread & butter pudding which also has a ribbon of white chocolate running through it, and a whisky (probably more of a Drambuie) glaze on the top.... then drowned in hot custard.

I think it's GORG!!!   But of course, it's a Scottish pudding, not an 'English' one. 

bread and butter pudding, hands down

no raisins though! i pick them out!

I eat them, but i'd prefer it if they weren't in there...

Delia's sticky toffee pudding is sublime.

Am very anti custard though. It is vile.

I like cold custard and my fav is the gold pint container from M&S........lovely.......

So...if the London contingent are doing this picnic thing, should I bring apple pie and a thermos of hot custard?  My crumble is better than my pie but it won't quite work cold.  Decisons, decisions....

How sad.. I can't for the life of me think of my favorite! I have never had bread and butter pudding, I don't like custard, I don't mind sponge cake, but I don't really have a favorite. Must work on that 

One thing I found last visit that I really like, was flapjack. I don't know if it's considered pudding really, but I loved that! It has to be the kind that comes in the tin pan though. I tried one that came in bars, similar to granola bars, and was not a fan!

I like some raisins in mine, but just a handful. I was once feeling lazy, so I bought a Tesco's Finest bread & butter pudding. It was lovely except for the fact that they added about 3 cups of raisins!!

Mmmm... a whisky glaze! That sounds wonderful!!

I make Delia's marmalade bread & butter pudding recipe. It's to die for. You make butter and marmalade sandwiches with the bread first -- then cut them in quarters and layer them in the dish. I also grate some orange zest into the cream.

Damn, now I might have to make that tonight.
