Ingredients

Quantity Ingredient
8 ounces Shortcrust pastry
FILLING
Raspberry or
Strawberry jam
4 ounces Margarine
4 ounces Caster sugar
4 ounces Ground almonds
2 Eggs, well beaten
Few drops almond essence

Directions

Set oven to 375/F or Mark 5. Line a shallow pie dish with pastry and spread with a layer of jam. Mix all the other ingredients together and spread over the jam. Bake for 20-30 minutes until the fllling is set. This version of the Bakewell Pudding is often preferred both for its flavour and texture. The use of ground almonds makes the filling firmer. Another variation of this recipe uses 2 oz. self- raising flour and 2 oz. ground rice instead of the ground almonds.
