The variations on this are endless because the filling can be any combination of mincemeat, pumpkin and/or cranberry sauce, but here's my favorite combination.

Time 3h20m

Yield 8

Number Of Ingredients 11

1 ½ cups self-rising flour
1 cup white sugar
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
2 eggs, beaten
¼ cup melted butter
½ cup prepared mincemeat pie filling
½ cup whole cranberry sauce
½ cup pumpkin puree
1 (8 ounce) container sour cream
1 (8 ounce) package cream cheese
⅓ cup confectioners' sugar

Steps:

  • Grease one 2-quart lidded pudding mold. Sift together the flour, sugar and cinnamon; set aside.
  • In a large bowl, mix together the eggs, butter, mincemeat, cranberry sauce and pumpkin. Add to flour mixture and mix until smooth; pour into pudding mold.
  • Place a rack in the bottom of a large pot, over medium heat, and fill 1/2 way up with boiling water. Place the pudding on the rack. Steam for 2 1/2 hours.
  • Check the pan occasionally and add more water if needed. Check for doneness by inserting a toothpick in the center. When firm, place the pudding mold on a rack outside of the water for 10 minutes and unmold.
  • Prepare a sauce by blending together the sour cream, cream cheese and confectioners sugar. Spoon dollops over warm pudding and serve.

This pudding is a bit pricey to make, but it's definitely worth the cost. It's a special treat that my family and I look forward to every year.

I'm allergic to nuts, so I substituted the almonds in this recipe with chopped pecans. It turned out great!

This recipe is a great starting point, but I like to add my own personal touches. I often add a bit of cinnamon or nutmeg to the batter, and I sometimes top the pudding with a dollop of whipped cream.

This recipe is a bit too sweet for my taste. I would recommend reducing the amount of sugar by half.

I made this pudding for my family last Christmas and it was a huge disappointment. It was dry and tasteless, and I ended up throwing it away.
