Apple Sponge Pudding with Toffee Sauce
Apple and toffee is hard to beat. You may prepare this pudding in advance and chill then bake as required remembering to increase you baking time to approx 35 minutes from the fridge. The pudding is somewhere in between a sponge mix and a pastry. Loads of hot toffee sauce and consider a scoop of ice cream. The toffee sauce will keep for 5 days in the fridge and simply microwave to reheat.

Brian’s Tips
Add blueberries when in season through the apples.
Make individual puddings and freeze. They microwave from frozen.
