The Apple Cranberry Pudding is a traditional British dessert that has been enjoyed for generations. The recipe sticks to classic flavors and uses simple ingredients commonly found in a pantry. The dish is perfect for the holiday season and makes for a fantastic dessert for gatherings with friends and family. The tanginess of the cranberries complements the sweetness of the apples in a unique way, and the combination of ground almonds and fruit gives the pudding a lovely texture.

Instructions

1.	Preheat the oven to 350°F/180°C.
2.	Butter a 2 pint ovenproof dish.
3.	Peel, core and slice the apples. Put them in a saucepan with the brown sugar and cinnamon. Cover and cook over a low heat until they are soft.
4.	Add the cranberries to the apple mixture. Cook gently until they pop. Stir in the apple or orange juice if using.
5.	Cream the butter or margarine and sugar until light and fluffy.
6.	Gradually stir in the beaten eggs, a little at a time, adding 1 tablespoon of the flour mixture with the last addition to prevent curdling.
7.	Fold in the remaining flour and the ground almonds.
8.	Spoon the apple mixture into the prepared dish, then cover with the pudding mixture.
9.	Bake in the preheated oven for 35-40 minutes until the top is golden brown.
