The Prince of Wales pudding is a traditional British dessert that originated in the 19th century and is named after Prince Edward, who later became King Edward VII. It is a baked pudding made with breadcrumbs, apples, currants, citrus peel, sugar, nutmeg and eggs. The combination of these ingredients gives the pudding a fruity, spicy and sweet flavor that is perfect for serving with a dollop of whipped cream or custard.
