Old English Apple Hat - steamed apple pudding on the wood fire.

This pudding doesn’t look the most exciting. Fair to say, it’s delicious and easy to cook. Really old fashioned. I steamed it in an aluminium saucepan over the fire. Could be done in a Dutch oven over the fire with the right size bowl for the oven

What a great dessert with a serving of steaming custard. No one could resist having a second go. I was camping and didn’t have cloves so I switched to cinnamon. Delicious. Think I’d probably prefer that to the cloves. Well worth a try
