Christmas Pudding Drop Scones

If you find yourself with leftover Christmas pud, these
Christmas Pudding Drop Scones by Lisa Faulkner are the perfect way to use it
up! Kids sometimes find Christmas pudding a bit rich, so these scones are the
ideal treat, as they give a flavour of the pud but in a soft pancake-like form.
They are super-quick to rustle up and ideal served with ice cream – or brandy
cream for grown-ups, if they fancy it.

Ingredients
- 250g self-raising flour
- ¼ tsp bicarbonate of soda
- 60g caster sugar
- 1 medium egg, beaten
- 220ml semi-skimmed milk
- 30g unsalted butter
- 100g leftover Christmas pudding (or fruit cake), crumbled
Method
Step 1
Sift the flour and bicarbonate of soda together into a medium bowl. Stir in the sugar, then make a well in the centre of the mixture. In a jug, whisk the egg and milk together, then slowly beat into the dry mix to create a smooth, thick batter. Set aside to rest for 15 mins.
Step 2
Heat a large, non-stick frying pan over a medium heat. Coat with the butter. Drop 6 individual, spaced out tbsp of the batter into the pan, then sprinkle a third of the Christmas pudding over the top. Cook for 2 mins, until bubbles appear on the surface of the pancakes, then flip and cook for 1 min or so, before removing them from the pan.
Step 3
Repeat the process with two more batches of 6, rubbing the pan with more butter before each. Serve with your choice of toppings.
