We're having the family round for a Sunday roast this weekend and I am so bored of doing the usual apple/berry crumble... Any other inspiring (but relatively easy) ideas for pudding? Luckily no particularly fussy eaters except for one rhubarb-hater (me). grin

What about gently heating a mixture of berries (blackberries, raspberries,red currants and blackcurrants) and pour them over a dollop of vanilla ice-cream. Yummy!

Cut a banana in half lengthways and again widthways (4 pieces). I banana for each person. Fry them in butter or low fat spread until golden brown. Remove from pan and keep warm. Stir some brown sugar into pan (adding a little more butter if necessary) and cook over a low heat for a few minutes, then add some lime juice (and, optional, some dark rum smile). Place 4 pieces of banana on each bowl, pour sauce over and sprinkle with toasted coconut.
Sorry, no measurements as I just make this up as I go, but it is so easy and so delicious!

Start with lots of sand, then add a camel or two

I find summer pudding quick and easy to make. I buy frozen summer fruits. Served with cream or fromais frais.
