Scottish Tablet and Whisky Pudding
A decadent dessert that combines the sweet, crumbly texture of Scottish tablet with the warming notes of whisky, baked into a comforting pudding.
🧂 Ingredienti
- 200 g Scottish Tablet(roughly chopped)
- 150 g Butter(softened, plus extra for greasing)
- 150 g Caster sugar
- 3 large Eggs
- 150 g Self-raising flour
- 100 ml Milk
- 50 ml Scotch whisky(plus extra for serving (optional))
- 1 tsp Baking powder
- 1 tsp Vanilla extract
👨🍳 Istruzioni
- 1
Preheat your oven to 180°C (160°C fan/Gas Mark 4). Grease and line a 20cm (8-inch) round baking tin or pudding basin with butter.
💡 Consigli Professionali: Using baking parchment will help prevent sticking. - 2
In a large bowl, cream together the softened butter and caster sugar until light and fluffy.
💡 Consigli Professionali: An electric mixer is helpful here. - 3
Beat in the eggs one at a time, adding a tablespoon of the flour with each egg to prevent curdling. Stir in the vanilla extract.
💡 Consigli Professionali: Ensure each egg is fully incorporated before adding the next. - 4
Sift the self-raising flour and baking powder into the mixture. Gently fold them in, along with the milk and Scotch whisky, until just combined. Be careful not to overmix.
💡 Consigli Professionali: Folding ensures the batter remains light. - 5
Gently fold in the chopped Scottish tablet. The mixture will be quite thick.
💡 Consigli Professionali: Some tablet pieces should remain visible. - 6
Spoon the batter into the prepared tin or basin. Cover the top with a layer of foil, pleating it to allow for expansion, and tie securely with string.
💡 Consigli Professionali: This prevents the top from drying out and helps it steam. - 7
Place the tin or basin in a larger roasting tin. Pour boiling water into the larger tin to come halfway up the sides of the pudding basin/tin. Carefully transfer to the preheated oven.
💡 Consigli Professionali: This creates a bain-marie, ensuring even cooking. - 8
Bake for 50-60 minutes, or until a skewer inserted into the centre comes out clean. The pudding should be golden brown and firm to the touch.

Allow the pudding to cool slightly in the tin before turning it out onto a serving plate. Serve warm, perhaps with a drizzle of extra whisky or a dollop of cream.
💡 Consigli Professionali
- ✓Ensure your tablet is fresh and not too hard, otherwise it may not soften sufficiently during baking.
- ✓If you don't have a pudding basin, a heatproof bowl with foil will work.
- ✓For a richer flavour, you can add a tablespoon of malt whisky to the batter.
