  1. Really disappointing waste Of good ingredients did I miss something ? Should there have been butter in it , what ever will ever attempt it again .

    1. Hi Tricia,

      I’m sorry to hear that Jamie Oliver’s Eve’s Pudding didn’t turn out well for you. In the recipe, butter is used only for greasing the dish, not in the pudding itself.
      For a better result, ensure the eggs and sugar are well beaten until fluffy, and the apples are cooked until soft.
      Oven variations can affect baking, so do a skewer test to check if it’s done. Don’t lose heart, sometimes a second try can make all the difference!
