Ingredients

Scale

6 ounces cranberries, fresh or frozen

1/4 cup dark maple syrup

1/4 cup white sugar

1/4 cup water

12 ounces frozen berry mix

8 ounces fresh blackberries (optional)

8 slices white bread, crusts removed

1 cup heavy cream

2 tablespoons dark maple syrup

1/4 teaspoon ground ginger

1 pinch salt

pomegranate seeds (for garnish)

Instructions

1. Line a 7 to 8-inch pudding bowl with plastic wrap with overhang.

2. Simmer cranberries, 1/4 cup maple syrup, sugar, and water for 10 minutes.

3. Add frozen berries and blackberries; cook on low for 10 minutes until soft.

4. Strain the juice into a bowl and set the fruit solids aside.

5. Dip one side of bread slices into juice for 2 seconds and line the bowl (dipped side out).

6. Fill with the fruit and seal the top with more dipped bread.

7. Wrap and weight the pudding; refrigerate for 4 to 24 hours.

8. Whip cream with 2 tbsp maple syrup, ginger, and salt. Unmold and serve.

Notes

Remove all crusts for a smooth texture.

Weighting the pudding is essential for it to hold its shape.

If chilling for only 4 hours, dip both sides of the bread for 1 second each.
