12 Days of Christmas Baking Day 8: Malva Pudding
This South African dessert feels a combination of bread pudding and a more traditional British pudding with the sauce on top. This recipe was easy to put together, the only reason I marked this as a 9 under baking ease is because I had to convert everything from metric to imperial. Thankfully our scale has…

This dish is one of my favorites and was a staple at our house during various holiday meals. Before we dig into the particulars for this recipe let’s go ahead and address the elephant in the room… As its name implies, it is a salad; therefore, it’s okay to eat during the meal and it…
