Fruit pudding is a Scottish dish which is a mixture of wheat or oatmeal flour, beef suet, brown sugar, currants and/or sultanas, salt and cinnamon formed into the shape of a large sausage.[1][2]
Normally cut into slices and fried, it is an optional feature of the traditional Scottish breakfast.[3][4][2][5] Although served in this context as part of a savoury meal, its close relationship to dumpling means it may also be served as a dessert.[2]
Many Scottish producers of sausage, sliced sausage, black pudding, white pudding and haggis also make fruit pudding. It is not uncommon to find a "breakfast pack" consisting of sausage, sliced sausage, black pudding and fruit pudding on sale in Scottish shops.[6][7][8]
In London, rock musician Alex Harvey purchased his Scottish breakfast supplies, including fruit pudding, from Fortnum and Mason.[9]
