June 09 Daring Bakers: Bakewell Tart... er... pudding


The June Daring Bakers' challenge was hosted by Jasmine of Confessions of a Cardamom Addict and Annemarie of Ambrosia and Nectar. They chose a Traditional (UK) Bakewell Tart... er... pudding that was inspired by a rich baking history dating back to the 1800's in England.

I don't know what makes a tart versus what makes a pudding but this rocked. I made mine with lingonberries, as it was for a brunch and I felt that made it kind of breakfasty. I love the combination of tart/bitter with almond flavor.

This was my first month participating in daring bakers, and I did really enjoy it. Thanks Jasmine and Annemarie!
