Figgy pudding is mentioned in Christmas Carols and has been a holiday dessert for many years. It was started in England around the 16th century.

1/2 cup of butter 2 eggs 1 cup of molasses 2 cups of dried figs chopped small (I put them through a meat grinder) 1/2 teaspoon of lemon rind 1 cup of buttermilk 1/2 cup of walnuts 2 1/2 cups of flour 1/2 teaspoon of baking soda 2 teaspoons of baking powder 1 teaspoon of salt 1/2 teaspoon of cinnamon 1/4 teaspoon of nutmeg Garnish whipped Cream

Cream butter and molasses add eggs. Add figs, lemon rind, then add flour, walnuts, baking soda, baking powder, cinnamon, nutmeg. Blend all together in a mixer. Pour into souffle dish and bake for about an hour at 325 degrees until the toothpick comes out clean. I thought it was good. There is no refined sugar in it. Next I will try it with a no gluten flour.
