My sweet tooth was in overdrive last night, and with no chocolate in the house things were looking pretty grim. The only option was to come up with a dessert, and fast.
My first thought was a bread and butter pudding but quickly realised there were no eggs in the house either (I refuse to buy cage eggs and at my local supermarket the other day that was all that was available). Desperation was starting to set in so I rummaged deeper in the back of the pantry and found three possibilities. Condensed milk, sliced peaches and mandarin segments. Peach crumble! Rolled oats, check. Brown sugar, check. Flour, check. Butter, check. Perfect, we were on a winner, salvation was not far away!
On a whim I decided to combine the peaches and mandarin and the result was fantastic. The brash sweetness of canned peaches was softened by the tang of the mandarin, one pot of home made custard later and dessert was a winner!
Simple, tasty, fast.
You never know what you will find in the pantry, have a look in yours and inspire yourself too!
