Eve's pudding, also known as Mother Eve's pudding, is a type of traditional British pudding made from apples baked under a Victoria sponge cake mixture. The name is a reference to the apple variety traditionally used (an eating apple) called Eve.[1] The pudding can be served with custard, cream, or ice cream. It is a version of Duke of Cumberland's pudding, named after Prince William, Duke of Cumberland. The first known recipe is from 1824 and uses grated bread and grated suet.[2]
