Pear and Ginger Sponge Pudding Recipe

This pudding is lovely on its own or served with your favourite yogurt.

As well as giving this dessert recipe a wonderful taste and texture, the pears also provide fiber, vitamin B2, C, E, copper, and potassium. Pears are an excellent source of pectin, which is a water soluble fiber. Fibre is great for everyone, but especially dieter's because it keeps us feeling full longer.


This recipe is low in fat and a good source of protein.
