Peanut Butter and Jam Sponge Pudding
Have you ever tried peanut butter and jelly pudding? It’s as easy as that classic childhood snack. The only difference is that the ingredients are swapped out for those more appropriate to have in a pudding. I thought it was an exciting concept, so I decided to try it, and now I’m hooked! This recipe can be made with other flavours by adding different jams or other syrups instead of jam.
