    Popular and easy winter desserts

    A just-baked dessert can bring much-needed cheer on cold nights. Whether you are craving cookies or have a passion for puddings, we have you covered.


    A just-baked dessert can bring much-needed cheer on cold nights. 

    Here are 10 worthy options, from cookies and self-saucing puddings to crumbles and easy cakes.

    Rice pudding is an easy dessert made with simple ingredients and this version is made on the stove. It's extra delicious with the addition of eggs, which give it a custard-like flavour.

    A crisp is like a crumble, only crunchier with a nutty oat-based topping. Enjoy with a scoop of vanilla ice cream or for breakfast with Greek yoghurt.

    3. Sticky date pudding with a twist

    The genius of this recipe is the pudding and sauce bake together. It's a self-saucing pudding with butterscotch sauce taking the place of caramel.

    Tender, spiced pears form the base of this warming crumble, with a golden, coconut-studded topping.

    Made with mostly pantry ingredients, you can be enjoying molten chocolate puddings within half an hour with this recipe that feeds two.

    If you prefer your desserts with a little tang, make lemon delicious with lemon curd at the base and a fluffy sponge on top.

    The marmalade caramelises as the pudding bakes and is accompanied by a lightly spiced cake topping. Serve with cream or ice cream.

    Make the most of citrus season with this buttery orange and lemon cake. Once baked, it's finished with a citrus syrup, which keeps it moist.

    This recipe makes five oversized chocolate chunk cookies, made with oats, spelt flour, olive oil and dark chocolate.

    Use leftover white bread to make this bread and butter pudding, with butter, jam and no dried fruit!
