-
Place the water, sugar, golden syrup, cinnamon, mixed spice and sunflower spread into a large saucepan, place on a medium heat and stir until the sunflower spread has melted.
-
Add the mixed fruit, sultanas and almonds to the wet mix and bring the mix to the boil and allow to simmer for a few minutes. Once simmered set aside to cool.
-
Once the fruit mix is cool sift in the flour and bicarb, briefly mix and crack in the eggs, mix well with a wooden spoon until all combined.
-
Line a large glass bowl with cling film and then pour in the mixture, give it a shake so it fills all the spaces. Place the bowl in the microwave for 14 minutes (for a 750W microwave, 10 minutes for a 900W). Once cooked through a skewer or knife pushed into the middle will come out clean.
-
Tip the glass bowl upside down onto a plate and give it a wiggle, the glass bowl should easily lift off the clootie.
Gluten Free Microwave Clootie Dumpling
Back to all recipes.A traditional Scottish dessert commonly associated with Hogmanay. Clootie is actually a strip of cloth so this is more of a rip of version as it isn't boiled in a cloth like tradition, instead we do it in the microwave and of course made it gluten free. It is packed with fruit, almost like a fruit cake and is super delicious.
