Preparation

  1. Chop dates and apricots. Combine with raisins and orange juice; soak for 1 hour.
  2. Divide the butter into the six bowls. Mix soft butter and brown sugar, add eggs then flour, breadcrumbs, almond, baking powder and cinnamon. Add shredded apple and fruit with their juice.
  3. Divide into bowls without exceeding three-quarters of their volume. Cover each with baking paper and then aluminum with a fold of ease, and tie under the ledge.
  4. Place the bowls on a rack in the casserole, without stacking. Add simmering water at mid-height. Cover and simmer 1 hour 30 minutes to 1 hour 45 minutes; top with hot water if necessary. A skewer planted in a pudding should come out without raw dough.
  5. Let stand for 15 minutes, remove lids carefully and unmold. Whisk the cold cream with icing sugar and vanilla until soft; place a spoonful next to each warm individual puddings. No buckling.

Preserve and Serve

3 days in the refrigerator without cream; steam. Cream prepared on the day of service.
