Fresh fruit and a hot sauce are perfect for those dull and damp summer evenings, when you want a hot pudding but also want to pretend to be healthy. This quick and easy pudding can be cooked in just a few minutes is very good for using up odd bits of fruit that are starting to turn – nectarines, bananas and apples would all work.
I used “stone clinger” peaches – those peaches that are overripe on the outside and still hard in the middle.

What a perfect fruity dessert, simple and fuss free. It would be amazing with bananas.

I love butterscotch desserts, and it is delicious with fruit. Great for using up also turning fruit, I hate it when peaches do that thing with still being hard on the stone.
