Fruit pudding is a Scottish dish which is a mixture of wheat or oatmeal flour or breadcrumbs, beef suet, brown sugar, currants, raisins, sultanas, salt and cinnamon, formed into the shape of a large sausage.[1][2][3]

Normally cut into slices and fried, it is an optional feature of the traditional Scottish breakfast.[2][4][5][6][7][8][9][10][11] Although served in this context as part of a savoury meal, its close relationship to clootie dumpling means it may also be served as a dessert.[2]

Many Scottish producers of sausage, sliced sausage, black pudding, white pudding and haggis also make fruit pudding.[12] It is not uncommon to find a “breakfast pack” consisting of sausage, sliced sausage, black pudding and fruit pudding on sale in Scottish shops.
