    Sephardic Wine and Fruit Pudding

    Published: Feb 28, 2007 · Updated: Mar 4, 2021 · This post may contain affiliate links.

    These little baked squares, rich with dried fruits, nuts, and wine, are a delectable Passover dessert.

    Makes: 24 or more little squares

    • ½ cup chopped dried apricots
    • ½ cup chopped dates
    • ⅓ cup raisins
    • ¾ cup sweet Passover wine
    • ½ cup applesauce
    • ¼ cup agave nectar or maple syrup
    • ¾ cup matzo cake meal
    • 1 teaspoon cinnamon
    • 2 tablespoons olive oil
    • ⅔ cup finely chopped walnuts

    Combine the dried fruits with the wine in a small mixing bowl. Let soak overnight or for the good part of a day, then drain off any excess wine.

    Preheat the oven to 350 degrees.

    Combine the remaining ingredients in a mixing bowl, then stir in the soaked fruits. Pour into an oiled 9- by 13-inch baking pan. Bake, covered, for 45 minutes, then uncover and bake for 15 minutes more, or until the pudding looks dark but still moist and springs back at a gentle touch. Cool, then cut into small squares or diamonds to serve.

      Hi Nava,
      Thank you for the Peasch recipes!
      I have been eating plant based for 2 years. I prefer to
      not any type of oil. What would be a substitute in this recipe?

      Hi Aline, you can use a little applesauce. You might need a tiny bit more than the amount of oil specified. Happy holiday!

      Thanks Lori! I haven't made this in years, so I'm glad it was such a hit on your end. Your comment reminds me to revisit this recipe, and take a photo while I'm at it.
