  3. Place the dish on a baking tray. Bake the pudding for 30 minutes.

  5. Remove the dish from the oven and carefully sprinkle over the crumble mixture. Bake for a further 15 minutes or until golden and the pudding has set. Set aside for 5-10 minutes to cool slightly before serving. Serve drizzled with a little extra maple syrup and a dollop of yoghurt, if desired.
