Lemon Delicious Pudding
This pudding is self-saucing and can take some practice in finding the ratio of cake to sauce that you like (this is done by increasing or dereasing the amount of water in the water bath). I also suggest serving with vanilla icecream.
There are parts of the recipe where the batter may look separated: this is okay! Once cooked, it will be fine.
Ingredients
- 60g butter, room temperature
- 3/4 cup caster sugar
- 2 tsp lemon zest
- 3 egg whites
- 3 egg yolks
- 1/4 cup self-raising flour
- 3/4 cup milk
- 1/3 cup lemon juice
Method
- Preheat the oven to 160oC.
- Using an electric beater, beat the egg whites until firm peaks form.
- In a separate bowl, beat butter, sugar, and lemon zest until light and creamy.
- Gradually beat in the flour to the lemon mixture before beating in the milk, egg yolks, and lemon juice. This is where the mixture may look separated.
- With a spatula, fold in a third of the egg whites. Gently fold in the rest of the egg whites, careful not to over mix.
- Pour the batter into a medium sized glass dish.
- In a bigger dish (like a lasagna dish), place in a folded tea towel and then place the glass dish on top of it. Fill with hot/boiling water until it reaches halfway up the side of the dish.
- Bake for 55 minutes or until golden brown on top.
