Lemon delicious pudding ingredients
- 1 large lemon – zested and juiced
- 2 eggs
- 50g butter, room temperature
- 1 cup caster sugar
- ¼ cup self raising flour
- 1 cup milk
- ½ teaspoon vanilla paste
- 1 tablespoon icing sugar
Method
- Preheat the oven to 170°C. Grease a one litre capacity ovenproof dish and set aside.
- Carefully separate the eggs. Using electric beaters, beat together the butter, sugar and lemon rind until combined.
- Add the egg yolks one at a time, beating between each one.
- Add the vanilla, then beat in the lemon juice.
- Beat in the flour and at a slow stirring speed, slowly add the milk. The mixture will likely begin to appear curdled, don’t panic, continue on!
- In a separate bowl, beat the egg whites into stiff peaks. Fold the egg whites into the lemon mixture.
- Pour the pudding mixture into the greased ovenproof dish.
- Create a water bath by putting the ovenproof dish into a lasagne dish or roasting dish. Fill the bigger dish with water half way up the side of the pudding dish.
- Bake the pudding for 40 minutes. Let stand for 5 to 10 minutes and dust with icing sugar before serving. Yum!
