The best thing about this pudding besides it being basically flop-proof, is that you generally have all the ingredients at home. You can make it a couple of hours in advance and reheat in an oven @ 100ºC for a couple of minutes. Serve with cream or ice cream or both. I like mine with buttered popcorn ice cream.

Method

  •  Heat the oven to 180ºC. Grease a 20cm ovenproof dish with a lid or 10 individual ramekins.
  • Beat together the egg, apricot jam, vinegar & sugar. Add the milk, cake flour, bicarb & baking powder.
  • Bake, covered, for 45 minutes (30 minutes if you’re baking the smaller ones).
  • While the pudding is baking, heat the vanilla, cream & castor sugar until the sugar is melted.
  • Remove from the oven, cut the pudding in to squares & pour over the hot sauce, place the lid back on the dish & place back in the turned off oven for a couple of minutes. If you’re baking the minis, then make a hole in the middle of each & pour the sauce in to each one.
  • Serve with cream, ice cream or buttered popcorn ice cream.
