This is one of those wonderful winter comfort food puddings that has its own gooey toffee sauce hidden underneath, but is even better served with custard, ice cream or cream. To make it even more special add some roughly chopped walnuts or pecan nuts to the flour mixture or sprinkle over the top of the pudding before baking. Beware: dangerously gorgeous. Ingredients:
140 g flour |
100 g white sugar |
15 g baking powder |
200 ml milk |
1 egg |
85 g butter |
300 g apples (or 2 sharp green bramley apples) |
140 g dark brown sugar |
250 ml boiling water |
1 pinch salt |
Directions:
1. Heat the oven to 180C, 365F, gas mark 4.
2. Grease a 3 pint shallow (2-3 inches) ovenproof dish.
3. Mix flour, white sugar, salt and baking powder in a large bowl.
4. Beat egg and mix with milk and melted butter.
5. Stir into the dry ingredients until smooth.
6. Peel, quarter and core the apples, cut each quarter into 2 – 3 thick slices.
7. Lay the apples on the bottom of the dish and pour the batter over the top.
8. Add boiling water to the brown sugar, stir well and pour evenly over the pudding.
9. Bake for about 40 mins until the pudding is golden brown and springy to the touch.
