Very simple, utterly delish, lemon pudding!

[Nicos]

I have been looking for a recipe for something to make with the juice of about 16 lemons once I gave made my lemoncello...
however...
I stumbled across this recipe (no use to me as it needs zest too!) which is something I've made for years.
I just thought I'd share it with you as it's utterly wonderful...and, being Easter, it's also yellow!

Lemon pudding recipe – How to make Lemon pudding

That looks lovely

[Nicos]

Thank you!
It's sooo easy to make and delish hot, cold or warm!
I keep thinking I'd like to try it with oranges instead.....

[Nicos]

Oh...and make more than you think you'll need

Hmmm, I have some unwaxed lemons and quarter of a pint of milk to use up (I only have it due to recent visitors as I usually just have a carton of long-life non-dairy milk in for cooking). Half of one of those would probably be about right for me over a couple of days... (Well, actually, I'm pretty sure I could polish off a whole one in a single sitting, but I'm being good right now.)

Hmm.

I like the sounds of that recipe Nicos. I've added it to my vine blog. thanks

The milk in the ingredients list is never mentioned again in the recipe. Should find out in about 30 minutes if I added it at the right point or not!

Mmm, light fluffy lemony bliss

I made a bigger one that I'll leave to cool a bit, but I couldn't fit all the batter in one dish, so I did a little ramekin sized one too. The ramekin sized one appears to have subsequently, ah, disappeared...

It's self-saucing, and when I tipped it out the sauced bottom became the top:





I bet those of you with your own chickens and high quality yolks would get a more yellowy pudding too.

Highly recommended! (Oh, and I added the milk at the same time as the flour - seems to have worked)

[Nicos]

So glad you enjoyed it!!!

Yup, own eggs make it golden yellow, but I bet the flavour is just as yummy?

Addictive or what????

That looks bloody lovely! I love lemon too in anything... but especially in cakes like these I shall make this at my earliest opportunity

I put in double the zest it called for. If I make it again, I think I'll use double the lemon juice too and reduce it down to half volume before adding it (though if I didn't, it might just make the sauce saucier ).
