Coffee Pudding
Currently I am particularly interested in British cuisine. It is difficult to explain why. Maybe it’s fits my taste more than the other cuisine. I don’t like only boiled puddings. But I adore baked pudding. For example, coffee pudding - with its rich aroma, thin crust and tender crumb.
Ingredients
100g butter, softened
150 g brown sugar
1 egg, room temperature
100 g flour
250-300 ml cream 15-20% or half to half
2 tbsp strong coffee
1/2 tsp salt
1/2 tsp baking powder
2 tsp alkalized cocoa
ovenproof dish 27x18 cm / 21x21 cm
oven, preheated to 170°C/325°F
Method
1. In a bowl, whisk the butter and 100 g of the sugar until fluffy.
Beat in the egg. Pour coffee and mix thoroughly. Sift the flour with salt and baking powder and fold into the mixture. The dough should be very thick.
Add a little of the cream to give a dropping consistency. It took me about 150 ml cream.
2. Pour batter into a greased ovenproof dish; gently flatten the surface with a spatula. Mix the cream with the remaining 50 grams of sugar and pour over the pudding. Don’t be afraid! The cream and the sugar mixture will drain to the bottom of the dish.
3. Immediately send the pudding in a preheated 170°C oven and bake for 55-60 minutes until spongy to the touch.
If you have a hard bake oven, it is best to turn down the temperature to 165-160°C in order to prevent the “escape” of the cream back to the top of pudding. Or instead of fudge "puddles" under the pudding, you will have fudge "edging" on the pudding. In any case, pudding is delicious!
