Eves Pudding Recipes

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Butter an 8 1/2-inch square baking dish; set aside. Whisk flour, baking powder, and 1/2 teaspoon salt in a medium bowl; set aside.
• Put apples, 1/4 cup sugar, the lemon juice, cinnamon, and a pinch of salt into a large bowl; toss to combine. Transfer to prepared baking dish, and sprinkle 2 tablespoons water over top; set aside.
• Put butter and 6 tablespoons sugar into the bowl of an electric mixer fitted with the paddle attachment. Mix on medium-high speed until pale and fluffy. Add eggs, one at a time, mixing after each addition. Mix in vanilla. Reduce speed to low. Add flour mixture, alternating with milk. Mix until combined.
• Spread batter over apples, and sprinkle with remaining 2 tablespoons sugar. Bake until batter is cooked through and juices are bubbling, about 40 minutes. Let cool on a wire rack 15 minutes. Spoon into dishes; serve drizzled with cream.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees.
• Melt 4 tablespoons of butter with the brown sugar, and pour into a 10-inch round cake pan. Coat the bottom of the pan evenly with the mixture. Quarter the plums and arrange them neatly to cover the bottom of the pan.
• Cream the remaining butter with the sugar until pale and fluffy. Add the vanilla extract, and beat in the egg yolks one at a time.
• Sift together the flour, baking powder and salt, and add them to the batter alternately with the milk, beginning and ending with the dry ingredients. Whisk the egg whites until they hold a slight shape. Fold the egg whites into the batter a third at a time until incorporated. Pour the batter into the prepared pan, and spread it evenly over the plums. Bake for 45 to 55 minutes, until the top is browned and a cake tester inserted in the center comes out clean. Let the cake cool for 20 minutes, and then turn over onto a cake plate. Serve with whipped cream.

Steps:

• Heat oven to 180C/160C fan/gas 4. Peel, core and slice the apples. Grease a large serving dish, about 2.5 litre/3 litre with 25g/1oz of the butter and tip in the apple. Scatter the raisins over the top.
• In a separate dish beat the remaining butter and sugar together for 10 mins until the butter turns pale and the sugar starts to dissolve. Beat in the eggs, then carefully fold in the flour with a large spoon. Spread the batter over the apples, then bake for 45 mins until golden. Serve with the custard, below.
