Sedgwick’s Sticky Pudding

Serves 4

Ingredients

310ml cake flour

10ml bicarbonate of soda

1ml salt

2 eggs

250ml castor sugar

30ml butter

125ml buttermilk

15ml apricot jam

2,5ml grated orange zest

60ml orange juice

15ml vinegar

For the sauce:

125ml butter

125ml soft brown sugar

125ml Sedgwick’s Original Old Brown

125ml cream

Method: 

1. Preheat the oven to 180°C and butter 6 x 125ml baking mould pans.
2. Sift the flour, bicarbonate of soda and salt together in a big mixing bowl.
3. Whisk the eggs and sugar together in another bowl until the texture is light and fluffy.
4. Heat the butter, buttermilk, apricot jam, grated orange zest, orange juice and vinegar together in the microwave for a few seconds until the butter is melted.
5. Fold the flour mixture alternately into the egg mixture and the butter mixture, mix it well but do not over-mix. Pour the mixture for three-quarters into the prepared moulds and put these on an oven tray. Bake in the oven for 20 to 30 minutes.
6. Prepare the sauce while the mixture is in the oven. Combine all the ingredients for the sauce in a small saucepan and cook until the sugar has melted.
7. Remove the puddings from the oven and turn them out onto the plate on which you are going to serve them. Prick holes in the puddings with a skewer and pour some of the sauce over them while they are still hot. Serve the rest of the sauce on the side.
