Coffee pecan self-saucing pudding

Indulge in this delightful Coffee Pecan Self-Saucing Pudding, a dessert that combines the rich flavors of coffee and pecans with a light, self-saucing sponge. It’s perfect for impressing your guests or simply treating yourself to an after-dinner delight. This easy-to-follow recipe utilizes simple ingredients to create a comforting and delectable pudding.

Instructions:

1. Preheat Oven: Begin by preheating your oven to 350°F (175°C).
2. Prepare Baking Dish: Grease a medium-sized baking dish or pudding dish with a small amount of butter to prevent sticking.
3. Melt Butter and Mix Pecans: In a small saucepan, melt the 2 tablespoons of butter over medium heat. Once melted, remove from heat and stir in the roughly chopped pecans. Set aside.
4. Combine Dry Ingredients: In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the 1/2 cup of brown sugar and 1 cup of self-raising flour until well combined.
5. Mix Wet Ingredients: In another bowl, combine the 1/3 cup of milk, 1 lightly beaten egg, 1 teaspoon of vanilla extract, and 2 tablespoons of espresso coffee. Mix until well blended.
6. Create Batter: Gradually add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients, stirring until just combined. Do not overmix.
7. Fold in Pecans: Gently fold the melted butter and pecan mixture into the batter.
8. Transfer to Baking Dish: Pour the batter into the prepared baking dish, spreading it evenly.
9. Create Sauce Layer: Reserve a small amount of chopped pecans and brown sugar. Sprinkle them over the top of the batter for added texture and flavor.
10. Bake: Place the baking dish in the preheated oven and bake for 30-35 minutes or until the pudding is set and a skewer inserted into the center comes out clean.
11. Cool Slightly: Allow the pudding to cool for about 5-10 minutes before serving. This will help the sauce to thicken slightly.
12. Serve and Enjoy: Spoon the pudding into bowls, making sure to include some of the delicious sauce that forms at the bottom. Enjoy warm, preferably with a dollop of whipped cream or a scoop of vanilla ice cream.

Tips:

- For an extra crunch, lightly toast the pecans before adding them to the mixture.

- Make sure to sift the self-raising flour to avoid any lumps in the batter.

- You can substitute the espresso coffee with strong brewed coffee if you don’t have an espresso machine.

- Serve the pudding immediately after baking to enjoy the self-saucing effect at its best.

- If you prefer a stronger coffee flavor, you can add an extra tablespoon of espresso coffee.

This Coffee Pecan Self-Saucing Pudding is not only full of flavor but also comes with a built-in sauce that adds a touch of extra indulgence. Serve it warm, perhaps with a scoop of vanilla ice cream or a dollop of whipped cream for an extra special treat. You'll love the way the rich coffee and nutty pecans come together in this comforting dessert.
