Instructions:
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
- Grease a 1.5-quart (1.5-liter) baking dish with a little butter or non-stick spray.
- In a large mixing bowl, combine the melted butter, milk, lightly beaten egg, and maple syrup. Mix well to fully incorporate all the wet ingredients.
- Gradually add the self-raising flour and 1/2 cup of brown sugar to the wet mixture. Stir until the batter is smooth and free of lumps.
- Gently fold in the chopped pecans until evenly distributed throughout the batter.
- Pour the batter into the prepared baking dish, spreading it out evenly.
- In a separate bowl, combine the hot espresso coffee and light sour cream. Stir until smooth.
- Slowly and evenly pour the coffee and sour cream mixture over the batter in the baking dish.
- Place the dish in the preheated oven and bake for 30-35 minutes or until the pudding is set and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
- Let the pudding cool slightly before serving. The pudding will have a delicious, saucy bottom layer with a spongy top. Serve warm, optionally with a scoop of vanilla ice cream or a dollop of whipped cream.
Tips:
- To enhance the flavor, toast the pecans lightly before chopping them and adding them to the pudding.
- Make sure to use freshly brewed espresso for a more robust coffee flavor.
- Serve the pudding warm to enjoy the gooey, self-saucing layer at its best.
- If you prefer a sweeter pudding, consider adding a bit more maple syrup or a sprinkle of powdered sugar on top before serving.
