This delightful treat is perfect for any occasion and can be enjoyed by family and friends. In this recipe, we’ll guide you through the steps to create this mouth-watering pudding that is sure to impress.
Instructions:
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
- Grease a 1.5-quart (1.5-liter) pudding basin or an ovenproof dish with butter.
- Finely grate the ginger root.
- In a large mixing bowl, beat the butter and sugar together using an electric mixer or a wooden spoon until the mixture is pale and fluffy.
- Add the eggs one at a time to the butter-sugar mixture, beating well after each addition until fully incorporated.
- Sift together the self-raising flour, baking powder, and ground cinnamon in a separate bowl.
- Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet mixture, folding gently with a spatula or a wooden spoon until just combined.
- Stir in the grated ginger.
- Gradually add the milk, stirring gently until the batter is smooth and well combined.
- Pour the maple syrup into the bottom of the prepared pudding basin or ovenproof dish.
- Spoon the batter gently over the maple syrup, spreading it evenly.
- Cover the basin or dish with a layer of greased parchment paper and then with a layer of aluminum foil, sealing the edges tightly.
- Place the basin or dish in a larger baking pan. Pour hot water into the larger baking pan to come halfway up the sides of the basin or dish (this creates a water bath).
- Carefully place the baking pan in the preheated oven and bake for about 1 to 1.5 hours, or until a skewer inserted into the center of the pudding comes out clean.
- Carefully remove the pudding basin or dish from the water bath and let it rest for a few minutes.
- Gently turn the pudding out onto a serving plate.
- Serve warm, enjoying the deliciously rich and spicy flavors of the ginger golden syrup pudding. Optionally, you can serve it with vanilla ice cream, whipped cream, or custard.
Tips:
- Grate the ginger root finely to ensure an even distribution of its flavor throughout the pudding.
- Ensure that the butter is at room temperature before creaming it with the sugar to achieve a light and fluffy texture.
- Sift the self-raising flour and baking powder together to remove any lumps and to incorporate air, which helps the pudding rise better.
- To avoid curdling, add the eggs one at a time, beating well after each addition.
- Mix the dry ingredients into the wet ingredients gradually to prevent overmixing, which can make the pudding dense.
- Keep an eye on the baking time, as overbaking can render the dessert dry. Insert a skewer into the center to check for doneness – it should come out clean.
- Serve the pudding warm with a drizzle of extra golden syrup or maple syrup for enhanced flavor and presentation.
This Ginger Golden Syrup Pudding is an excellent dessert that combines the robust flavors of ginger and cinnamon with the smooth sweetness of golden syrup. It’s the perfect way to cap off a meal, offering a delightful experience for the taste buds. Enjoy your homemade pudding with a scoop of ice cream or a dollop of whipped cream for an extra touch of indulgence.
