Ingredients:
Instructions:
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
- In a large mixing bowl, sift together the self-raising flour and corn flour. Add the brown sugar and mix well to combine.
- In a separate bowl, whisk the egg and add the milk. Stir in the melted butter and 1/3 cup of maple syrup until well combined.
- Gradually pour the wet mixture into the dry ingredients, stirring until just combined. Do not overmix.
- Fold in the chopped pecans gently.
- Lightly grease an 8-inch (20cm) square baking dish or a similar-sized dish.
- Pour the batter into the prepared baking dish and spread it evenly.
- In a small bowl, combine the extra 1/4 cup maple syrup with the boiling water. Stir until well mixed.
- Carefully pour the sauce mixture over the back of a spoon evenly over the batter. This will create the self-saucing effect as the pudding bakes.
8. Bake:
- Place the baking dish in the preheated oven. Bake for 30-35 minutes, or until the top is golden brown and the pudding is set with a saucy layer underneath.
- Allow the pudding to cool for a few minutes before serving. The sauce will thicken slightly as it cools.
- Serve warm with a scoop of vanilla ice cream or a dollop of whipped cream for a delightful finish.
Tips:
- Ensure your butter is melted but not too hot when mixing, as this will help it blend more easily with the other ingredients.
- Chop the pecans roughly to ensure a good texture and distribution throughout the pudding.
- For an even more intense flavor, toast the pecans lightly in a dry pan for a few minutes before adding them to the mix.
- Use a skewer or toothpick to check if the pudding is done; it should come out clean from the cake portion while the sauce should be thick and gooey.
- Let the pudding rest for a few minutes after baking to allow the sauce to thicken up slightly before serving.
Once baked, you'll be rewarded with a heavenly pudding that offers a perfect balance of sweetness from the golden syrup and a delightful crunch from the pecans. Serve it warm with a scoop of vanilla ice cream or a dollop of whipped cream for an extra touch of luxury. This Golden Syrup and Pecan Self-Saucing Pudding is sure to become a favorite go-to dessert.
