Ingredients:

1/3 cup butter
70g
2 cups sugar
400g
2 tbsp lemon zest
30g
1 tbsp lime zest
16g
2 tbsp orange zest
30g
4 eggs
200g
1/2 cup all-purpose white wheat flour
60g
1 tsp baking powder
5g
1.25 cups milk (1% fat)
300g
1/3 cup lemon juice
63g
1/3 cup lime juice
72g

Instructions:

1. Preheat Oven: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a 2-quart baking dish or individual ramekins with butter or non-stick spray.
2. Prepare Zests: Grate the lemon, lime, and orange zests and set them aside.
3. Cream Butter and Sugar: In a large mixing bowl, cream together the softened butter and sugar until light and fluffy. This will take about 3-4 minutes with an electric mixer on medium speed.
4. Add Zests: Add the prepared lemon zest, lime zest, and orange zest to the butter-sugar mixture. Mix until well combined.
5. Incorporate Eggs: Add the eggs one at a time, beating well after each addition. Mix until you have a smooth and creamy batter.
6. Combine Dry Ingredients: In a separate bowl, sift together the all-purpose flour and baking powder.
7. Add Dry Ingredients: Gradually add the sifted dry ingredients to the wet mixture. Mix gently until just combined. Do not overmix.
8. Add Milk and Juices: Slowly add the milk, lemon juice, and lime juice into the batter. Stir gently until all the ingredients are well combined and the mixture is smooth.
9. Pour Batter: Pour the batter into the prepared baking dish or divide it equally among the ramekins.
10. Bake: Place the baking dish or ramekins in the preheated oven. Bake for 45-50 minutes, or until the top is golden and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean. If using ramekins, check for doneness at around 35 minutes.
11. Cool Slightly: Let the pudding cool slightly on a wire rack for about 10 minutes before serving.
12. Serve: Serve the warm citrus pudding straight from the dish or ramekins. Optionally, you can garnish with extra citrus zest or a dollop of whipped cream.

Tips:

- Ensure that the butter is fully softened before creaming it with the sugar for a smoother texture.

- Grate the citrus zest finely to avoid large chunks in the pudding.

- Separate the eggs carefully to prevent any yolk from mixing with the whites if you decide to beat the whites separately for more fluffiness.

- Sift the flour and baking powder together to avoid lumps in the batter.

- Gradually add the milk to the batter, mixing continuously to prevent curdling.

- Bake the pudding in a water bath for even cooking and a smooth, creamy consistency.

- Serve the pudding warm with a sprinkle of additional citrus zest or a dollop of whipped cream for extra indulgence.

Warm citrus pudding is a refreshing and zesty treat that brings together the tartness of citrus fruits with a smooth, creamy base. Follow these simple steps, and you'll have a delicious dessert that will impress your family and friends. Enjoy this warm, tangy delight that is sure to brighten up any day.
