I got my inspiration for this recipe from the Christian Home Cookbook. This pudding would be really good with a dollop of whipped cream or a scoop of ice cream. Sometimes this pudding is called 'Poor Man's Pudding'..Ingredients:
1 cup flour
2 tsp baking powder
2 tsp sugar
dash of salt
dash of cinnamon
dash of ground nutmeg..I like to grate my own
3 tbsp butter
3/4 cup raisins..next time I shall add chunks of apple with the raisins
1/2 cup buttermilk or milk
1. Mix together flour, sugar, baking powder, salt, cinnamon and nutmeg.
2. Cut in butter till well blended.
3. Mix in raisins.
4. Gradually add milk stirring lightly with fork only until blended.
5. Spoon the batter into a greased 1 1/2 qt baking dish. I used my corning ware dish.
The batter will be quite thick.
6. Mix sauce and pour over the batter.
Sauce:
Whisk together:
3/4 cup brown sugar
1 tbsp butter
1 3/4 cups boiling water
Bake in preheated oven at 375ยบ for 30 min.
Let cool in baking dish for 15 min before serving. This allows the sauce to thicken up a bit.
Best served warm.
this one is very interesting- do you think one could substitute craisens?
ReplyDeletei think my husband would much prefer this one to the chocolate one that i make.
ReplyDeletehe loves anything raisin. look deelish.
My mom used to make this all the time, except her version was called 1/2 hour pudding. It's just as good cold too! We used to have it for school lunches the next day - you just couldn't fit enough in the small tupperware containers that we had!
ReplyDeleteOh this looks like my kind of dessert. My mom used to make a pudding like this. i will be making this when I have my dad over...Scot is not a raisin man, but my dad is. Kathy
ReplyDeleteOh YUM! I just love these self-saucing pudding cakes. Thanks so much for posting, can't wait to make this.
ReplyDeleteBetty,I'm already craving homemade desserts! I will make this whe I get home.
ReplyDeleteMy mom used to make this, it was one of my favs! Haven't had it in years.
ReplyDeleteWe had a version of this pudding called batter pudding - it was one of our favourite desserts as children. When I make it the batter is quite runny and actually floats on top of the sauce when baked. It is good although I find it a little sweet now - a little ice cream on top mellows the flavour a bit.
ReplyDeleteThis sounds good and is low in sugar! I will try it! Thanks! ♥
ReplyDeleteOh Betty I wish I had a serving of this right now!! Looks great...
ReplyDeleteI made this today for my father, the raison fanatic, and he adored it. Really delishious warm.
ReplyDeleteAnita..craisins would be great as a substitute.
ReplyDeleteI just took it out of the oven, and wow, it smells delish!!! One look at the picture and I just knew I had to make it ! Thanks for sharing!!
ReplyDeleteI added apples and it was a big hit around here!
