Time 1h20m

Yield 10

Number Of Ingredients 13

2 tablespoons butter
1 teaspoon white vinegar
½ cup milk
1 cup superfine sugar
2 eggs
1 tablespoon apricot jelly
1 ⅓ cups cake flour
1 teaspoon baking soda
1 pinch salt
1 cup heavy cream
½ cup butter
½ cup white sugar
½ cup water, orange juice, or sherry

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). In a small saucepan over low heat, melt 2 tablespoons butter or margarine together with vinegar and milk. Remove from heat, and set aside. Meanwhile, sift flour, baking soda, and salt together into a separate bowl.
  • Beat 1 cup sugar and eggs with an electric mixer on high speed until fluffy and light colored, about 5 minutes. Gradually mix in the apricot jam. Fold the dry ingredients into the egg mixture alternately with warmed milk mixture using a spatula. Pour batter into a greased, 1 quart oven-proof baking dish.
  • Bake approximately 45 minutes, or until a knife inserted into the center comes out clean.
  • Place cream, butter, 1/2 cup sugar, and water in a saucepan and stir over moderate heat until the butter has melted and sugar is dissolved. Do not allow the mixture to boil.
  • Remove pudding from the oven, pierce several times with a skewer or fork, and pour the hot cream mixture immediately over the pudding. Serve hot or cold.
