LEMON PUDDING CAKE



Lemon Pudding Cake image

A moist lemon cake sits atop a delicate custard in this recipe, adapted from Ian Knauer's book "The Farm." The magic is in the cooking: Setting a 8-inch baking dish in a roasting pan filled halfway with water allows the custard to form while the top bakes. It's an excellent party dish, warm and just out of the oven. But it's equally as good out of the fridge, its flavors melded and mellowed.

Time 1h

Yield 6 to 8 servings

Number Of Ingredients 8

4 large eggs, separated
1 teaspoon finely grated lemon zest
1/3 cup lemon juice
1 tablespoon unsalted butter, melted
1 cup sugar
1/2 cup all-purpose flour
1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
1 1/2 cups whole milk

Steps:

  • Place a large roasting pan on a rack in the center of the oven. Fill the pan halfway with water. With the pan inside, heat the oven to 350 degrees. Butter an 8-inch square or round baking dish.
