Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 cup (125g) all-purpose flour, sifted
  • 1 teaspoon (4g) baking powder
  • 3/4 cup (150g) caster sugar
  • 4 tablespoons (55g) unsalted butter, melted and slightly cooled
  • 1 large egg, beaten (room temperature)
  • 1/3 cup (80ml) whole milk
  • 2 teaspoons finely grated lemon zest (from about 2 lemons)
  • 1/3 cup (65g) caster sugar (for lemon sauce)
  • 1/3 cup (80ml) fresh lemon juice
  • 1 cup (240ml) boiling water

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (180°C) and lightly butter your baking dish.
  2. In a medium bowl, sift together the flour, baking powder, and 3/4 cup caster sugar.
  3. Add melted butter, beaten egg, whole milk, and lemon zest to the dry ingredients. Stir gently until just combined.
  4. Pour the batter evenly into the prepared baking dish and smooth the top.
  5. In a small bowl, combine 1/3 cup caster sugar with fresh lemon juice and sprinkle evenly over the batter. Do not stir.
  6. Carefully pour boiling water over the back of a large spoon onto the pudding to avoid disturbing the batter.
  7. Bake for 35-40 minutes until the top is golden and springy and the sauce is bubbling around the edges.
  8. If the pudding is still wobbly, bake for an additional 5 minutes.
  9. Let the pudding rest for 5 minutes before serving to thicken the sauce.

Notes

Do not stir the lemon sauce into the batter to maintain the self-saucing effect. Use fresh lemons for best flavor. If sauce is too tart, dust with powdered sugar. Avoid overmixing batter to keep pudding tender.
