Gran’s ultimate lemon delicious

With almost 1 lemon per serve baked into this pudding, it truly earns the title of ‘ultimate lemon delicious’. Save those old wrinkly lemons headed to the compost or bin and refresh them with this pudding instead!

Ingredients

  • 2 tbsp butter, softened, plus extra for greasing
  • ¾ cup caster sugar
  • 2 tbsp plain flour
  • ⅓ cup self-raising flour
  • 5 lemons, juiced and finely zested (approx. 300 ml of juice in total)
  • 4 eggs, separated
  • 2 cups (500 ml) milk
  • Thickened cream, ice-cream, and fresh raspberries, to serve (optional)

Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven to 180˚C (fan-forced). Grease a 28 cm oval baking dish with butter and set aside.
  2. In a large mixing bowl, use a wooden spoon to beat the butter and sugar until lightly creamed. Stir through the flours, lemon juice and zest, eggs yolks and milk and beat well to combine. Place the egg whites in a second, clean bowl and use an electric mixer to whisk to soft peaks. Gently fold the beaten egg whites into the pudding batter, then transfer to the prepared baking dish.
  3. Bake for 30 minutes, or until lightly browned. Remove the pudding from the oven and allow to cool slightly.
  4. Serve Gran’s ultimate lemon delicious with thickened cream, ice cream and fresh raspberries, if you like!
