Ingredients
- 125 g unsalted butter, at room temperature
- 100 g (½ cup) soft brown sugar
- 4 eggs, at room temperature
- 250 ml (1 cup) milk
- 250 g (1 cup) sweetened red bean paste, plus extra to serve
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- 270 g self-raising flour
- 1 tsp baking powder
Matcha cream
- 2 tsp matcha powder
- 1 tbsp icing sugar
- 300 ml thickened cream
Toffee sauce
- 220 g (1 cup) soft brown sugar
- 300 ml thickened cream
- 60 g butter
- ½ tsp flaked sea salt
Instructions
- Preheat a fan forced oven to 170˚C. Grease and line the base of a 20 cm square cake tin with baking paper.
- Place the butter and sugar in the bowl of an electric stand mixer fitted with the paddle attachment. Beat for 5 minutes or until light and fluffy. Add the eggs one at a time, beating well between each addition.
- Add the milk, red bean paste and vanilla and mix well. Sift in the flour and baking powder and fold in until just combined.
- Pour the batter into the lined tin and bake for 35 minutes or until a skewer withdraws clean.
- Meanwhile, for the matcha cream, whisk the ingredients together in a large bowl until soft peaks form. Refrigerate until ready to serve.
- For the toffee sauce, place all the ingredients in a small saucepan and bring to a simmer over medium heat.
- Pierce the warm cake all over with a skewer and pour a little of the sauce over the pudding so that it soaks in.
- Serve squares of the pudding with the matcha cream and a scoop of red bean paste.
