GINGER SYRUP SPONGE PUDDING
Ingredients
to prepare Ginger Syrup Sponge Pudding
- 60g stem ginger, plus 3 tbsp syrup from the jar
- 3 tbsp golden syrup
- 225g Stork spread, plus extra for greasing
- 225g Billingtons Golden caster sugar
- 225g self-raising flour
- 1 ½ tsp baking powder
- Pinch of salt
- 4 medium eggs beaten
- 3 tbsp Just Milk
How to Make
This wholesome sponge pudding is a delicious sweet fix. After preparing, leave the pudding to steam for a few hours in order for the wonderful ginger aromas to develop. Enjoy with vanilla ice cream or fresh custard.
2.In a separate bowl, use and electric hand whisk to cream the Stork and sugar together until pale and fluffy. Sift in the flour, baking powder and salt and beat again. Gradually beat in the eggs and milk until smooth.
3.Pour the mixture into the Pyrex dish and smooth the top with the back of a spoon. Grease a large sheet of baking parchment with Stork then make a fold down the centre to form a pleat (the will allow the mixture to expand during cooking). Lay the paper on top, buttered side down, and tie securely with string. Tie an extra loop of string to the top to form a handle; this will make the pudding easier to lift out of the pan at the end of cooking.
4.Place an upturned saucer in the bottom of a large pan and rest the pudding on top. Pour in enough boiling water to come halfway up the side of the Pyrex dish. Put a lid on the pan, set it over a medium-high heat and steam for 2 ½ hours, topping up with boiling water as needed.
5.Carefully remove the pudding from the pan and unwrap. Run a small knife around the inside to loosen the pudding then turn out onto a serving dish.
6.Serve with plenty of custard or ice cream enjoy.
