Buttermilk Pudding Cakes Recipes

BUTTERMILK PUDDING CAKE WITH MAPLE RASPBERRIES

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350°F with rack in middle. Butter a 1 1/2-quart shallow baking dish.
• Whisk together flour and salt in a large bowl. Whisk together buttermilk, butter, yolks, and 1/3 cup sugar in a separate bowl, then stir into flour mixture.
• Beat egg whites with an electric mixer at medium speed until frothy. Increase speed to medium-high and add remaining 1/3 cup sugar, 1 tablespoon at a time, beating until whites just hold stiff peaks.
• Stir about one third of whites into batter to lighten, then fold in remaining whites gently but thoroughly. Pour batter into baking dish and bake in a water bath until puffed and golden-brown, 40 to 50 minutes. Cool slightly, 10 to 15 minutes.
• Toss raspberries with maple syrup and serve with warm pudding cake.

LEMON BUTTERMILK PUDDING CAKE

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.
• Beat the egg whites and when soft peaks begin to form, gradually beat in about half the sugar and set aside.
• (Tip: If using an electric mixer, use the lowest speed possible; high speeds break down the egg protein and don't get job done much faster.) In a separate bowl, beat yolk and butter; gradually add the remaining sugar and when well combined add the remaining ingredients, beating until smooth.
• Fold the egg whites into the cake mixture with a whisk or spatula, and pour into a non reactive 8x8 baking pan that has been sprayed or buttered.
• Set the pan with the cake in a larger pan; pour hot water in the larger pan half way up the sides of the cake pan and carefully place in the oven.
• Bake for 45 minutes until top is lightly browned.

BUTTERMILK PUDDING CAKES

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 425 degrees with a rack positioned in the top third of the oven.
• Sift together flour and baking powder in a large bowl. In another large bowl beat eggs until creamy and yellow. Whisk in buttermilk, vanilla, 5 tablespoons plus 1 teaspoon sugar, and butter (mixture will look curdled and broken). Slowly add flour and whisk until batter is smooth and combined.
• Spray 8 standard-size (3-ounce) nonstick muffin pan cups with nonstick cooking spray. Divide batter evenly among prepared muffin pan cups, filling about two-thirds full. Transfer to oven and bake until sides of cakes are evenly browned (check by inserting a knife tip between the rim of cake and muffin cup, pulling gently to expose side of cake), about 9 minutes. If cakes are not evenly browned, they will not hold together when inverted. Continue baking, checking every minute, until evenly browned.
• Meanwhile, place raspberries in a medium bowl; add remaining 4 tablespoons sugar and gently toss to coat.
• Invert cakes onto eight individual plates. Place berries on top and alongside cakes; serve with whipped cream, if desired.

LEMON-BUTTERMILK PUDDING CAKE

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 325°. Butter a 2 quart souffle dish or six 6 oz ramekins or eight 4 oz ramekins.
• Choose a baking pan or baking dish for a water bath large enough to accommodate the souffle dish or the ramekins with out touching, and deep enough to hold water that will reach ¾ of the way up the sides of the molds when added.
• Pour enough water into the pan to reach about halfway up the sides of the pan, and place in the oven while it is heating.
• In a bowl, whisk together the sugar, flour, and salt.
• In another bowl, whisk together the egg yolks, buttermilk, lemon zest and juice until blended.
• Make a well in the flour mixture and pour in the egg yolk mixture; whisk the mixture together until smooth.
• Place egg whites in a bowl; using a mixer fitted with the whisk attachment, beat the whites until they hold soft peaks.
• Scoop 1/3 of the whites onto the yolk mixture and stir in to lighten the mixture.
• Gently fold in the remaining whites, being careful not to deflate the batter.
• Transfer batter to prepared dish or dishes.
• Pull out oven rack holding the water bath and place the mold(s) in the bath.
• Pour in more water if necessary to reach ¾ of the way up the sides of the mold(s).
• Bake about 30-40 minutes for the souffle dish or 25-35 minutes for the ramekins.
• Remove from the oven and serve hot, or let cool on a wire rack and serve warm or at room temperature.

MEYER LEMON BUTTERMILK PUDDING CAKE WITH FRESH BERRIES

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350°F. Butter 8x8x2-inch glass baking dish. Blend buttermilk, 1/2 cup sugar, egg yolks, lemon juice, flour, butter, and salt in blender until smooth. Transfer buttermilk mixture to medium bowl. Using electric mixer, beat egg whites in large bowl until soft peaks form. Gradually add remaining 1/2 cup sugar and beat until stiff but not dry. Gently fold buttermilk mixture into whites in 3 additions (batter will be runny).
• Pour batter into prepared dish. Place dish in roasting pan. Pour enough hot water into roasting pan to come halfway up sides of dish. Bake until entire top is evenly browned and cake moves very slightly in center but feels slightly springy to touch, about 45 minutes. Remove dish from roasting pan.
• Cool cake completely in baking dish on rack. Refrigerate until cold, at least 3 hours and up to 6 hours. Spoon pudding cake out into shallow bowls. Pour cream around cake. Top with berries.
