Raspberry Lemon Pudding Cake Recipes

LEMON PUDDING CAKES WITH SUGARED RASPBERRIES

Steps:

• Heat oven to 350 degrees. Butter 6 (8-ounce) ramekins. Place them in any large baking pan where they can sit without touching one another, such as a 9-by-13-inch pan.
• In a large bowl, whisk together butter, egg yolks, 3/4 cup sugar, buttermilk, lemon zest and juice, and salt until smooth. Whisk in the flour until well combined.
• Using an electric mixer (either handheld or a stand mixer fitted with the whisk attachment), beat egg whites on medium speed until they are thick, white and very foamy, 2 to 4 minutes. Increase speed to high and gradually beat in remaining 1/4 cup sugar, continuing to beat until stiff and glossy peaks form, about 2 to 3 minutes longer.
• Using a rubber spatula, gently fold about a third of the egg whites into the lemon mixture, taking care not to deflate the whites. When no white streaks remain, fold in remaining whites, working carefully. Stop folding when most of the second batch of whites are mixed in, but a few white streaks remain.
• Spoon the batter into the ramekins. Transfer the pan of ramekins to the oven. Carefully, so you don't splash the cakes, pour enough very hot tap water into the pan to come about halfway up the sides of the ramekins. The higher the water level, the more pudding and less cake you'll have.
• Bake until the puddings are puffed and lightly browned on top, 35 to 40 minutes. Take care not to overbake, or there won't be any pudding at the bottom of the ramekins. Carefully transfer the ramekins from the pan to a rack to cool for at least 15 minutes before serving. (The combination of tongs or a spatula, plus oven mitts, works well for moving the cakes.)
• As the cakes bake, mix the raspberries and a few pinches of sugar in a bowl, mashing the raspberries slightly to release their juices. Let the raspberries macerate until the sugar melts, about 15 minutes. Then, taste and stir in more sugar if the berries are very tart.
• Serve the cakes warm or at room temperature, with the sugared berries and some of their syrup.

LEMON PUDDING CAKE WITH RASPBERRY SAUCE

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 325 degrees. Whip the egg yolks and 1 cup of the sugar until it reaches the ribbon stage. Add the flour and mix well. Whisk in the lemon juice, salt and milk until completely combined. In a separate bowl, whip the egg whites until soft peaks form. Add a 1/2 cup of the sugar and beat until stiff peaks form. Gently fold the egg whites into the lemon mixture. Pour the batter into a plastic wrap-lined 9 by 13-inch pan and bake for 30 minutes, or until lightly browned. Remove the cake from the oven and let cool slightly, then refrigerate for at least 1 hour.
• To make the raspberry sauce: Reserve 16 raspberries for the garnish. Puree the remaining berries with the remaining 1/4 cup sugar for 2 minutes, or until smooth. Strain through a fine-mesh sieve.
• Place a piece of plastic wrap over the pudding cake and flip it onto a flat surface. Cut eight 3-inch circles with a ring cutter. Serve with sauce and garnish with raspberries.

• In a large bowl, beat the egg yolks and buttermilk with the remaining 1/2 cup sugar.
• Beat in the lemon peel, vanilla, salt, flour and baking powder.
• Gently stir in the raspberry mixture, then fold in the beaten egg whites.
• Spoon the batter evenly into the prepared cups.

STEAMED LEMON RASPBERRY SPONGE PUDDING

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 375 degrees F.
• Butter and sugar ramekins and place 5 or 6 berries in each one. With a whisk attachment, whip the yolks with 1/2 cup sugar until light and fluffy. Mix in the vanilla, melted butter, lemon zest, and buttermilk.
• Stir the dry ingredients together and slowly mix them into the yolks.
• In a separate bowl, whip the whites until stiff then fold them into the batter.
• Pour the batter into the prepared molds filling almost to the top. Place them in a water bath and cover with foil. Bake for 30 minutes. Remove from the oven and let set 5 minutes before turning the cakes out of their molds.
• To serve, mash the remaining raspberries with the 1 to 2 tablespoons of sugar to make a rough pureed mash. Stir 2 tablespoons sugar into the yogurt. Place the cake on a plate and ring it with the sweetened yogurt and drizzle some raspberry mash through the yogurt.

LEMON & RASPBERRY DOUGHNUT PUDDING

Steps:

• Heat the oven to 200C/180C fan/gas 6 and butter a 20 x 20cm baking dish. Quarter the raspberry jam doughnuts and arrange in overlapping layers in the prepared dish. Scatter over 100g raspberries.
• Heat the custard with the milk until steaming, then whisk through the lemon curd. Pour the lemon custard over the doughnuts, then leave to soak for 30 mins, ensuring some of the doughnuts stick out so they'll crisp up when baked.
• Scatter over another 50g raspberries and bake for 35-40 mins, or until golden brown and just set.
