You should have the basic ingredients for this recipe in your pantry, bonus if you have a lemon tree as it is a great way to use up lemons! There is something so comforting about having a warm pudding after dinner.

The debate is whether you serve your lemon delicious dessert with ice cream or cream, or you could just go for both! In the photos I have made the pudding in separate ramekins but you could easily make this in one dish too.

Common questions about Lemon Delicious:

What size dish should I use? You can either make this in individual ramekins or one large dish. I would suggest a standard 27 x 18cm oven proof dish.

Could I use limes instead of lemons? Absolutely! If you or someone you know has an abundance of limes, feel free to use those up instead of lemons!

A light and fluffy lemon pudding with a sweet and tangy sauce.

Ingredients

75g (2.7oz) butter, melted
1 Tbsp lemon zest
⅓ cup lemon juice
3 eggs, separated
1 cup milk
1 cup caster sugar
½ cup self-raising flour
1 Tbsp icing sugar
Cream or ice cream, to serve

Instructions

Preheat oven to 170°C fan bake.
Grease an ovenproof dish or 4-6 ramekins (Depending on size).
Place the butter, lemon zest, lemon juice, egg yolks and milk in a bowl then whisk to combine. Sift in caster sugar and flour then stir again.
In a clean bowl use a mixer or electric beater to beat egg whites until soft peaks form. Fold half of the egg white into the lemon mixture then gently fold in the rest.
Spoon mixture into prepared dish or ramekins and place in a larger baking dish. Pour enough boiling water into baking dish to come halfway up the sides of the smaller dishes. Bake for 25-30 minutes or until golden and just set. Dust with icing sugar and serve with cream or ice cream.

Notes

This also works really well with lime juice and zest.
