Steamed Pudding Recipe: A Classic Dessert For Any Occasion

Introduction

Ingredients

• 1 cup all-purpose flour
• 1 teaspoon baking powder
• 1/4 teaspoon salt
• 1/2 cup unsalted butter, softened
• 1/2 cup granulated sugar
• 2 eggs
• 1/4 cup milk
• 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
• 1/2 cup raisins
• 1/2 cup chopped walnuts

Instructions

1. In a medium-sized bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, and salt. Set aside.
2. In a separate large bowl, beat the butter and sugar until light and fluffy. Add the eggs, one at a time, and beat until well combined.
3. Add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients in three parts, alternating with the milk. Mix until just combined.
4. Stir in the vanilla extract, raisins, and chopped walnuts.
5. Grease a 1-quart pudding basin with butter.
6. Pour the batter into the pudding basin and smooth the top with a spatula.
7. Cover the pudding basin with aluminum foil and tie a string around the top to secure it.
8. Place the pudding basin in a large pot with a lid. Fill the pot with enough water to come halfway up the sides of the pudding basin.
9. Cover the pot with a lid and bring the water to a boil over medium-high heat.
10. Reduce the heat to low and simmer the pudding for 2 hours, adding more water as needed to keep the water level halfway up the sides of the pudding basin.
11. Remove the pudding basin from the pot and let it cool for 10 minutes.
12. Remove the foil and invert the pudding onto a plate.
13. Serve warm with whipped cream or custard.
