Ingredients

Cake Batter

  • 1 cup all-purpose flour
  • 3/4 cup granulated sugar
  • 2 tsp baking powder
  • 1/2 cup unsalted butter, softened
  • 1/2 cup whole milk (or almond/oat milk)

Toffee Sauce

  • 3/4 cup dark brown sugar
  • 1 cup heavy cream


Instructions

  1. Preheat Oven and Prepare Baking Dish: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease a baking dish with butter or nonstick spray to prevent sticking and ensure even baking.
  2. Combine Dry Ingredients: In a mixing bowl, whisk together all-purpose flour, granulated sugar, baking powder, and a pinch of salt until evenly blended to lay the foundation of the cake batter.
  3. Cream Butter and Brown Sugar: In a separate bowl, cream the softened unsalted butter and dark brown sugar together until the mixture becomes fluffy, which helps to incorporate air for a light texture.
  4. Add Milk to Wet Mixture: Gradually pour the whole milk into the butter and sugar mixture, continuously mixing until the batter is smooth and evenly combined.
  5. Combine Wet and Dry Ingredients: Gently fold the dry flour mixture into the wet ingredients, careful not to overmix to keep the pudding tender.
  6. Bake the Batter: Pour the prepared batter into the greased baking dish and bake in the preheated oven for 30-35 minutes or until the top is golden brown and a toothpick inserted comes out clean.
  7. Prepare Toffee Sauce: While the pudding is baking, combine the heavy cream and dark brown sugar in a saucepan over medium heat. Stir continuously until the sugar has fully dissolved and the sauce is smooth and thickened slightly.
  8. Serve: Remove the pudding from the oven and serve warm. Drizzle generously with the homemade toffee sauce for a luscious finish.

Notes

  • You can substitute the whole milk with almond or oat milk for a dairy-free option.
  • Ensure the butter is softened to room temperature for easy creaming with sugar.
  • Do not overmix the batter when combining wet and dry ingredients to keep the pudding light and moist.
  • The toffee sauce can be made ahead and reheated gently before serving.
  • Serve with a scoop of vanilla ice cream or a dollop of whipped cream for extra indulgence.
