Steamed Ginger Pudding with Vanilla Ice Cream
Steamed ginger pudding is a delicious dessert made with ginger, flour, sugar, eggs, and butter. It's a moist and fluffy cake that's steamed instead of baked, giving it a unique texture and flavor. The pudding is often served with a side of creamy vanilla ice cream.
Ingredients
- 1 cup all-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
- 1/2 teaspoon ground ginger
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 1/2 cup unsalted butter softened
- 1/2 cup brown sugar
- 2 eggs
- 1/4 cup milk
- 2 tablespoons molasses
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- Vanilla ice cream for serving
Instructions
- In a mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, ginger, and salt.
- In a separate bowl, cream the butter and sugar together until light and fluffy. Add in the eggs, one at a time, beating well after each addition.
- In a small bowl, whisk together the milk, molasses, and vanilla extract.
- Add the dry ingredients to the butter mixture in three parts, alternating with the milk mixture. Beat well after each addition, until the batter is smooth and well combined.
- Grease a pudding basin or a heatproof bowl with butter. Pour the batter into the bowl, smoothing the top with a spatula.
- Cover the bowl with a lid or a sheet of foil, making sure it's tightly sealed. Place the bowl in a steamer basket or on a trivet set in a large pot filled with boiling water.
- Steam the pudding for 1 to 1 1/2 hours, or until a skewer inserted into the center comes out clean. Make sure to check the water level in the pot occasionally and add more boiling water as needed.
- Once done, remove the pudding from the steamer and let it cool for a few minutes. Then, turn it out onto a serving plate.
- Serve the steamed ginger pudding warm, with a scoop of vanilla ice cream on top.
