Ingredients
- 2 cups Fresh cranberries
- 1.5 cups Granulated sugar
- 1.5 cups All-purpose flour
- 1.5 teaspoons Baking powder
- 0.5 teaspoons Salt
- 1 cup Whole milk
- 0.5 cups Unsalted butter (melted)
- 1 teaspoons Vanilla extract
- 1 cup Heavy cream
- 2 tablespoons Powdered sugar (optional for topping)
Directions
Step 1
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease an 8x8-inch baking dish or similar-sized pan.
Step 2
In a medium bowl, combine the fresh cranberries and 1/2 cup of granulated sugar. Mix well and set aside to allow the cranberries to macerate.
Step 3
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, salt, and the remaining 1 cup of granulated sugar.
Step 4
Gradually stir in the milk, melted butter, and vanilla extract until the batter is smooth and free of lumps.
Step 5
Transfer the batter into the prepared baking dish, spreading it evenly.
Step 6
Spoon the sugared cranberries over the top of the batter, ensuring they are evenly distributed.
Step 7
Bake the pudding in the preheated oven for 40-45 minutes, or until the top is golden brown and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
Step 8
While the pudding is baking, prepare the whipped cream by beating the heavy cream with powdered sugar (if using) in a chilled bowl until soft peaks form.
Step 9
Once baked, allow the cranberry pudding to cool for about 15 minutes before serving.
Step 10
Slice into portions, top with a dollop of fresh whipped cream, and enjoy!
