Ingredients
- 100 grams unsalted butter
- 150 grams caster sugar
- 3 tablespoons golden syrup
- 200 grams plain flour
- 2 teaspoons ginger, ground
- 1.5 teaspoons baking powder
- 200 milliliters milk
- 2 eggs, lightly beaten
- 3 pieces stem ginger, finely chopped
- 100 grams soft brown sugar
- 300 milliliters boiling water
Directions
Step 1
Preheat your oven to 180°C (350°F) or 160°C (325°F) fan and lightly butter a deep 1.5-liter ovenproof dish.
Step 2
In a mixing bowl, cream together the butter and caster sugar until pale and fluffy. Stir in the golden syrup.
Step 3
In a separate bowl, sift together the plain flour, ground ginger, and baking powder.
Step 4
Gradually alternate folding the dry ingredients and the milk into the butter mixture until a smooth batter forms.
Step 5
Pour in the beaten eggs and mix until fully combined. Stir in the finely chopped stem ginger.
Step 6
Spoon the batter evenly into the prepared dish, smoothing the top with a spatula.
Step 7
For the sauce, sprinkle the soft brown sugar evenly over the surface of the batter.
Step 8
Gently pour the boiling water over the back of a spoon onto the batter to avoid disturbing the surface. Do not stir.
Step 9
Carefully transfer the dish to the preheated oven and bake for 35-40 minutes, or until the top is golden brown and the pudding has risen.
Step 10
Remove from the oven and let sit for 5 minutes. As it cools slightly, the toffee sauce will thicken at the bottom.
Step 11
Serve warm with a scoop of vanilla ice cream or a drizzle of cream for an indulgent dessert.
