Ingredients

• 180 grams All-purpose flour
• 100 grams Granulated sugar
• 1 teaspoon Salt
• 0.5 teaspoon Baking soda
• 60 grams Unsalted butter
• 240 milliliters Sourdough starter (active and bubbly)
• 120 milliliters Whole milk
• 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
• 1 large Egg

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 180°C (350°F) and grease an 8x8-inch (20x20 cm) baking pan or similar-sized dish.

Step 2

In a medium mixing bowl, combine the flour, granulated sugar, salt, and baking soda. Whisk until evenly mixed.

Step 3

In a separate small saucepan, melt the unsalted butter over low heat. Let it cool slightly.

Step 4

In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the sourdough starter, milk, vanilla extract, and the egg until smooth.

Step 5

Slowly drizzle the melted butter into the wet mixture while whisking continuously.

Step 6

Gently fold the dry ingredients into the wet mixture using a spatula. Mix just until no dry streaks remain; avoid overmixing to keep the batter light and fluffy.

Step 7

Pour the batter into the prepared baking pan and spread it evenly using the spatula.

Step 8

Bake in the preheated oven for 28-32 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.

Step 9

Remove the pudding from the oven and allow it to cool slightly in the pan for about 10 minutes.

Step 10

Serve warm as is, or with a drizzle of caramel sauce, chocolate sauce, or a dollop of whipped cream for extra flavor.
