Lemon Pudding Cake

10 ingredients
1 steps

Ingredients

  • 3 tablespoons (43 grams) butter, room temperature
  • 3/4 cup (170 grams) granulated sugar, divided
  • 2-3 fresh lemons, zested and juiced (about 1 tablespoon zest and 1/2 cup juice)
  • 3 large eggs, separated
  • 1/4 cup (30 grams) all-purpose flour
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1/8 teaspoon salt
  • 1 cup (235 ml) milk
  • 1/8 teaspoon cream of tartar
  • 2 quarts (about 2 liters) boiling water

Directions

  1. 1
    {"0":"Preheat oven to 325 degrees F (160 degrees C). Grease a 9-inch round baking dish.","2":"In a large bowl, beat together the butter, 1\/2 cup sugar, and lemon zest until light and fluffy. Add in the egg yolks one at a time, beating between each addition. Mix in the flour, vanilla, and salt. Stir in the lemon juice and milk. The batter will be very runny. Set aside.","4":"In a large mixing bowl, beat the egg whites until soft peaks form. Add in the cream of tartar and remaining 1\/4 cup sugar and continue beating until stiff peaks form. Mix 1\/3 of the egg whites into the cake batter until completely mixed. Fold in the remaining egg whites.","6":"Transfer batter into the prepared baking dish (the cake will not rise so it is okay to fill the dish to the top, if necessary). Place the baking dish into a larger baking or roasting dish and add boiling water in the large dish until it reaches halfway up the outside of the batter-filled pan. Carefully transfer to the oven and bake for 50-60 minutes, or until the top becomes golden and the middle of the cake barely jiggles when shaken.","8":"Cool the cake for 45 minutes to 1 hour before cutting or serving to allow the cake to set. Sprinkle with powdered sugar, if desired."}
